THE US economy is doing well, yet voters aren’t impressed by President Joe Biden. Some 58 per cent of Americans disapproved of the president as at Feb 28, according to a polling tracker by Reuters and Ipsos.
This negativity towards Biden may boil down to inflation, which will be a key issue to watch in the US election this year.
Americans have plenty to cheer about. The US economy grew 2.5 per cent last year, accelerating from a 1.9-per-cent expansion the year before.
