Recent polls have shown former President Trump leading in battleground states such as Arizona, putting pressure on President Biden to defend his record on key issues like immigration. The polls conducted in Arizona, Florida, Virginia, and Nevada indicate a challenging road ahead for President Biden.
In Virginia, a traditionally non-battleground state, both President Biden and former President Trump are tied at 48%. In Florida, where Republican voters outnumber Democrats by 900,000, Trump leads Biden 50% to 46%. Nevada shows Trump ahead of Biden at 50% to 45%, and in Arizona, Trump leads 51% to 46%. Voters in Arizona see Trump as the better candidate on issues like immigration and the economy.
Former President Trump criticized Biden's executive order on immigration, calling it weak and ineffective. Trump accused Biden of being pro-invasion, pro-trafficking, and bringing death and destruction into the country. The polls were conducted before Biden's executive order, but the results indicate a challenging landscape for the current administration.
President Biden defended his actions, stating that he does not regret the timing of his executive order. Despite Trump's leads in the polls being within the margin of error, they pose a significant challenge for Biden, who narrowly won states like Arizona and Nevada in the previous election.
President Biden also faced criticism for his appearance in Normandy, with the Republican National Committee Research Division questioning his mental acuity. Biden remains steadfast, expressing readiness to debate Trump later in the month. The upcoming debate is anticipated to be a significant event in the political landscape.
