Biden’s Problems Are More Than Skin-Deep

Both Trump and DeSantis are now leading against the incumbent — Whether it’s Harvard Harris, ABC News and the Washington Post, the Economist and YouGov, or many others, the news is grim across the board. Biden currently finds himself stuck in the middle of a Republican sandwich, being squeezed from either side. …

The Democratic Party’s Reliance on Donald Trump Has to End

It’s lazy and unimaginative — and worst of all, it isn’t working — “Do you want Joe Biden to become president” and “Do you want to stop Trump from becoming president” are two very different questions indeed. Questions which the Democratic party seems to have conflated. In their minds, Biden not being Trump is his biggest USP — one that needs to be…

Why is Trump Leading Biden in the Polls?

And is he likely to stay there? — Did you see it coming? Most didn’t. But it seems the tide has started to turn in the direction Biden wants least. Before the Town Hall, CNN came out with Biden’s latest approval rating: 36%. It was the worst any president has had at this point in their first term…

DeSantis Had One Chance to Win the Primary and He’s Lost It

Is it game over for the governor? — It’s the uniquely tragic tale of Ron DeSantis. Until recently, he was the only Republican who could win the general but couldn’t win his own party’s primary to get there. And that electability in 2024 was his biggest selling point. But now, he’s lost that too. Trump, according to ABC…

Would DeSantis Be Trump’s Best Pick For VP?

Get the Florida governor on board and he could hit two birds with one stone — but there are problems — Politics is a funny business. It can have you turning on friends and allying with foes. A Trump and DeSantis ticket would be a mixture of both. Once a Trump endorsement, DeSantis found himself in Trump’s crosshairs once the presidency was on the line. …

Retribution, the Final Battle, and a War of Words: The 2024 Trump Campaign

3 factors that are not only going to shape his campaign but a new wave of Trumpian resistance across America — If one thing is clear from Trump’s campaign so far, it’s his desire for payback. Some are saying that’s part of the reason why Trump 24 is going to be much more dangerous than Trump 16. …

Biden Has a New Problem on His Hands: RFK Jr.

The challenger is rising in the polls — fast — What do you do if you’re an aging president who’s unwanted, has a less-than-ideal running mate, and — despite three successive correction attempts — only managed to endorse your opponent instead of yourself? You worry. But what if, in addition to all that, your biggest threat from within the party…

The Democrats Have Made a Serious Political Miscalculation

They’re pushing America into a situation where Biden’s second in command will be forced to assume control — The nuts and bolts of the argument is this: if you’ve got a president who’s, sooner or later, going to lose the ability to govern, you’re making his choice for his number two more important than he is himself. It’s not something that can be overlooked, especially when you’re talking…

The Democrats Are Snatching Defeat From the Jaws of Victory

Blatantly disregarding your own voters is always a good election strategy — What were they thinking? The polls are clear. 53% of Democrats and over 60% of Americans do not want Biden to run again. Over 50% of the latter don’t even want him to be president right now. And yet, they’re not holding any debates? …

Have the Lawsuits Damaged Trump’s Strongman Image?

Or is once a strongman always a strongman? — Bombastic, vengeful, and a master of words — Donald Trump is a tricky operator. Just when you think he’s down and out for the count, he sits up like the Undertaker, eyeing his enemy, saying “I’m not done yet.” Hit with felony charge after felony charge, bad press after bad…
