Donald Trump leads Joe by Biden by five points in Georgia ahead of debate
Donald Trump leads Joe Biden by five points in Georgia two days ahead of the pivotal first presidential debate, which is being held in the state
It comes as the two candidates make final preparation for what could be one of the most consequential showdowns ever in presidential politics. CNN is hotsing the debate in Atlanta on Thursday night.
The poll is a setback for Biden who became the first Democrat in nearly 30 years to win the Peach State in 2020 on his way to the White House.
Biden's support has plummeted among young voters in Georgia with only 12 percent supporting him.
Overall, 70 percent said the country is on the 'wrong track,' according to the poll.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. got 9 percent in the poll, and 8 percent were undecided.
No donations to Trump from Fortune 100 CEOs
Not a single CEO of a Fortune 100 company has so far donated to Donald Trump, Axios reported.
Trump did not receive a donation from any of them in 2016 either, but did pick up a few in 2020.
Jeffrey Sonnenfeld, president of the Yale Chief Executive Leadership Institute, who gathered the data, wrote in the New York Times:
Trump group rolls out 'No Tax on Tips stickers' as it steps up effort to woo working class voters
Allies of former President Donald Trump on Tuesday are launching 'No Tax on Tips' stickers to turn every restaurant receipt into a campaign billboard.
Trump unveiled his campaign pledge earlier this month during a rally in Las Vegas as he tries to woo workers in service industries, promising that tipped workers would no long pay taxes on gratuities if he wins reelection in November.
The idea has caught hold among supporters who have been writing 'no tax on tips' on their receipts.
Now MAGA Inc.—the primary Super PAC supporting Trump's 2024 campaign—is offering to make it easier with stickers
Taylor Budowich, the group's chief executive, said: 'It's simple: President Trump wants hardworking American to keep more money in their pocket, Joe Biden wants to take it to give to illegal immigrants.
Hillary Clinton claims Donald Trump will unleash 'blizzard of lies' on debate stage
Hillary Clinton has offered her advice to Joe Biden on debating Donald Trump, which she did in 2016.
Writing in the New York Times Clinton said it is 'nearly impossible to focus on substance' debating Trump. She said:
How racy Republican Lauren Boebert could win her Colorado primary despite messy divorce, son's legal drama, groping and vaping on a date and other antics
In a new district and swamped in controversy, Rep. Lauren Boebert faces off in a crowded primary on Tuesday.
The fiery Colorado Republican switched from the 3rd to the 4th congressional district to run in former Rep. Ken Buck's more reliably Republican seat in the upcoming election after barely prevailing over her Democratic opponent Adam Frisch in the last election.
On Tuesday she will face off against state Reps. Mike Lynch and Richard Holtorf, conservative activist and talk radio host Deborah Flora, Logan County Commissioner and former state Senate President Pro Tempore Jerry Sonnenberg and banking executive Peter Yu.
The Colorado residents who haven't made their choice - and may pay more attention to the controversies surrounding her - could be crucial to Boebert's survival in Congress.
Biden's student loan forgiveness plan suffers huge blow
Two federal judges in Kansas and Missouri on Monday sided with several Republican-led states and stopped the Democrat from moving forward with a key student debt relief initiative.
In total, the Administration has already approved almost $160 billion in relief for nearly 4.6 million borrowers.
U.S. District Judge Daniel Crabtree in Wichita, Kansas, blocked the U.S. Department of Education from proceeding with parts of a plan set to take effect July 1 designed to lower monthly payments and speed up loan forgiveness for millions of Americans.
Trump claims he was 'tortured' in Fulton County Jail
A fundraising email from Donald Trump's election campaign claims the former president was 'tortured' when he turned himself into a Georgia jail last August.
They splashed his glowering image across campaign merchandise including t-shirts, mugs, beer koozies and more.
Ahead of Trump's first debate with Biden and in the wake of his convictions in Manhattan, they're using it again in a campaign mailer sent out Monday.
The email writes: 'I want you to remember what they did to me. They tortured me in the Fulton County Jail, and TOOK MY MUGSHOT. So guess what?'
Squad member Jamaal Bowman faces disaster in New York
Democratic Rep. Jamaal Bowman is fighting for his political survival as voters head to the polls in New York for the Democratic primary.
The far-left Squad member is locked in a contentious primary against George Latimer, and polls show he is hanging on by a thread.
The primary will test whether his support for Palestinians, his furious criticism of Israel and his progressive policies will lead to his downfall in his Bronx and Westchester district.
Bowman is seeking a third term in a primary that has seen historic levels of spending. The powerful American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) has poured $15million into the campaign against him.
'We are going to show f***ing AIPAC, the power of the motherf***ing South Bronx!' Bowman yelled Saturday at a rally with fellow progressive 'Squad' member Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and democratic socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt.
