The Biden economy will crush Democrats in 2022
By Ted Harvey
While ancillary issues like cancel culture and critical race theory further the divide between Democratic elites and American voters—and, indeed, electability—the top issue in 2022 has always been and will continue to be the economy. Pocketbook issues always matter most, especially now and regardless of the daily social media cycle.
On that score, President Biden has every reason to be concerned. Even Democrats can’t paint a rosy picture for 2022, hence the likes of NPR predicting a “red wave.”
You don’t have to be a Republican to see it. Just crunch the numbers: U.S. inflation recently surged to a nearly 40-year high, rising 6.8 percent from a year ago—the fastest increase since 1982. Used car and truck prices are up 31 percent since last year. Energy costs are up 33.3 percent year-over-year. The cost of gasoline is up even more (58.1 percent) in a span of 12 months.
Throw in a 6.1 percent food price increase, and you have the lowest level of American purchasing power in a generation.
