A new CBS News/YouGov poll showed that Americans are increasingly critical of Trump’s handling of the economy, and that more people are blaming him than a month earlier. It surveyed 2,410 U.S. adults from April 8 to 11.

When asked whose policies are more responsible for the state of the economy, 54% said they believe Trump’s policies are more to blame. Only 21% said they believe Biden’s policies are to blame. 20% said both of their policies are equally to blame, while 5% said neither are to blame for the state of the economy.

This compares to a March CBS News poll, when 38% of respondents said they blamed Biden for inflation, while only 34% blamed Trump.

A poll from YouGov and The Economist also showed that more Americans are blaming Trump for the economy.

    “Blame the economy on Biden”

    You mean the metrics showing that under Biden at the end we had one of our strongest economies in our nation’s history? Of course, all of the excess wealth was going to the 1%, so average dumb red hat wouldn’t have noticed.

    Polling is irrelevant now anyway. There won’t be another free election anytime soon.

    The economy is being used to distract from the crimes of his followers. Too much concentration on that and not enough on how he wants send US citizens to a prison in a foreign country without any real due process.

    Inflation drops precipitously under Biden, gets blamed for inflation.

    Make it make sense.
