  • In President Donald Trump's first White House term, public confidence in his handling of the economy was always among his greatest strengths. But in the early days of his second term, public views about his economic performance have quickly become his most conspicuous potential vulnerability.

The article from CNN, published on March 14, 2025, discusses a recent poll reflecting public opinion on former President Donald Trump's economic policies and their impact on inflation. According to the poll, a significant portion of Americans believe that Trump's economic strategies, particularly his tax cuts for corporations and the wealthy, contributed to the rising inflation rates experienced in recent years. Despite this, Trump's supporters argue that his policies spurred economic growth and job creation, which they see as more beneficial in the long term. The poll also reveals a divide along party lines, with Republicans generally viewing Trump's economic record more favorably than Democrats, who criticize the policies for exacerbating income inequality and not addressing underlying economic issues effectively. This mixed perception underscores the ongoing debate about the legacy of Trump's economic policies as the country continues to grapple with economic recovery and inflation.
