MOSCOW (Sputnik) – A half of Americans say their financial situation has worsened under US President Joe Biden, a poll conducted by the Financial Times and University of Michigan’s Ross School of Business showed on Sunday.
The online survey, conducted from August 1-5 among 1,001 registered voters, found that only 19% of respondents were better off financially since Biden became president in 2021.
More than 7 in 10 respondents said they held a negative view of economic conditions in the United States, versus 25% who viewed them positively.
When asked who of the two presidential candidates would leave them better off financially, 42% said they trusted ex-President Donald Trump to improve their financial well-being, versus 33% who banked on Vice President Kamala Harris.
