Trump admits he’s failed to highlight his economic record at White House event

At a White House event honoring Hispanic Heritage Month, Donald Trump warned that he has badly mishandled the task of selling the United States' economic achievements. He asserted that the economy is performing at historic levels, yet the public remains unaware of his administration's stewardship. Polls indicate that many voters rate his economic management unfavorably, citing tariff policies and a conflict with Iran that have pushed energy prices higher.

In response, Trump outlined a 32-day nationwide campaign blitz, visiting states such as Texas, Oklahoma and Ohio to rally support for Republican candidates before the November 3 midterm elections. He pledged to improve messaging, insisting that promoting the record should be straightforward. The remarks underscore the political stakes of the upcoming congressional contests.
