So Trump had a bit of a meltdown yesterday on True Social and announced that he is going to refuse to sign some legislation that passed in a bipartisan manner that is meant to promote housing affordability, so to bring down housing costs, unless and until they pass his Save America Act, which is about sort of like...
Krystal Ball 2:25
vote-rigging in Republicans' favor. We can get into more of the details on that in just a moment. He was asked by the press, why would you do this? Why would you hold housing affordability hostage in favor of this, we'll charitably call it, voter reform legislation that they're putting? Let's take a listen to his response. Buying a home is unattainable for so many Americans. Is this election legislation more important to you than resolving the housing crisis?
Donald Trump 2:48
This is every election is important. We're doing very well. They want a lot of communists to come in. I'm saying it a little bit differently, but the people that they're pushing are communists.
Krystal Ball 2:59
So he just starts talking about communists winning and taking over, etc. I guess that's his rationale for why this legislation is so important to him. Let's put C2 up on the screen. This is one of the true socials he put out announcing this decision. Today's housing news conference and signing is hereby canceled. Until such time as we pass the desperately needed Save America Act, which I consider to be a national emergency. He put out another one. Let's put this up on the screen. The Elizabeth Pocahontas Warren-centric housing bill, which is of minor importance compared to lower interest rates and even FISA, pales in comparison to passing the Save America Act. That is what Americans, both Democrats, Republicans, and everyone else care about.
Krystal Ball 3:41
Not sure the polling reflects that one. Get the bad Republicans to approve it, or better yet, terminate the filibuster and approve it and everything else Republicans have dreamed of. The Democrats would do it in one hour, 100%. Republicans will feel very stupid if they don't do it first. I'll be watching, he says, Ryan, with tears in my eyes.
