Jen Psaki Says Trump’s 24/7 News Dominance Drowns Out Democratic Policy Pitch

Summary
Psaki said Democrats are struggling to tell voters what they would deliver on health care and pre-K because Trump dominates the daily news cycle, even on her own MSNBC show.
Speaking with Terry Moran, she said the party has been slow to move from being simply anti-Trump to offering a clearer affirmative agenda that voters can recognize.
Psaki also suggested journalists share some blame, saying producers and hosts face a constant choice between covering the "Trump show" and giving airtime to policy plans.
The concern comes despite low Trump approval ratings and Democratic enthusiasm, underscoring a broader worry that dislike of Trump alone may not translate into a midterm advantage.
