White House Report Card: Zogby says ‘Week belonged to GOP’
This week’s White House Report Card finds President Joe Biden planning to wander around key battleground states to boost key Democratic Senate candidates. But he will be dogged by a troubled economy, the Fed’s plan to continue raising rates at a radical rate, and troubling crime and immigration reports.
I recall at this point in 2012, Mitt Romney was neck-and-neck with former President Barack Obama, and in 2016, Hillary Clinton was holding strong leads in many of those battleground states. Things can and have happened in the closing week of an election. But despite a good numbers week for Biden, the GOP owned it. But it would be totally irresponsible for me to make any calls yet.
Crime rates have skyrocketed in most major cities and nationwide. Inflation is steady at about 8%, mortgage interest rates are at 7% , and as I wrote last week, a lot of people are skimping on Thanksgiving dinner because it’s too expensive. We reportedly only have about 25 days of diesel fuel left in the country due mostly to refinery incapacity. If and when shortages occur, the U.S. economy will slow down dramatically. If the supply runs out, the economy will come to a crashing halt.
