On inflation, again, fairly even split, 33% Democrats, 28% Republicans, 39% neither.
On taxes, Republicans out to Democrats, 35, 20, 32.
And on the stock market, Republicans crushed the Democrats, 38 to 21%.
Okay, so again, the stats there tend to favor the Democrats overall.
On healthcare helping middle class, inflation, Democrats are favored.
On taxes in the stock market, Republicans are favored.
Okay, then the poll asked, generally speaking, do you believe that the following issues either have a positive impact, a negative impact, or no impact on your financial situation?
On the war in Iran, 75% of Americans say there's been a negative impact on their financial situation compared to 8% who say a positive effect, which, again, understandable.
The gas prices are up.
The implementation of higher tariffs on foreign goods, 65% to thirds of Americans say negative impact on their personal economic situation.
46% of Americans say the increasing use of AI has a negative effect on their financial situation, which is kind of an astonishing statement considering that it is only AI growth that is holding up job creation, productivity increases, and stock market increases.
But there's been a lot of propaganda against AI these days and a lot of uncertainty about what AI is going to do.
41% of Americans that say that the set of recent changes to tax law have had a negative impact on their financial situation compared to 25% who say that they think it's been good for them, the tax changes.
And 35% say there's been a negative impact on their financial situation compared to 25% who say positive.
So bottom line is people are in a very bad mood about the economy, generally speaking.
And Democrats, of course, are trying to take advantage of this.
Zoran Mamdani.
Our Islamist and socialist mayor of New York, he put out a tweet saying inflation is at a three year high.
Everything costs more groceries, gas, health care, a plane ticket.
The math is simple.
