ARE YOU BETTER OFF UNDER JOE? Issues & Insights surveys Joe Biden’s year in the Oval Office and then asks the famous Reagan question during his debate with President Jimmy Carter. The answer can’t be comforting to Democrats hoping to somehow keep control of Congress:

“The economy is growing more slowly than expected. Incomes are being eaten up by rising inflation. Optimism is below where it was during the height of the pandemic in 2020. The nation’s finances are in far worse shape, with the national debt up $1.8 trillion since Biden took office. We’re still nearly 3 million jobs shy of the previous peak. Oh, and COVID deaths under Biden now top 430,000 – more deaths than happened while Donald Trump was president.”
