More Americans trust Trump on economy, inflation than Biden: Poll

More Americans say they trust former President Trump on the economy and inflation than they do President Biden, a new poll found.

The ABC News/Ipsos poll found that economy and inflation were among the top issues for Americans in this upcoming presidential election, with more Americans saying they trust Trump on the issues than Biden. Eighty-eight percent of Americans in the survey said the economy was important when deciding whom to vote for, and 85 percent said the same for inflation.

Forty-six percent of surveyed Americans said they trust Trump on the economy, while 32 percent said the same of Biden. Another 21 percent said they trusted neither of the presidential front-runners on the issue.

Forty-four percent of surveyed Americans also said they trusted Trump to handle inflation, compared to the 30 percent who responded the same for Biden. Another 25 percent said they trusted neither candidate on the issue.

But, but, but, the Credentialed News keeps telling us that the Bidenconomy is doing great! And, it may be for the well off folks, the upper upper middle class and rich folks, but, for everyone else, we feel the pinch at the grocery store. When buying a car. When trying to get a house or apartment. Getting auto insurance. Paying the electric bill.

The poll also found that more respondents said they are not as well off financially since Biden took office than those who said they are better off under Biden. Forty-three percent of those surveyed said their financial situation is not as well off since Biden became president, 40 percent said they are about the same and 16 percent said they are better off.

If Trump would just stop going Typical Trump and focus on the economy, he would have an easy win come November, winning all the states he needs to win, and perhaps picking up a few other states. He needs those states he lost in 2020. Almost everything he says from now till voting ends should be on the economy, inflation, and energy costs.

He won’t, of course. He and his team will make things more difficult.
