FOX Business' Stuart Varney discusses Trump seizing a 'political opportunity' as he is expected to visit the site of the Ohio train derailment in East Palestine
He's still in Poland, shoring up support for Ukraine
. He had to make a series of calls to officials in Ohio overnight, trying to show he's on top of it. But he's lost the political initiative on this. Trump will put on a big show. Ohio is Trump country. I don't know what he's going to say, but he has very sharp political instincts. He knows how to contrast the billions given to Ukraine but not to Ohio.
He knows the unpopularity of Biden going to Kyiv in a war zone, but not to the disaster in East Palestine. PETE BUTTIGIEG ADMITS SLOW RESPONSE TO OHIO TRAIN DERAILMENT: 'I COULD HAVE SPOKEN OUT SOONER'Now Trump wants to jump out front, riding to the rescue of everyday, regular Americans in need. East Palestine is his opportunity. And remember, he got there first so Biden can't be seen to go second and play catch-up.
