The CBS/YouGov investigation, conducted May 18-20, indicates that people had bad vibes that should affect President Joe Biden’s administration.
The sample showed that more than 60 percent of respondents agree the state of the nation is uncomfortable, worrying and frustrating.
With that in mind, inflation hit its highest level in 40 years in March and remains close to that level. Meanwhile, gasoline prices are rising across the country.
The Biden government has been criticized for economic woes, which are likely to be a big issue in November’s election, according to The Hill newspaper.
Republicans are using inflation as a talking point for their campaigns, which they hope will benefit on Election Day, the digital newspaper said.
Democrats promise they remain the best party to set rising prices while mobilizing voters on other issues like abortion rights and fighting the rise of white supremacy after a mass shooting in the city of Buffalo that left ten people dead died, most of them black, he said.
The Hill notes that in the new poll, a narrow majority, 51 percent, support calling the Democratic Party “weak” while 49 percent support calling the Democrats “extreme.”
More than 30 percent of Americans said Democrats are in touch and effective.
About 54 percent, meanwhile, found Republicans extreme, the poll found, while half of all Americans said the red awning was hateful.
He added that Republicans, however, do better when they are “strong,” something 46 percent of the population agrees with.
