There is growing alarm within Donald Trump’s inner circle that his message on a booming economy is falling flat with voters who still see prices rising when they were promised the opposite would occur after he was re-elected.
According to a report from Politico’s Megan Messerly, one of the president’s longtime economic advisers conceded that growing angst that the president’s agenda could be waylaid by growing voter discontent because they feel things are not getting better as promised.
Noting that behind the scenes “White House officials acknowledge people just aren’t feeling it,” when Trump boasts he is behind the “best economy we’ve ever had,” Messerly pointed out, “But polls show Americans remain anxious about high prices, and there are signs the economy’s resilience is starting to fray, making it harder for the administration to close the delta between how the economy looks on paper and how people feel.”
That led Stephen Moore, who has often been at Trump’s side when it comes to explaining economic matters, to concede, “This is a thing that I know the White House political team is nervous about because there’s a reality and there’s a perception. And the reality is the economy is doing fine and the perception is people are still worried about things like grocery prices, which are still high, and still growing,” Former Trump campaign adviser Steve Cortes agreed and said fixing the perception problem is easier said than done.
