Discontent over skyrocketing inflation is the most important issue for voters heading into this year’s midterm election, Frank Luntz told CNBC on Friday.

“We’re not just anxious anymore. This country is getting angry,” the GOP pollster said. “They’re going to take that anger out at the ballot box in November.”

“The challenge is you can’t spend your way out of it,” he noted. “On the issue of inflation, spending more money makes the problem worse.”
