"We have got high gas prices, we do have inflation," Grisham said, adding that farmers can't afford fertilizer or fuel in the Midwest. 

"People really are suffering at the grocery store. There are a lot of things going on and I think that could affect the polls, I do," Grisham said. 

Goldberg chimed in and said that "everybody is suffering," adding that blame should be placed where it belongs.

Goldberg said, "Gas prices aren't bad because of anything Biden did, it's just what he's going to absorb." 

Sunny Hostin added, "There is also a war going on in Ukraine." The price of gas had been on the rise prior to the war in Ukraine. 

Goldberg also said that the baby formula crisis "was not on him [Biden]." 

"Nobody ever says, you know, here's the cause of this, and here's how we have to fight this," she said. 

"He doesn't do everything I want him to do, he does a lot of stuff I'm very happy with, but he doesn't do everything," Goldberg noted, adding that she was going to "give everybody their due, when they do do something that they're supposed to do."

Grisham said that Goldberg proved her point, and that people don't understand what's going on, and that was going to effect the polls. 

Goldberg argued that it wouldn't affect the polls "if we tell [people] what's going on."
