A new poll found more Americans are unhappy with Donald Trump’s stances on the economy and cost of living, with almost twice as many saying the president has helped raise prices rather than lowering them.
In a Yahoo/YouGov poll conducted Nov. 21-24, 49% of respondents said Trump’s actions since taking office for his second term in January have raised prices instead of cutting them. That’s a nearly two-to-one ratio to the 24% who said he’s done more to lower costs.
The survey also found more Americans (38%) blame Trump for inflation than his predecessor, former President Joe Biden (31%), despite the now-president campaigning on the economy during his successful 2024 presidential bid.
What planet do the 30% who responded that things are cheaper live on?
The 30% that are always against society progressing
hmm interesting point. They can afford the new price so it’s an advantage to them. A new way to keep the poor down.
There are the poor and destitute amongst that 30% too, they tell themselves that things aren’t more expensive because it will challenge their understanding of the world
They also just blame someone else. “Things are more expensive but they’d be worse if My Guy wasn’t in charge” is a big angle for these morons.
In the US at least, if you look at the entire TOP 30% of earners, the majority of that group would have five-figure incomes. Not destitute, but the exact kind of middle/working class incomes where people are getting beat down by prices.
^ This.
Planet dumbfuck of the Magasphere galaxy. The only verifiably flat planet.
