There's another article that just came out on Stitch Snitches by Gloria Shaw, citing a pro-Trump host on Real America's Voice who characterized the upcoming Oval Office address as a PR thing, meant basically as an acknowledgement that a lot of Trump's voters are frustrated that he keeps talking about, like,

international issues like Venezuela.

While everything is more expensive for them and they continue to lose their jobs and the economy is shit, to quote from that article, and this is them quoting a segment from that Real America's Voice podcast.

The remarks came during a segment on the water cooler with co-host David Brody, who teased the 9 p.m.

Eastern address as an elevated effort to regain the narrative on affordability.

The president is going to be in the Oval Office tonight, 9 p.m.

Eastern, Brody said.

Big address to the nation.

He's elevating this.

Clearly, this is to regain the narrative and explain more about the affordability issue in America and what this administration is doing.

I think they're trying to seize this right off the top and make sure it doesn't get away from them.

And the claims here is basically, like, this is Trump trying to steal a night march on the 2026 election cycle and reset a lot of what people are talking about around affordability.

Like, this argument is that, no, he's basically...

acknowledging that it's been kind of a mistake to focus so much on his overseas policies.

And he really needs to start promising that that golden age is actually going to come for his voters, which the numbers don't bear out, right?

Like almost no jobs have been added in the U.S.

since April.

There's about 700,000 more people unemployed now than there were in November of 2024.

Like things aren't good.

Inflation is still wild.
