Breitbart published today a new poll that shows that voters trust Republicans over Democrats by 17 percentage points to tame President Joe Biden’s inflation, a Wall Street Journal poll revealed Monday.

With the midterms just months away in November, 47 percent of voters trust Republicans to manage Biden’s inflation, while only 30 percent stated Democrats.

The electorate’s lack of trust in Democrats to fix inflation is devastating because it is the issue of the greatest worry for voters. Fifty-two percent of voters believe the economy is the greatest issue facing the nation, according to Thursday’s Navigator Survey. 

Yet only 30 percent said they think Biden is focusing on those issues.

This month, inflation has been exacerbated by gas price hikes. Already spiking about a dollar throughout Biden’s first year as president, gas prices have continued to rise throughout March, breaking records posted in 2008. Last week, the national average price of gas topped five consecutive record highs. Gas prices have increased by 83 cents in just one month.

Biden’s polling on the cost of gas is also terrible. Seventy percent of Americans disapprove of his handling of gas prices, a Sunday ABC News/Ipsos poll revealed.

The poor economic marks for Biden and the Democrats heading into the midterms suggest Republicans will have a favorable election. The New York Times acknowledged as much Friday in a story titled “Bracing for Losses, Democrats Look to Biden for a Reset.”

The story noted that Democrats are “bracing for big losses” due to being “buffeted by rising gas prices, soaring inflation and sagging approval ratings.”
