Behind the Poll
There is no question that the inflation crisis gripping the country is largely due to the mismanagement of the economy by the Biden administration. However, some believe that Biden is deliberately trying to deflect blame for his own incompetence onto Russia.
On one hand, it is true that Russia has been engaged in some shady activities lately, including meddling in the US elections and allegedly paying the Taliban to kill American soldiers. However, it is also true that the US economy was in a much better state before Biden took office. Inflation was low, unemployment was down, and wages were rising.
So, while Russia may be partially to blame for the current inflation crisis, it is clear that Biden bears the majority of the responsibility. His policies have failed to stem the tide of inflation, and instead have made things worse. For this reason, many believe that he is simply trying to shift the blame onto Russia in order to cover up his own incompetence.
