Voters are worried about inflation -- and they think the White House is making it worse.
A new Fox Business poll finds that when it comes to rising prices, twice as many think the Biden administration’s actions are hurting rather than helping.
In addition, by a 25-point margin, voters believe President Biden’s proposed social spending plan would push inflation higher and by 6 points they think it would hurt the economy.
"One thing the president has going for him is low expectations," says Democratic pollster Chris Anderson, who along with Republican counterpart Daron Shaw, conducts Fox polls. "If the spending plans start to have positive impacts in people’s lives, maybe some will reconsider their view of Biden."
INFLATION IS REAL. SO WHY IS THE LIBERAL MEDIA STILL LYING ABOUT IT?
About 4 in 10 say inflation is the biggest issue facing the economy. That’s more than double the number who say the deficit or income inequality. Fewer than 1 in 10 say supply chain issues, labor shortages, government regulations, or big tech monopolies.
