US President Trump stated that the 2026 midterms will revolve around prices. Economic data shows that high prices during Biden's term are starting to decline.

In an interview with Politico, Trump said, "I believe my economic message will be positively received in the 2026 midterms." He noted that energy prices have significantly dropped.

Trump also addressed the risk of a government shutdown, emphasizing the need to end the "filibuster" in Congress. He stated that removing this practice would open the way for other priorities.

Recent data indicates that the US economy is performing better than expected. However, many Americans report struggling to meet basic needs like food and healthcare.
