KEN BLACKWELL: Democratic 'Affordability’ Message A Joke
By Ken Blackwell
Published on March 4, 2026.
The Democrats are using the term "affordability" as their campaign pitch for the upcoming midterm elections as an excuse for their missteps in their approach to high prices. President Donald Trump, who has been criticized for creating high prices, has been praised for his policies, including a 22% increase in food prices, a 31% rise in gas prices, and a 115% increase increase in home prices. These criticisms should be accompanied by apologies for allowing in an influx of illegal immigrants and handing antitrust enforcement to left-wing activists like Lina Khan. Meanwhile, Trump has been credited with keeping inflation under control, controlling inflation under 3% or lower since his presidency. He has also made American life more affordable by closing the southern border, deporting nearly 700,000 illegal immigrants, and convincing another 2.2 million to leave voluntarily. Tax reforms have also been implemented, including the elimination of Obamacare subsidies and making interest on loans for American-made cars tax deductible.
