A new poll found more Americans are unhappy with Donald Trump's stances on the economy and cost of living, with almost twice as many saying the president has helped raise prices rather than lowering them.

In a Yahoo/YouGov poll conducted Nov. 21-24, 49% of respondents said Trump's actions since taking office for his second term in January have raised prices instead of cutting them. That's a nearly two-to-one ratio to the 24% who said he's done more to lower costs.

The survey also found more Americans (38%) blame Trump for inflation than his predecessor, former President Joe Biden (31%), despite the now-president campaigning on the economy during his successful 2024 presidential bid.

24% of the country being so stupid they believed the party's command to ignore the evidence of their lying eyes is, unfortunately, progress

I think of it more as a third given just under 50% seem to respond sensibly. That is assuming some just did not want to respond or something.
