CNN: Biden’s Economic Approval is a ‘Head-Scratcher’ – Inflation is ‘Still Way Up’ From Two Years Ago
by Ian Hanchett Breitbart.com
On Thursday’s broadcast of “CNN News Central,” co-host Kate Bolduan and CNN Senior Data Reporter Harry Enten said that it’s puzzling that President Joe Biden’s economic approval numbers are terrible, but Enten noted that inflation is “still way up” and at 12% over the past two years and people are “taking the longer-range view” on the economy.
Enten said, “The only one who was noticeably worse was Jimmy Carter. We always said Donald Trump had such a low approval rating, right? But if you look, what you see is that Donald Trump’s approval rating was actually slightly larger than Joe Biden’s was at this point. … So, he’s doing worse than Trump, who he was always saying was doing so poorly. And I’ll note the reason why his approval rating is so low at this point is because it comes down to the economy. If you look at Joe Biden’s approval on the economy right now, it stinks. … And that’s the top issue in our poll.”
