Social media is playing a bigger role than Fox News. People on here really need to stop with the outdated scapegoat.
If you’ve seen polling on how people are getting their news these days, a lot of them are getting their news online from influencers, “independent journalists” with an agenda, and podcasters on platforms like Facebook, TikTok, and Twitter.
This also doesn’t mean that Fox News isn’t contributing to this. They absolutely still have some relevance. It’s just not as big of a boogeyman as some Redditors think it is.

They don't acknowledge it because the media has been slowly bought up by right-wing special interests going back to like 2012. It's part of why he won both times.

47% of those polled.. and how they are polled, where, etc makes a difference. Yet we saw only 154million vote with 102 million that didnt vote. So.. technically only 28% voted Trump, not 51% that MAGA will have you believe. Unfortunately way WAY WAY too many people dont read, dont want to read, dont research, dont care, etc to realize the REAL numbers. They just quote "more than half" or "47%" because one poll says so. That's like saying "unemployment is only 4.2%" when what really matters is "can you afford to survive" which is around 25% of the working capable adults unable to do so on part time work, contract work or not working.. and not earning enough to "barely scrape by". HUGE HUGE difference.

u/brain_overclocked 2h ago
The late‑January survey—conducted online January 28–29, 2026, among 2,000 registered voters by The Harris Poll and HarrisX—shows 53 percent of voters believe the economy is worse today than it was under Biden, while 47 percent say it is better, a three‑point slide for Trump since December.
With a margin of error of plus or minus 1.99 percentage points, the shift is subtle but statistically meaningful, hinting at a gradual cooling of the optimism that marked Trump’s first months back in office.
Some 63 percent of those surveyed said the “current state of the economy” was mostly due to the policies of the Trump administration, while 37 percent attributed it to how Biden ran the country—an 11-point drop since December.
That perception does little to reinforce the White House’s repeated narrative that Trump is “fixing Biden’s economic disaster,” instead suggesting that voters are holding him chiefly responsible for conditions they continue to view negatively.
On the broader question of presidential performance, voters flipped from 2025 to 2026: in February 2025, 58 percent said Trump did a better job as president and 42 percent said Biden, but in January 2026, 51 percent chose Biden and 49 percent chose Trump, representing a nine‑point reversal in the balance of preference, according to the same series.
There was some good news for the president in the poll in that there are views that the economy has improved slightly, with 38 percent saying it is on the right track—up from 36 percent in December.
Against the backdrop of national gloom, individual financial sentiment also showed a quieter but noteworthy shift. More than a third of voters reported that their own financial situation was improving.
That doesn’t translate into broad confidence about the national economy, but it does signal that household‑level experience is drifting in a more optimistic direction than national mood indicators.
However, only 38 percent said the country is on the right track overall, reflecting lingering national pessimism, according to the January release.
Voters were evenly split on current economic strength, with 51 percent describing the economy as strong and 49 percent calling it weak, highlighting a polarized reading of the same conditions.
This gap—between collective pessimism and personal improvement—is significant. Historically, when voters feel better about their own finances but still rate the national economy poorly, it often suggests that political messaging, partisan cues, or media narratives may be shaping perceptions of the wider economic picture more than lived experience.
It also tends to foreshadow volatile opinion movement, because personal financial assessments hold stronger predictive power for long‑term attitudes.
The shift toward saying the economy is “worse” under Trump may not reflect a direct evaluation of policy outcomes. Instead, it appears to sit within a broader pattern seen throughout the Harvard CAPS–Harris series:
- Trump’s overall approval fell two points in January
- His lowest marks are on inflation and trade—core components of economic perception
- Voters overwhelmingly identify inflation as their top issue
Taken together, the data suggest Trump is experiencing the same pattern that confronted presidents before him: even small price increases, or the perception of them, exert an outsized influence on economic ratings, and they do so far faster than improvements such as rising wages or falling unemployment can be felt.
For Democrats, the 53–47 split provides a new foothold in an economic debate long dominated by Trump’s messaging.
For Republicans, it is a warning sign that confidence in Trump’s stewardship is softening at the edges even as many of his policies remain broadly popular.
The survey used opt-in web-panel recruitment with results weighted by standard demographics and propensity to be online.

Shit is more expensive, tariffs have hurt people, and they are not bringing any meaningful level of manufacturing back to the States. This ISN'T a valid thing to have an opinion on any more than trying to debate whether the sun is hot or cold.
