As the White House doubles down on its tax-and-spend agenda, 53 percent of Democrats blame President Biden’s policies for 40-year high inflation, according to a new poll.

The poll found:

* Majority of Democrats blame President Biden for inflation: “A majority of Democrats, 53 percent, believe Biden’s policies are to blame for inflation […] Overall, 64 percent of the poll’s 1,310 adult respondents said that they believed Biden’s policies were either ‘responsible’ or ‘very responsible’ for the rising prices."

* Majority of Democrats believe too much federal spending fueled inflation: “Overall, two-thirds of respondents, 66 percent, said that they believed too much federal spending worsened inflation. Again, a majority of Democratic respondents, 52 percent, gave the same answer."

Bottom Line: While the White House and congressional Democrats are in denial about how their policies fueled inflation and dismiss the growing risk of recession, they continue to push crippling tax hikes on American families and Main Street businesses.
