In recent political events, former President Trump made a significant appearance at his first major campaign event in New York in 8 years. The event drew an estimated 25,000 supporters, far surpassing the initial expectation of 3,500 attendees. Trump's speech focused on promises to cut taxes and revitalize New York City, garnering cheers and excitement from his supporters.
Trump's aim to flip the traditionally blue New York City to red is evident in his strong rhetoric. Despite winning less than 10% of the vote in the Bronx in 2016 and slightly improving to 16% in 2020, recent polls indicate a 9% increase in Trump's support among black voters since October 2020.
Meanwhile, President Biden faced challenges during a joint press conference with the president of Kenya at the White House. Biden fielded questions from a select group of reporters and reprimanded one for asking two questions, emphasizing a one-question limit.
As Trump rallies his base in New York, Biden is set to return to Delaware. Tomorrow, Trump is scheduled to speak at the Libertarian Convention, where independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is also slated to address voters. This event is anticipated to be significant for Trump's campaign, as he seeks to engage with a broader audience.
