Trump Calls Dems’ Focus on Affordability a Scam; Election Results Ignite Debate

President Donald Trump voiced skepticism towards Democrats’ emphasis on affordability during his administration, framing it as a strategic deception. Speaking shortly after a special election victory secured by Republican candidate Matt Van Epps in Tennessee-7, Trump took to Truth Social to criticize the opponent, Rep. Aftyn Behn.

“The race should not be taken for granted,” advised Saltsman, adding that the focus on the outcome often overshadows important messages during campaigns.

This strategy proved effective as Van Epps won decisively against Behn in a district previously held by former President Trump.
