The framing of this is misleading and sloppy, per usual. This is why tendentious tweets like this are silly. By the very same polling, you could report that "By a whopping 29-point margin, a majority of Americans say that inflation is caused by the Biden Administration's policies. Americans are catching on to this incompetent Administration!" |

The GDP report from the BEA is out.
U.S. economy grew 5.7 percent in 2021, fastest full-year clip since 1984, despite ongoing pandemic https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2022/01/27/gdp-2021-q4-economy/ |

That's an amazing number. |
Absolutely. 2021 was the strongest calendar year growth in GDP, the benchmark for measuring the economy, since 1984, when Ronald Reagan was in office. That was before the baby Trumpers like Lauren Boebert and Madison Cawthorn were born. https://wtop.com/national/2022/01/us-economy-grew-5-7-in-2021-in-rebound-from-2020-recession/ |
| Interest rates have been pegged at near 0 for 12 years. That's also driving inflation. That's likely to end soon. Let's just hope the Fed doesn't overdo it and push us into a recession. |
