There are 10 questions about politics for 2024
The role of Donald Trump’s campaign in the next three-year campaign: 10 questions for 2024 and politics (with a new analysis by Tom Biden)
A lot of the Trump views have gone anti-democratic on the campaign trail, so it’s going to be a lot of work for the Democrats to remind voters of that.
Most voters say Biden, 81, is too old to be president, and they give him low approval ratings, but they also really don’t like Trump, who isn’t so far off in age at 77.
But they’ve been targeted in a three-year campaign by Trump and allies. More Republicans in Congress are willing to stand up to Trump, due to him installing more loyalists in his campaign and state parties.
The reason that Trump was unable to stay in power was that the election officials, Congress and the courts held and did their jobs.
Trump’s election lies made it more difficult for the elections officials. Many people left their posts as they faced threats and lawsuits. That’s a lot of institutional knowledge that’s walked out the door, and there’s no telling what that will mean for the vote count.

The Problem of the Economy: Predictions for the Primary Voting Campaign from Biden’s First Day of Reelection in New Hampshire and Iowa
It’s the top issue for voters, and they are in a bad mood about it. Despite solid growth, low unemployment and declining inflation, Americans are pessimistic about the state of the economy according to polls.
President Biden is to blame for higher than people want food prices and mortgage rates. His ratings for handling the economy are low, which could hurt his reelection chances.
A president has little control over the economy, but his team has to hope that unemployment remains low and inflation recedes enough to give the Federal Reserve confidence to loosen its belt.
Expect Democrats to do everything possible to use the issue to motivate voters to go to the polls, especially as Republican-governed states continue to pass restrictions.
The perception of how Biden is handling foreign policy has hurt his presidency. When it comes to Israel, in particular, the war has fractured the Democratic base.
People like Robert F. Kennedy Jr, a environmentalist, and there is a chance of a No Labels candidate. There isn’t much to know about how they will factor into the race, but Trump has a strong base of voters.
The passion among Democratic voters is aimed at Trump, even though the Biden team uses phrases like that. Biden has legislative and policy accomplishments he loves to talk about and which Democrats are proud of. When the first primary ballots are cast in less than a month, voters will still be skeptical of Biden’s reelection bid and they want voters to see more of him than a typical election year choice.
Voting begins in Iowa and New Hampshire on January 15. Haley has staked a claim in New Hampshire as well as in Iowa. They have to convince voters to vote for them instead of Trump.
Trump and Joe Biden: Defending Democracy with the U.S. Senate and the Mueller Investigating Crime, and a Case Study in Georgia
There is a possibility that Trump might be on trial during the election. Georgia has proposed a start date in August with cameras in the courtroom. I don’t see how an O.J. Simpson-style trial will help Trump in a general election. Of course, this is someone who has always believed it’s better to be in the spotlight than not.
This is a serious issue. The United States is the leader in how well run, clean and efficient elections are.
With the Iowa caucuses less than two weeks away, a rematch of Trump and Joe Biden is highly likely — and wouldn’t be anything close to the usual competition between “four more years” and a reasonably sane, relatively coherent change of direction and pace. We’re on the cusp of something much scarier. Since 2020, Trump has had fury, revenge, and ambitions. The plans for a second Trump administration are more detailed and darker than those in the first. He seems better positioned, if elected, to slip free of the restraints and junk the norms that he didn’t manage to do away with before. The Komodo dragon was next to the Trump.
If Biden is in charge, the country will no longer have a country. Trump talks like that all the time. Biden warned about Trump in a similar way, but it could be even more of a focal point when he calculates how to win the reelection despite widespread economic apprehension and persistently low approval ratings.
“Let’s be clear about what’s at stake in 2024,” he said at a campaign event in Boston last month. Donald Trump and the Republicans are bent on destroying America’s democracy.
If the people on the losing side of an election believe that those on the winning side are digging the country’s graveyard, how do they accept and respect the results? There is a battle between governability and ungovernable America, a faintly civil and uncivil battle. It could possibly end with Trump losing in November. It might just get uglier.
The Biden Campaign: Campaigning for Reproductive Rights, Protection Rights, and Extremism in a Major Swing State
Experts are alarmed about Trump and not Biden. But Trump and his team are speaking to concerns regularly voiced far right Republican voters.
The Biden reelection campaign is kicking into a new higher gear, with two presidential campaign events on tap in the next week. Julie Chavez Rodriguez, the campaign manager, said the president’s message will be unmistakable and stark, which is how they are running the campaign. Because it does.
Michael Tyler said that the Biden campaign and the president believe this to be a very dire moment. Their message would probably be cast in neon. It isn’t subtle.
With just a handful of exceptions, since announcing he planned to run for reelection last spring, Biden hasn’t really campaigned publicly. Many of these themes are discussed in private fundraisers by him.
Last spring, the issue of abortion was a motivating factor for voters in a state Supreme Court race. The Supreme Court justices that overturned the precedent of abortion rights were appointed by Trump and he tried to avoid being pinned down on his stance on the issue. The Biden campaign doesn’t want to allow Trump to escape blame for abortion laws that are in place in red states.
Vice President Kamala Harris is set to visit another key swing state on Jan. 22, Wisconsin, to launch a multi-state tour focused on reproductive rights. The Supreme Court’s decision in favor of abortion rights last year was overturned on the anniversary.
These visits have electoral significance, in addition to being messaging. One of the key swing states in the 2020 presidential race will be Pennsylvania, while the first Democratic-party primary will be held in South Carolina next month. The state will mostly vote for the Republicans in November, but the majority of Democratic voters are African American. Black voters were a key part of Biden’s coalition in 2020 but Biden allies say they have work to do to keep them in his column.
The Mother Emanuel AME church is in Charleston, S.C. and Biden will visit there on Monday. The site of the white supremacist mass shooting is a historically black church. There, Biden will talk about another motivating theme for his campaign — pushing back against extremism and political violence, drawing a line from the Mother Emanuel shooting to the unrest in Charlottesville, Va., and Jan. 6.
The deputy campaign manager said during the call that the threat posed by Trump in 2020 is more dangerous than when Biden ran.
Biden and his team are building a campaign around an increasingly likely rematch with Former President Donald Trump. In Valley Forge, Pa., on Saturday, campaign officials say, Biden will lay out the stakes for this election — for American democracy and freedom — in a location with Revolutionary War symbolism. But Saturday isn’t just any day: It’s the anniversary of the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, when Trump supporters violently tried to help him cling to power after he lost to Biden in 2020.
