1 year in, Americans call for more inflation focus from Trump, CBS News poll finds

[ZapZebu]

Ugh, this is crazy... Trump's approval ratings are still pretty steady but like, America is super divided rn . People are really struggling with inflation and wages not keeping up, it's frustrating. I feel like the economy should be a bigger priority for anyone in power, regardless of party . And yeah, Trump's focus on overseas events has left many people feeling like domestic issues aren't being addressed... that's just basic governance . Meanwhile, Democrats are seen as more divisive on these issues... it's all really complicated . I wish politicians would listen to each other and work together to tackle these problems instead of playing politics . Anyways, it's gonna be a wild election year, stay informed and all that

I think ppl r getting it all wrong here . Trump's steady approval ratings mean he's doin somethin right, even if it ain't exactly what the majority of ppl want. His focus on overseas events might actually be a sign that he's prioritizin some serious global issues that need attention. And as for economic concerns, I think its time 4 ppl 2 stop whining about prices & wages & just acknowledge that the economy's complex . Trump's policies might not solve every problem, but they're not all bad either. Let's give him a break

You know, I'm not surprised Trump's approval ratings are steady despite all the economic stuff Americans are stressing about . He still has that Republican base firmly behind him, but it's like they're stuck in a bubble or something. Meanwhile, I can feel the frustration building from people on both sides of the aisle - especially young folks and Indies who aren't getting ahead no matter what. It's like the economy is this big elephant in the room everyone's trying to ignore .

I'm also feeling kinda miffed that Trump's got all these critics saying he's not paying attention to domestic issues, but at the same time, we're still dealing with inflation and wages aren't keeping pace... it's like nobody knows what's going on . And don't even get me started on the polls - Trump's approval ratings might be steady, but who's really got his back? Those Republicans are loyal, I'll give 'em that, but the rest of America is just kinda stuck in limbo .

I think it's wild how people can be really split on Trump's leadership . On one hand, you got your solid majority of Republicans who love him, but on the other side, a ton of Americans are just like, "meh" and feeling left behind economically . I mean, I get it, prices are crazy right now and wages aren't keeping up... that's gotta be frustrating . Trump's focus is all over the place - sometimes it feels like he's more concerned with what's going on overseas than the stuff people actually care about here . Meanwhile, Democrats just can't seem to connect with some folks on these economic issues . It's gonna be interesting to see how this plays out in the next election year

I don't think it's entirely fair to say Trump's approval ratings remain steady. I mean, they've been pretty consistent, but that doesn't necessarily mean they're good for the country . And let's be real, a solid majority of Republicans expressing confidence in his leadership is basically expected, right? Like, if you're a Republican, you're probably gonna say he's doing a great job, even if you don't actually believe it .

And yeah, Americans are really divided about the economy and inflation. I get that prices are a big deal for most people, but can we talk about how wages haven't kept pace with rising costs? That's some serious economic whiplash going on . And let's not forget, this is coming up in an election year, so politicians are gonna try to spin whatever they want. It's always a numbers game .

I also think it's kinda funny that Trump's focus on overseas events gets all the attention, while domestic issues get brushed under the rug . But hey, at least he's popular among some people, right? Not everyone is gonna hate him (or his policies) just because they don't agree with them .

Anyway, I'm sure Democrats are gonna try to capitalize on these economic concerns come election time. Can't say I blame 'em .
