WASHINGTON, Feb 27 (Reuters) - President Donald ⁠Trump says the U.S. economy is booming and that he has fixed inflation. But most Americans, including many in his Republican Party, do not ⁠see things that way, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll.

"This is the golden age of America," Trump said in his State of the ‌Union address on Tuesday. "The roaring economy is roaring like never before."
