  "account": "US President Donald Trump recently acknowledged that his administration's public relations efforts are not effectively conveying its accomplishments. This comes as the country approaches the midterm elections on November 3, with Trump's approval ratings remaining low. Many Americans are struggling with high living costs, economic uncertainty, and financial burdens, with over half unable to cover three months of expenses and a quarter unable to pay their monthly bills in full. A recent survey found that 65% of respondents blame Trump's policies for the high prices, particularly the rising fuel costs, which have increased by over $2 per gallon since last year.",
  "summary": "In two weeks, Americans will be voting for their parliament. The midterm elections are also seen as a referendum on the president's policies, with which many are dissatisfied. What are Trump's fellow countrymen concerned about?",
