Poll: Trust in Trump High on Economy
The story reports:
“Seven of 10 Americans say the economy is getting worse and 47% trust Republican front-runner and former President Donald Trump to fix it, a margin 11 points better than President Joe Biden, according to a USA Today/Suffolk University poll released Wednesday.
The news gets more dire for Biden, with 34% of Democrats saying the economy is getting worse, according to the survey. Further, 46% of Independents trust Trump more to fix the economy vs. 26% to Biden.
The Trump campaign touted the poll results in a Thursday morning email: “USA Today: “President Joe Biden is selling an economic rebound. But most Americans aren’t buying it, according to an exclusive poll from the Suffolk University Sawyer Business School and USA TODAY.”
Way back there in the stone age of 1992, Bill Clinton guru James Carville said of the issues in that showdown year between Clinton and incumbent President George H.W. Bush: “It’s the economy, stupid.”
Carville was right then – and the same is true today. And as is being headlined over at USA Today and Newsmax, it’s still the economy, stupid.
