As the president prepares to address the nation, the economic reality facing everyday Americans is stark—and the polling reflects it. With economic approval hovering in the mid-30s and affordability still squeezing households, this episode cuts through the spin to examine why voters remain unhappy. From a mediocre jobs market and rising youth unemployment to AI-driven layoffs and tariff policies that raise manufacturing costs, the challenges are real and measurable. The message is simple: gimmicks won’t fix this. Acknowledging the problem and pivoting toward policies that actually bring prices down may be the only way forward—politically and economically.
