Fifty-six percent of general election voters do not think that President Joe Biden is worried about inflation, a Sunday Trafalgar survey revealed.

While the Labor Department announced Friday that inflation has topped a 40-year high in November, beating the coronavirus, crime, and immigration as national top concerns, a majority of voters say Biden is not concerned about the "impact that rising costs and inflation is having on Americans."

Among Democrats alone, just 48 percent believe Biden is very concerned about inflation. Twenty-seven percent of Democrats say Biden is not concerned at all about inflation.
