Kamala Harris leads Donald Trump by 4 points (49% to 45%) in the latest Economist/YouGov poll, and appears to be pulling away from suburban voters, according to the latest Reuters/Ipsos poll. Analysts say the former president’s chances of winning are high. The number of wins has mysteriously increased.
Meanwhile, President Trump rejected Fox News’ offer to host the final presidential debate between himself and his Democratic rival, and also rejected CNN’s invitation to participate in the second debate.
“There will be no rematch,” the Republican said on Truth Social. “So there’s nothing to discuss.”
In a two-hour speech Thursday at the Detroit Economic Club, President Trump called Milwaukee, Michigan’s largest city in a key battleground state, “terrible” in the same way he did before the Republican National Convention. He succeeded in degrading this city.
Meanwhile, Republicans are fed up with President Trump and prefer running mate J.D. Vance, but Democrat Tim Walz is a better candidate for president than his rival, according to an exclusive independent poll. That’s what I think.
Former Presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton are campaigning for Harris, with the 44th president speaking in Pittsburgh on Thursday night and the 42nd president focusing on rural voters. .
