Democrats Shouldn’t Be Afraid to Talk Indictment

Dan Pfeiffer: “The usual voices are already chastising Democrats for taking the bait. ‘Don’t talk about the indictment; talk about inflation.’ In theory, that advice might make sense. Voters — particularly the ones we need — care more about the cost of groceries, gas, and housing than Donald Trump’s efforts to cover up an affair seven years ago.”

“But the media environment operates differently — we don’t (yet) get to pick the issues that drive clicks and trends on social media. We respond to issues that the press and the algorithms force upon us. And not for nothing, but the indictment is a big deal for Trump, the Republican Party, and the state of politics in America.”
