"Donald Trump boasted a strong advantage over his Democratic opponents former President Joe Biden, and then his vice president, Kamala Harris on the economy during last year's race for the White House. But a new poll from Pew Research found that while voters enjoyed the idea of a Trump at the helm, a majority believe that the effect of his policies on the economy has been to make it worse."
"According to the survey of 3,445 American adults conducted between September 22 and 28, 53% of the country believes that Trump has made economic conditions worse. Just 24%, meanwhile, say that he's improved them. The same poll also found that just 26% of respondents would evaluate the economy as being excellent or good, including only 44% of those who identify as Republicans or who lean Republican. Seventy-four percent, meanwhile, say the economy is either fair or poor."
A Pew Research survey of 3,445 U.S. adults conducted Sept. 22–28 found 53% believe Trump has made economic conditions worse, while 24% say he improved them. Only 26% of respondents rate the economy as excellent or good, including 44% of Republicans and Republican-leaning respondents; 74% rate it fair or poor. Top reasons cited for fair/poor ratings include high inflation (17%), tariffs (12%), and high cost of living (9%), with 16% citing negative mentions of Trump or the GOP. By comparison, November 2018 saw 59% rate the economy excellent or good. Polls still show Republican leads on economy, immigration, and crime.
