Case in point: Ina new CBS News/YouGov poll, 61% of U.S. adultssay President Trump makes prices and inflation sound better than they really are. Trump's approval rating on the economy sat at 37%, just one point higher than a month earlier,in the poll of 2,300 adults. Respondents were more than twice as likely to say Trump's policies, notformer President Biden's, are responsible for the economy.
Trump has been dismissing negative polls about the economy as fake, including in Truth Social posts this week where he complained he's not getting enough credit for fixing the mess left by former President Joe Biden. When will I get credit for having created, with No Inflation, perhaps the Greatest Economy in the History of our Country? When will people understand what is happening? When will Polls reflect the Greatness of America at this point in time, and how bad it was just one year ago? he wrote on Truth Social this week. Probably when the economy's better. Maybe that's when it's going to happen. Come on now, Daniels said in response to Trump's question about getting credit.
