The Washington Examiner’s Byron York argued Monday that former President Donald Trump‘s discussion about “the actual issues” affecting voters is something that is not discussed much in the press.

The former president conducted a rally in Nevada on Sunday, with recent polling data indicating the state could flip red in the 2024 Electoral College should there be a rematch between Trump and President Joe Biden. During the rally, Trump promised to end taxes on tip wages while also promising to cut down taxes on service workers in the state.

“One thing that’s striking about that speech in Nevada that a number of people seem to have their hair on fire about, he spent an enormous amount of time on the border, on illegal immigration, on economic issues, on inflation,” York said on Fox News’s America Reports. “The thing that doesn’t get reported in Trump’s speeches is how much he talks about the actual issues that very closely mirror the polling on the issues people care most about.”

York also noted how Trump’s recent guilty verdict, which was announced at the end of last month, has not put a damper on support for the former president, even though it was “the biggest thing” that could have happened for the Democratic Party amid the presidential race. While there are still five months before the election, York contended the recent verdict has not become the “salvation” the party was likely hoping for.

York also noted the double standard the media tend to have when covering speeches by Trump and Biden, with the latter claiming in one story that he had a family member who was the victim of cannibals. York said even without comparing Trump and Biden, it is “a serious issue” how the president will tell incorrect stories of his past and not have the proper people fact check these stories.

Aside from Nevada, Trump also visited California, where he participated in three fundraisers over the course of three days. Among these was a private fundraiser that sold out, with tickets ranging from $5,000 to $250,000.

Polling data released after Trump’s guilty verdict indicated that the former president held a 1% lead over Biden in a hypothetical rematch. Previous polling data from April and May showed Trump with a 3% lead.
