Strahan introduced up the subject through the media interview, stating, “Let’s talk about the economy. That is the top issue for voters out there. 74% of voters said the past year, they’ve had to cut back on groceries because of the rising costs of course. And a lot of those voters, they’re concerned that if they cast a vote for Kamala Harris, that she’s responsible for that,” Strahan acknowledged.
“So how do you reach those voters? What do you say to the voters who may blame her for the economy right now?”
Walz responded, “Well, we talk to ‘em about, what are the policies that are going to make a difference? And we see some of the data, but data doesn’t impact people in their daily lives, going to the grocery store. You see false information, whether it’s bird flu impacting eggs.” He went on to say price-gouging and Harris’ proposed tax cuts.
“But the reality for most people, if those costs are up, they want to know what you’re going to do about it. I think that’s why she’s focusing on making sure, whether it’s making sure homeownership is more affordable, tax cuts. There’s a price gouging piece of this,” he stated.
