Liz Peek Warns Democrat Win Would Add $25 Trillion, Not Cut Costs

Liz Peek argues Democrats are falsely campaigning on affordability and would instead use a congressional comeback to investigate President Donald Trump rather than lower household costs.
Her case centers on spending and regulation: she says a $40 trillion national debt is already keeping interest rates and mortgages high, and Medicare-for-all alone could cost $25 trillion to $35 trillion over 10 years.
On housing and energy, Peek says Democratic plans would collide with environmental and labor allies, while failing to fully back fossil-fuel production that she argues is needed to keep prices down.
She frames the midterms as a choice between preserving Trump-era moves on border security, energy output and curbs on DEI programs, or reopening fights that would bring "chaos, not affordability."
