It’s CONFUSING to say the least ….
We have one political place saying the American voter thinks the economy is GOOD….
And another saying Nope?
The Wall Street Journal has a poll that plays optimism on the economy (Biden & Co….Hurray!)
But?
The poll says what some of us believe IS the REAL issue for American consumers who are voters also…
Consumer PRICES…..
Which ARE climbing on the sneak…
This Wall Street Poll is showing a upward trend FOR Biden…..
A new Wall Street Journal poll finds 31% of voters in the survey “said the economy had gotten better over the past two years, during the majority of Biden’s tenure, a rise of 10 percentage points from a Journal poll in December.”
“And 43% said their personal finances are headed in the right direction, a 9-point increase from the prior survey.”
“But the recent spate of rising consumer prices still weighs heavily on the public. More than two-thirds of voters say inflation is headed in the wrong direction, despite ample data showing that it has moderated.”
On the election: “Trump holds a narrow lead over Biden in a head-to-head test of the expected 2024 presidential matchup, with 47% backing Trump and 45% picking Biden, a difference within the survey’s margin of error of plus or minus 2.5 percentage points. In December, Trump led by four points.”
