Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, D-Fla., told CNN on Saturday that President Biden’s negative economic polling was due to a “hangover” from the COVID-19 pandemic.
CNN host Fredricka Whitfield asked Schultz about a CNN poll showing that 51% of Americans believe the economy is getting worse.
“I mean President Biden, like President Obama before him, inherited an absolute mess, coming out of the pandemic, from clearly the disastrous way that former President Trump handled the pandemic, and he was able to not only make sure that millions of jobs were saved, and small businesses were prevented from going under, but now, he’s begun to really get our economy turned around,” Schultz said.
She blamed the polling on a “hangover from the pandemic” and argued the administration is making “a lot of progress.”
“It is pretty clear that although we’re making a lot of progress, the sort of hangover from the pandemic, which was obviously a century, unprecedented situation, that it is still causing melancholy, and also, the impact of those investments is going to take some time to bake in. But that’s our job, to make sure that we communicate,” she continued.
