Over the weekend, Governor Chris Sununu of New Hampshire stated that the “Bidenomics” of the Biden-Harris administration were resonating with Vice President Kamala Harris during her campaign.
Sununu made the comments on ABC News’ “This Week” on Sunday, following Martha Raddatz’s observation that voters have a significantly higher level of confidence in former President Donald Trump than in Harris when it comes to the economy.
Raddatz subsequently attempted to incite dread regarding Trump’s proposal to impose tariffs on products from China for national security purposes.
“When it comes to the voter, where this election is going, no voter is voting on tariffs. It’s a very complex thing. When it comes to the economy, what that really means is, can I afford to bring my kids to McDonald’s? Can I afford to pay the rent?” Sununu said.
“The economy really translates to a cost of living issue when it comes to people at the ballot box. Now, if and when he becomes president, they’ll have to sort out the tariff issue. Is he using it for leverage against China, to ratchet things down, to force better negotiations? That will all play itself out, but the average voter doesn’t look at that stuff right now.” he continued.
He stated that the ultimate question is whether individuals are capable of purchasing the same quantity of products as they were four years ago.
“And the ‘Bidenomics’ thing, I think, is really coming back to haunt Biden and Kamala Harris, especially. When you’re told by the government, ‘You’re fine. Bidenomics is working for you’, it’s the worst form of gaslighting.” he concluded.
