Republicans Sour On the Economy

“Republicans’ confidence in the economy has plummeted over the last six months at a pace unseen since Covid — reminiscent of the declines during the global financial crisis nearly two decades ago,” Axios reports.

“Usually, the president’s party is upbeat about the economy, while the party out of power is far more downcast. What’s striking now is that Republicans have grown increasingly sour this year, even with a Republican president in office.”

Nearly every indicator suggests the midterm election environment is getting worse for Republicans.
