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.”

they deserve every punishment america can put on them.
If and when the main street media start broadcasting the truth and really cover all the news, including the Biden Family, the democrats will have a worst day than Gen. Custer @the Little Big Horn. After Nov., the Republicans might want to consider changing their mascot to a brave Lakota Indian. We need to gear up and take no prisoners. In Jan., the Republican need to push their slaughter by starting with all the corrupt bureaucrats. This country would be 100% better without the corrupt democrat party. Maybe the Independent voters could start their own party.
There is a Libertarian Party, a Green Party, an others that only manage to help us lose the election, they never get anywhere close to winning one. We need a strong constitutional Republican Party and we will be fine, but first we have to clean our house and not continue to elect people who don't represent our constitutional republic. We need to focus on the health and strength of the republic, we manage that and all else will fall into place.
iI'm sure hopeful we are awake, that enough of us are awake!
What I've been thinking all along and what has been done to prevent a repeat besides being awake? Hello???
💯
Wonder who the 30% are who thinks things are great. It is going to be up to all of us to make sure these scum are thrown out of office. We really need to research each candidate running to make sure no more Rhinos and get rid of the Rhinos already there. I know we trust Trump but his picks should also be researched.
I would they are the ones with the out stretched hand that want $15 p/hr to flip burgers
There should be a mass political lynching of the Communist Party U.S.A -AKA the Democrats
