Sorry, Trump, the economy is yours.
Whose economy is it anyway?
With President Donald Trumps second term past the 100-day mark, hes scrambling to dodge blame for a stock market thats
fallen since he took office. On April 30,
he declared in a social media post, This is Bidens Stock Market, not Trumps.
He appears to be one of the few who believes that.
More Americans blame Trump (46%) than former President Biden (27%) for the current state of the economy, according to
Gallup. Another 21% say responsibility is shared. That might be flattering for Trump if people liked where things standbut they dont.
A
CBS News/YouGov poll, which was conducted shortly before Trumps
Liberation Day tariffs took effect, found that 64% of Americans think hes not doing enough to lower prices. And the share who believe his policies will make them worse off financially jumped from 28% in January to 42% by late March. Its safe to assume sentiment has only worsened since.
