President Donald Trump is touting a “golden age” for the US economy, but Bloomberg News White House Correspondent Catherine Lucey is on Bloomberg This Weekend and says persistent concerns over gas, food and housing costs are complicating that message ahead of the midterms. Lucey explains to hosts Joe Mathieu and Carol Massar that Republicans in competitive races face a difficult balance between embracing Trump’s economic record and addressing voters who remain frustrated about affordability and the economic fallout from the Iran war. -------- Watch Bloomberg Radio LIVE on YouTube Weekdays 7am-6pm ET Saturday & Sunday 7am-10am ET WATCH HERE: http://bit.ly/3vTiACF Follow us on X: https://twitter.com/BloombergRadio Subscribe to our Podcasts: Bloomberg Daybreak: http://bit.ly/3DWYoAN Bloomberg Surveillance: http://bit.ly/3OPtReI Bloomberg Intelligence: http://bit.ly/3YrBfOi Balance of Power: http://bit.ly/3OO8eLC Bloomberg Businessweek: http://bit.ly/3IPl60i Liste
