A new CBS News/YouGov poll showed that Americans are increasingly critical of Trump’s handling of the economy, and that more people are blaming him than a month earlier. It surveyed 2,410 U.S. adults from April 8 to 11.
When asked whose policies are more responsible for the state of the economy, 54% said they believe Trump’s policies are more to blame. Only 21% said they believe Biden’s policies are to blame. 20% said both of their policies are equally to blame, while 5% said neither are to blame for the state of the economy.
This compares to a March CBS News poll, when 38% of respondents said they blamed Biden for inflation, while only 34% blamed Trump.
A poll from YouGov and The Economist also showed that more Americans are blaming Trump for the economy.
Remember when Republicans seemed concerned with reducing debt? Guess some may still say that but look what’s happening with spending now at the same time they are cutting everything, and still looking to increase tax cuts for top earners. 😩
Literally no. Please tell me when this was.
They’ve long said it, but never shown it through actions. Just used it as a cudgel to beat social programs.
every time we had a D president, the concern goes away it’s an R in office and then spending goes through the roof.
I remember when a democrat balanced the budget and gave the US a surplus from 1998-2001
And destroyed the economy as a result.
Public sector growth (federal budget surplus) is private sector atrophy.
You can keep the charade going through risky debt, like mortgage-backed securities. But since there’s no new money entering the economy, those will eventually collapse. And they did.
Whatever flaws the Clinton plan had, it was followed by 9/11 and GWB/Obama so I’m not sure how you go back and blame Clinton for that? This feels like blaming Clinton for not having a perfect solution.
