Former President Trump, despite facing a criminal trial, is making campaign stops in New York City. He aims to visit the Bronx, a predominantly Democratic borough, to gain support from Black and Hispanic voters. The Bronx is one of the most diverse and economically disadvantaged boroughs, with a significant population living below the poverty line. While Trump has historically received low support in the Bronx, his campaign believes he can make inroads with frustrated voters, especially younger males, who are facing economic challenges and may be attracted to Trump’s message. New York City Republicans point to a recent GOP city council seat win in the Bronx as a sign of improvement. However, Democrats are planning a counterprotest, emphasizing that Trump’s rhetoric on immigration is unwelcome in a diverse neighborhood like the South Bronx.

Former President Donald Trump has taken the lead over President Joe Biden in seven key swing states that could determine the outcome of the 2024 presidential election, according to a new Bloomberg News/Morning Consult poll. The poll found that Trump is leading Biden by 48% to 44% across the seven states, which include Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. These are all states that Biden won in the 2020 election. The poll also found that Trump is leading Biden in each of the individual states, including those that Biden won by narrow margins in 2020. These results come as Trump faces a hush money trial in New York City.

As the criminal trial against former President Donald Trump nears its conclusion, political experts are weighing in on the potential consequences a guilty verdict could have on the 2024 presidential election. Trump is facing nearly three dozen state felony charges related to falsifying business records in connection with payments made during the 2016 election to adult film actress Stormy Daniels. While public opinion polls indicate that a majority of registered voters believe Trump violated campaign finance laws, there is a wide partisan divide in views on the fairness of his trial. Some analysts suggest that a guilty verdict could have a temporary negative impact on Trump’s poll numbers, but ultimately, his supporters are likely to remain loyal. Others argue that attitudes towards both President Biden and Trump are deeply entrenched, and a verdict in the hush money trial is unlikely to significantly affect the presidential race.

Two Democratic primaries for U.S. House seats in Oregon are attracting attention as they could indicate the party’s leanings in the upcoming presidential election year. In the state’s 3rd Congressional District, candidates Maxine Dexter and Susheela Jayapal are leading in fundraising with similar platforms. The 5th Congressional District race, considered one of the most competitive in the country, pits establishment candidate Janelle Bynum against progressive Jamie McLeod-Skinner, who lost in the 2022 midterm primary.

As President Biden embarks on a weekend of outreach to Black voters in battleground states like Georgia and Michigan, Republican Congressman Byron Donalds has accused him of election-year pandering. Donalds argues that Democrats only show up in Black communities during election seasons to solicit votes, highlighting the persistent issues of inflation, an open border, and economic struggles under Biden’s administration. The President’s reelection campaign, however, emphasizes Biden’s record on job creation and support for Black businesses, while acknowledging the need to address challenges facing Black voters. Despite a surge in Trump’s support among Black voters, Donalds remains confident in Republican success in the upcoming election, predicting a return of Black voters to the GOP by November. Donalds, a Trump ally and potential running mate, also discusses his considerations for a possible run for Florida governor in 2026, while not ruling out national ambitions in four years.

Joe Biden and Donald Trump are planning to face off in debates, with Biden demanding no audience and muted mics after allotted time. Biden initially dismissed the idea of debating Trump but has since changed his mind. Some speculate that the Biden campaign is setting a trap for Trump and could use future events to back out of the debates.

The Republican Jewish Coalition (RJC) has announced plans to raise at least $5 million and launch a $15 million independent expenditure campaign in support of former President Trump’s 2024 presidential bid. This effort, described as the organization’s largest ever, comes amidst ongoing anti-Israel protests on college campuses and concerns within the Jewish community about rising antisemitism. RJC national political director Sam Markstein emphasized that the community is highly energized and eager to ‘turn the page’ from President Biden’s perceived failures and broken promises.

Potential vice presidential nominees for former President Donald Trump are demonstrating their ability to assist him in raising crucial campaign funds through closed-door fundraisers with major Republican donors. Tim Scott, Doug Burgum, Kristi Noem, and Vivek Ramaswamy have joined Trump at fundraising events, including a dinner in New York City with top GOP donors. Trump’s campaign estimates that these events and additional grassroots efforts will yield approximately $25 million this week.

North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum joined former President Donald Trump at his rally in Wildwood, New Jersey, sparking speculation about his inclusion on Trump’s potential running mate list.

Trump himself acknowledged Burgum’s expertise in energy, hinting at a possible role in his campaign.
