About this listen
Housing is too expensive. Everyone knows this. Democrats know that talking about it plays well with voters. And now – in a midterm election year – President Donald Trump seems to be focused on it, too.
His administration has recently started talking more about affordability. And they’re taking action with two new initiatives that aim to make buying a house easier.
