Trump calls "affordability" a Democrat scam as new polls show his economic edge slipping — then appears to nod off during a Cabinet meeting. Meanwhile Pete Hegseth escalates his defense of the controversial narco-boat strikes, insisting the U.S. has "only just begun" and denying he saw survivors. Democrats say critical intel is being withheld, and Senator Mark Kelly hits back after Trump and Hegseth call for extreme punishment over his lawful orders. A chaotic day across the White House, Pentagon, and economy message war.
