From Breitbart: Americans are far happier with the economic leadership of President Trump than they were under Joe Biden just a few months ago, according to a CNN poll released Wednesday.
While American households are still laboring under the weight Biden-era inflation, the worst in forty years, their opinion of the president’s handling of the economy has surged higher with the changing of the guard at the White House.
Biden left office in January with just 33 percent of Americans saying they approved of his handling of the economy, according to a CNN poll conducted by SSRS in January. A super-majority of 67 percent said they disapproved of Biden’s economic leadership.
President Trump now scores a 44 percent approval rating. That is higher than Biden scored in any of the CNN polls since December 2021. At this point in his presidency, Biden had a 49 percent approval rating on the economy.
The CNN poll was conducted by SSRS from March 6-9 among a random national sample of 1,206 US adults. Surveys were either conducted online or by telephone with a live interviewer.
CNN pitched the new poll as a negative, titling their report, “Americans are negative on Trump’s handling of economy.”
Missing from the CNN report was the fact that Trump’s 44 percent approval rating on the economy is 11 points higher than Joe Biden’s 33 percent approval rating when he left office.
CNN does note that the 51% who now say they approve of President Trump’s work on immigration is 7 points higher than at any point during his first term.
