The professionals who track American attitudes toward the economy say they can see the trouble coming.
Angry voters slammed by higher prices and scarred by two years of fighting the pandemic are poised to punish Democrats in midterm elections, according to some of the leading experts in consumer sentiment and behavior.
The widely watched University of Michigan consumer confidence survey recently touched its lowest level in almost 11 years. An Associated Press/NORC survey showed that almost 70 percent of Americans think the economy is in poor shape, and 81 percent of those in a poll released by CNBC see a recession coming this year. Gallup found the share of Americans citing inflation as the top issue is now at its highest level since the 1980s.
“The big run-up in gas and food and home prices has really caused great hardship for many households,” said Richard Curtin, a veteran economist who has run the University of Michigan consumer survey since 1976. “And the Biden administration made a critical error in saying it would be transient and people should just tough it out. It wasn’t transient. A lot of people couldn’t just tough it out. And it caused a big loss of confidence in [President Joe Biden’s] policies.”

Hahaha! I want ot punish Dems now! The fall is a long time from now!
Even a red wave will not help We the People unless the mcconnell/mccarthy nwo cabal is also removed!!!!! Too many gop members are as dirty as the devildemocommiecrats!!!!! All they do is bluster and bleat while doing nothing to drain the swamp because most of them are establishment TRAITORS who are part of the new world order conspiracy!!!!!!!!!!
Laurel, I agree, about 90% of the gop are establishment TRAITORS who are just as corrupt as devildemocommiecrats!!!!!!!!!!
“And it caused a big loss of confidence in [President Joe Biden’s] policies.”
WHAT A LOAD OF CRAP! Who the hell could have had any faith in Biden’s policies in the first place?
Like it or not, OIL is the lifeblood of the world economy. From day one the democrats decided to shut off America’s oil production and make us dependant on our enemies for oil. Every move these assholes make is to further weaken America.
I see today that Puppet Joe is coming after OUR guns. AGAIN! That must mean enough of the local police forces have been transformed into a Gestapo to enforce his next “Executive Order”. This one just might be a little more difficult to accomplish than raising the price of gasoline. However, since the “Sheep Population” continues to multiply, one never knows.
Thomas, you are correct, satan is on the move against We the People, the "bitter clingers" fuhrer obama sneered at so much!!!!!!!!!!
