Americans Question Biden's Economic Leadership
- Voters question Biden's handling of the economy, citing high grocery prices and mortgage rates that make it difficult to afford basic necessities and purchase homes
- A Las Vegas resident said he had to put plans to buy a house on hold due to rising costs, despite working full time "We still can’t afford things."
- A Milwaukee barber said his shop used to be full on Thursdays before the pandemic; now, fewer customers are coming in, possibly due to higher prices
- Some voters said they would consider voting for Trump in 2024 over economic concerns, like a Milwaukee resident who took issue with U.S. aid sent overseas
- Other voters said they would still vote Biden over Trump, like an Arizona woman struggling with grocery costs, though she feels taunted by coworkers over pushing Biden in 2020
