WASHINGTON: A recent poll reveals that many Americans remain apprehensive about President Joe Biden’s management of the economy, despite the administration’s emphasis on positive economic indicators. In January, Biden’s approval rating stood at 38 percent, setting the stage for a closely contested race against challenger Donald Trump. Vice President Kamala Harris defended the administration’s economic record, highlighting job creation, wage increases, and a surge in consumer confidence and spending.
However, concerns persist among citizens, reflecting ongoing economic challenges. The sentiment contrasts with statements from the head of the U.S. central bank, which underscores the nation’s robust economic position, emphasizing its resilience amid global uncertainties. As the debate continues, the focus remains on addressing lingering economic anxieties and advancing policies to bolster recovery and stability.
