"Trump's advisers believe that while the national media is focused on the war, voters are more interested in pocketbook issues -- especially during tax season."
"It may be hard to talk about the economy without acknowledging the war, and economists' concern that it could slow economic growth for an extended period."
"Cabinet members will be urged to focus on several things Trump has done since taking office, including provisions in last year's 'big, beautiful' tax and spending bill."
"Officials are being urged to engage with alternative media platforms, such as podcasts, as part of a series of political meetings leading up to the election."
Trump's advisers prioritize the economy over other issues, believing it will influence voter sentiment in the November elections. Recent Democratic victories coincide with Trump's declining poll numbers, particularly regarding economic management. While the media focuses on the war, advisers argue voters care more about financial issues, especially during tax season. However, discussing the economy may require addressing concerns about the war's impact on growth. The Cabinet will be urged to highlight Trump's achievements and engage with alternative media platforms ahead of the elections.
