Shock poll reveals who Americans trust more to handle the economy

VP Harris has improved voters’ trust for Democratic handling of the economy
Americans trust Kamala Harris much more than Joe Biden to handle the No. 1 issue in the 2024 election, a new poll reveals.
Democrats are seeing a major boost in who registered voters want in charge of the economy after Harris took over the president’s 2024 campaign.
And now, the vice president has even pulled ahead of former President Donald Trump in this metric, according to a Financial Times/University of Michigan Ross School of Business poll released on Sunday.
Trump’s standing on economic issues remained unchanged from July to August, with 41 percent approving of his handling.
Meanwhile, Harris has a 1-point advantage, which is well within the August 1-5 survey’s 3.1 percent margin of error.
California Governor Gavin Newsom called ‘[expletive].’ after former President Donald Trump claimed he was in a helicopter with former San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown that nearly crashed. Brown also said that never happened. Trump told the dubious story in response to a question during his press conference at his Mar-a-Lago home in Florida on Thursday.
From February onward, Biden has remained between 31 percent and 37 percent on those who trust him to handle the U.S. economy amid soaring inflation and near recession-level conditions.
Meanwhile, Trump has stayed above 40 percent within the same time period.
Half of respondents said that the economy has gotten worse since Biden became president in 2021 and a whopping 73 percent of voters say that they view the U.S. economic conditions negatively.
But Biden exiting and Harris entering the race has shaken up Americans’ thoughts on who is better suited to handle economic issues.
Americans constantly rank the economy as the biggest factor affecting their vote in November.
Harris was able to recover 7 percentage points from registered voters who trust the Democratic candidate to handle the U.S. economy
University of Michigan professor Erik Gordon said of the results: ‘The fact that voters were more positive on Harris than on Biden . . . says as much about how badly Biden was doing as it does about how well Harris is doing.’
Trump and his surrogates claim Harris is seeing a ‘honeymoon phase’ after entering the race last month that they think will soon wear off.
Democratic enthusiasm skyrocketed after Harris took over her 81-year-old boss’ campaign.
But Republicans say it still isn’t enough to defeat Trump in November.
