The Epstein files though should be front and center.
Why? Because they have zero excuses, and its an issue that strikes deep in the Red States. Make them change their votes or even just staying home would work. They have been hyped for years about how devastating these files will be (for Democrats). They have built up a fever about child sexual abuse. Yes of course, any sane person should be concerned. But it had become a crusade for the MAGA base. Again, mostly to bust things like the Pizza parlour Hillary child sex trafficking ring. But folks like MTG will NOT let this go.

And so Democrats MUST take advantage of the divide in the Republican party and embarrass them even more.

IMO even though gas and groceries are up because of Trump, its an issue that a lot of his base have accepted as a "pain now but riches later" reasoning from Dear Leader. Not all of them, but enough, who will be steered by influencers and RW news that will hammer home the message up to the midterms. Biden caused sooooooo much damage that Dear Leader has to do a deep clean of the system to weed out the deep state and get the economy booming more than it ever has!
