I don't know how all the...

awarding of medals will help him convince voters that prices are coming down.

But it's all part of the show.

And he cares a lot about showmanship.

You could make the argument that Joe Biden didn't care enough about it.

She just kept coming back to it.

She gave a very clear message, which boils down to the president made your life less affordable, and it wasn't even legal.

You know, the tariffs weren't even legal.

She asked over and over again, is the president working for you?

It was very clear.

I think she did herself some good.

A lot of times the people who are chosen to give these responses, sometimes they flub them, and that's kind of the end of their career.

But I think this one served Spanberger very well.

She talked about herself.

She talked about all the

the victory she's won in Virginia and how she flipped seats by 17 points.

But she kept on coming back to the fact that Donald Trump hasn't helped you and doesn't even seem to care about helping you.

You know, Domenico makes a really important point here.

Usually when presidents have an approval rating as low as President Trump does and they know that affordability is the most important issue in the campaign and voters feel that prices are too high, usually—

in addition to trying to point out all the wonderful things they've done to get prices down, they try to relate to people and say, you know what, we have more work to do.
