Democrats are eager to hammer Trump on the economy, where his polling is at its lowest point. But Republicans are confident economic sentiment is about to turn in their favor.
Democrats were swept out of power last year as they suffered political pain from rising costs. Now, President Donald Trump is overseeing stubborn inflation, a slowing job market and anxiety over his tariffs, and Democrats are determined to make his party pay the price.
With the 2026 midterm cycle on the horizon, the economy is shaping up to once again play a dominant role. Democrats are keenly aware that what sunk them last time could be their ticket back to power.
Trump’s own daring promise is complicating the situation for his party after he told voters in 2024, “When I win, I will immediately bring prices down, starting on Day 1.”
That’s a message Democrats will be emphasizing.

There’s a lot of “rich” people who are about to discover that they’re not in the 0.01% and it’s gonna bite them hard. I’m not talking about the people with 6 digit incomes, I’m talking the small business owners in the $1-$20M range who thought that they were going to be part of Trumps in club who are about to lose things because of Trumps policies. It’s gonna be a hell of a wake up call for them.
Yeah, but apparently he was pro-genocide according to sources. And Donny isn’t, according to himself. Well that worked swimmingly well, it seems.
The GOP is quietly working on making sure they remain in power forever. They’re not worried about economic anxiety or public opinion.
They’re not even working on it very quietly.
political liability
The building is on fire and these guys are like “I think it might be getting hot in here”
They will always find a way to shift blame, and masses of idiots will be happy to except it as fact even when it makes no sense. No need to adjust world view and MAGA can sleep easy knowing they can keep hating the right people.
Somehow, this must be Obama’s fault 🤔
“Economic anxiety grows under Trump, creating a new political liability for the GOP.”
FOX News machine go brrrrrr
“Economic … grows under Trump, creating a new political …ability for the GOP.”
