Trump’s positive overall numbers came even as he scored less-than-stellar marks on issues that were key to his victory in the presidential race, such as trade and inflation.
For instance, 51% of respondents told CBS that they think Trump’s policies will make food and grocery prices go up, versus 28% who believe his policies will lower prices, and another 20% who said they won’t change anything.
Two-thirds of respondents said the Trump administration is not focusing enough on lowering the prices of goods and services.
Also, 73% said they think new U.S. tariffs on imported goods will generally make things more expensive for them, while just 8% believe tariffs would lower prices.
If this is true then we have exactly the government we deserve. And I mean that in the worst possible way.
