Voters Predict the Economy Will Get Worse if Democrats Win
PJ Media ^ | 10.24.2022 | Matt Margolis

It’s the economy, stupid! Right? We’ve been hearing that for decades. Well, with that in mind, Democrats have yet another reason to be terrified that they are about to get shellacked in the midterm elections. According to a new poll, most voters believe that if Democrats win the elections, it will hurt the already struggling economy.

The poll from Trafalgar Group, done in collaboration with Convention of States Action, found that 58.9 percent of voters say they believe the economy would suffer if Democrats were to retain control of Congress following the 2022 midterm elections, while 41.1 percent of voters believe it would get better.

“The data is clear–the American people are keenly aware that progressive policies spell disaster for the economy,” said Mark Meckler, president of the Convention of States. “The voters are seeing the consequences in real time, with reckless White House spending bills such as the poorly named ‘Inflation Reduction Act’ as well as the Biden administration’s hostile policies against American energy rearing their ugly heads. If this continues, how much worse could it get?”

There is no reason in the world the rats shouldn’t suffer an epic ass kicking this November. The stars are all in alignment.

If they do not we’ll all know why.

I predict the economy to get worse either way, except with a republican win, the demonrats will conveniently have a scapegoat and will screech it to the heavens non stop at volume 11

If that stat is accurate, that’s the nail in the coffin for dems unless they actively vote against their best economic interests.

I have no faith in the American electorate.

I predict it will get worse even if they lose. Much damage on the way due to the lame duck session.

I know, it’s looking like there is no way for this to go against Republicans, but there are always “October surprises” up the Dems’ sleeves. And then there’s the inevitable election fraud.

You are absolutely correct, without a VETO PROOF bill to reopen our energy resources NOTHING will change!! Biden is hell bent on destroying this nation and without VETO PROOF legislation there is not a damn thing that can be done!! Congress can close the purse strings HOWEVER the damage has been done already AND I might add our side of the senate joined Biden in his destruction of this nation!!

Andrew Willow has been saying it for over a year, things aren’t going to start to get better until Jan 2025 at the earliest IF we’re lucky.

If they don’t it will highlight how feckless the R PArty has become. But fear not the Crimson Tide is coming.

Plus Bai Dung has done most of the damage with his EOs. Nothing stopping him from using it exclusively during his second term. At least not with the congressional leadership we have now.

“Some” Democrats think it will get worse. If you are a melanin-enriched person in any of the top 20 cities or a blue-haired tranny...you think Democrats can fix anything. I postulate MOST Democrats are self-hating ghouls. The rest of the Reagan Republicans left when Trump got elected. It’s all a mishmash of Blacks, NE Hispanics, Blue haired lesbian freaks, Sexual degenerates, inner suburb Yoga Moms, and stoner simpy college men.

“Much damage on the way due to the lame duck session.”

How many R’s in the Senate will help them mete out damage?

We’ve got to throw the far-left inflation deniers out on their asses as well as the pimps and morons who are saying Bidet has nothing to do with the current out of control inflation. I knew this was going to happen once the politicians got everyone hooked on “recreational” drugs.

it’s hard to believe that 41 percent think the dems would make it better. Just goes to show just how powerful the so-called “mainstream” media still is, despite the fact that the majority of people say they don’t trust them.

IMO and based on past history, that's *exactly* what's going to happen.
