According to a recent poll, President Trump currently holds a lead in six of the seven key swing states that are expected to determine the 2024 Presidential Election.
The results of the Bloomberg/Morning Consult swing state poll are as follows:
Trump leads Biden by seven points in Arizona (49%-42%).
Trump leads Biden by six points in Georgia (49%-43%).
Trump leads Biden by eight points in Nevada (51%-43%).
Trump leads Biden by ten points in North Carolina (51%-41%).
Trump leads Biden by four points in Wisconsin (48%-44%).
Trump leads Biden by one point in Pennsylvania (47%-46%).
Biden only leads Trump in Michigan by just two points with 47%-45%.
Joe Biden won with massive voter fraud in all of these states in 2020 except for North Carolina.
Trump’s lead from a December 2023 Bloomberg/Morning Consult poll has increased by three points in Arizona, five points in Nevada, and one point in North Carolina.
POLL: Donald Trump Leads Biden in Seven Swing States Heading Into 2024
70% of voters in these states said the United States economy is on the “wrong track,” and 51% of voters say they trust Trump more on the economy, while just 36% say Biden.
This comes as the GDP dropped faster than expected in the first quarter of 2024 and at half the rate of Q4 2023. Real GDP increased 1.6% after rising 3.7% in the fourth quarter of 2023.
Meanwhile, inflation rose to 3.7% in the first quarter – squeezing consumers who are already strapped in the Biden economy.
Per New York Post,
Swing-state voters said the economy was the top issue with almost six months to go before Election Day, with 82% saying it will be “very important” in deciding whom they vote for and 34% saying it would be their single most important issue.
Immigration ranked second, with 15% saying it was their top issue, while abortion and democracy were tied for third at 9% each.
Seven in 10 respondents said they viewed the US economy as going in the “wrong direction,” while 57% said the same about the economy in their own state.
The bad poll numbers for Biden come despite his campaign spending $30 million in the month after his March 7 State of the Union address on ad buys and campaign stops in critical swing states — a push that Democrats dubbed the “Month of Action.”
Trump campaign national press secretary Karoline Leavitt told The New York, “Americans realize if they want to make gas cheap again and keep more money in their pockets, they must vote Trump.” Leavitt added, “Joe Biden’s economic policies are robbing people of thousands every month, and Biden is doubling down, promising to sign the largest tax hike in American history if given another four years in the White House.”

After the release of this incriminating audio, federal agents raided J6 political prisoner Ryan Samsel’s jail cell and dragged him to solitary confinement in the hole of the Metropolitan Detention Center Brooklyn on Thursday night.
Earlier today, Alicia Powe at The Gateway Pundit exposed J6 insurrection leader Ray Epps lying to the FBI in a leaked interview to The Gateway Pundit.
Epps repeatedly lied to authorities saying he was listening to President Trump’s speech at the Ellipse when there is numerous video clips proving Epps was not being truthful.
Ray Epps was directing Trump supporters to the US Capitol for hours before the protests on Capitol Hill. Epps later was one of the leading protesters who broke through the first and second set of barriers going to the US Capitol.
J6 Political Prisoner Ryan Samsel Exposes James Ray Epps Breaking Federal Law In Leaked FBI Call: ‘We Were Listening To The, Uh, Speech’ [Part 2]
Samsel was removed from his jail cell hours after TGP published the leaked audio of Epps’ phone call to the feds.
He is now being held in solitary confinement in one of the most notoriously dangerous jail systems in the country.
Ryan Samsel suspected he would face government retaliation for exposing the truth. He was right.
“I challenge the government. Even if they may retaliate and assault me for exposing the truth like they usually do — you can’t fear, folks. I’m curious as to why I am being treated like this, and guys like Ray Epps are free?” Samsel told TGP while reviewing the uncovered audio.
“Epps is a free man with his family at home when I’ve been constantly moved to dozens of different jails – I’ve been in New York; I’ve been in Philly, I’ve been in Virginia, moved everywhere –and each place I’ve gone I’ve been extremely mistreated. Still to this day, I haven’t gotten any medical treatment.
“I put God first. If they want to take my life, all they can do is destroy my body. I want to take care of it as best I can, but if they want to kill it, you can have it. Come get it. The soul — you can’t destroy my soul.”

Another one!
Regulators seized Philadelphia-based Republic First Bancorp on Friday.
“Republic First operated branches in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New York under the name Republic Bank. It had around $6 billion in total assets at the end of 2023.” – The Wall Street Journal reported.
This is the fourth bank failure since last March on Joe Biden’s watch.
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) was appointed as receiver by Pennsylvania state regulators and immediately entered into an agreement with Fulton Bank to assume assets and deposits of Republic First Bancorp.
“Philadelphia-based Republic Bank was closed late today by Pennsylvania bank regulators, which appointed the FDIC as receiver. To protect depositors, we entered into an agreement with Fulton Bank to assume substantially all deposits and assets of Republic,” the FDIC said in a statement on Friday.
“Republic Bank’s 32 branches in New Jersey, Pennsylvania and New York will reopen as branches of Fulton Bank on Saturday (for branches with normal Saturday hours) or on Monday during normal business hours. This evening and over the weekend, depositors of Republic Bank can access their money by writing checks or using ATM or debit cards. Checks drawn on Republic Bank will continue to be processed and loan customers should continue to make their payments as usual,” the FDIC said.
“Depositors of Republic Bank will become depositors of Fulton Bank so customers do not need to change their banking relationship in order to retain their deposit insurance coverage. Customers of Republic Bank should continue to use their existing branches until they receive notice from Fulton Bank that it has completed systems changes that will allow its branch offices to process their accounts as well,” the FDIC said.

Last month trading of Long Island lender New York Community Bancorp halted on the New York Stock Exchange after its shares tumbled more than 40%.
The regional bank announced a $1 billion capital raise later that day.
Last March Moody’s Investors Service cut its outlook for the entire US banking sector to negative and put six banks on ‘downgrade’ watch.
Silicon Valley Bank, First Republic Bank and Signature Bank failed last year after depositors withdrew billions of dollars from the lending institutions.

The absolute state of this country.
A Delta passenger had a profanity-laced meltdown at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) after she missed her flight and demanded to speak to Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg.
“Get me up on the next flight. And pay for that shit!” she shouted as she slammed her fists on the counter. “I will call Pete Buttigieg right now!”
It turns out she was in the wrong terminal. The unhinged Delta passenger was screaming at employees who work for Canadian-based WestJet.
The airline employees laughed as the unidentified passenger melted down.

The Associated Press admitted the obvious in a report on Friday: “Charges against Trump’s 2020 ‘fake electors’ are expected to deter a repeat this year.”
Author Nicholas Riccardi goes even further, suggesting the latest indictment of 18 people in Arizona “could help shape the landscape of challenges to the 2024 election.”
81 Million vote-getter Joe Biden must be proud of his comrades in Arizona, Michigan, Georgia, and New York.
The Gateway Pundit reported that the still questionably elected Kris Mayes announced felony charges against 18 Trump allies and alternative electors on Wednesday afternoon for the non-crime of questioning the 2020 election. She defended her witch hunt and the curious timing of the indictment – just months before the 2024 general election.
The charges include nine counts of conspiracy, fraudulent schemes and artifices, fraudulent schemes and practices, and forgery. “Defendants and unindicted coconspirators schemed to prevent the lawful transfer of the presidency to keep Unindicted Coconspirator 1 in office against the will of Arizona’s voters,” the indictment alleges.
Elen leftist operatives and leftwing media admit the charges are a warning shot to anyone who may want to challenge the 2024 election. See the full list of 18 defendants facing felony charges in Arizona here.
Mayes recently said the quiet part out loud late last month, declaring, “We absolutely have to get President Biden reelected,” before announcing the indictment by an Arizona grand jury in the latest election interference lawfare.

However, the alleged crime is perfectly legal and has legal precedent.
Per Politico:
By December 1960, it was clear Kennedy had won. Only Hawaii’s result remained in doubt. Nixon had prevailed by just 140 votes, according to the initial results, which were certified by the governor. A recount was underway on Dec. 19, 1960, when presidential electors across the nation were required by law to meet and cast their ballots.
Nixon’s Hawaii electors met and cast their three votes in an official ceremony. But nearby, Kennedy’s three elector nominees gathered and signed their own certificates, delivering them to Washington as though Kennedy had won the state.
As was done in Hawaii, Arizona’s Trump electors met and cast their votes in case of a successful legal challenge while lawsuits challenging the stolen 2020 election were still ongoing.
Recall that the Arizona Attorney General at the time, Mark Brnovich, released a report on his investigation in April 2022, stating that “between 100,000 and 200,000 ballots were transported without a proper chain of custody,” and individuals would be prosecuted for election fraud. However, the weak, lethargic AG never followed through.
Even the election officials in Maricopa County, which accounts for roughly 60% of Arizona’s voters, knew the election was rigged with dead voters, ballot harvesting, and shady machine software and admitted that the County’s in-house audit of the 2020 election was “bulsh*t.” Former Maricopa County Supervisor Steve Chucri previously stated that his colleagues lied because they were too scared to do a real audit in conversations while the Arizona 2020 election audit was ongoing.
The AP article also cites David Becker, the far-left operative who founded the Soros-funded ERIC system, and Justin Levitt of the Brennan Center, one of the organizations that petitioned the Biden Department of Justice to shut down the 2020 election audit in Arizona, to drive home the point that the reason behind the indictments is deterrence.
The same people who have been trying to deter election investigations since November 2020 are finally getting their wish thanks to the Marxist Attorneys General and District Attorneys the Biden Regime sent in to go after Republicans.
The Federalist reports,
The outlet cited Center for Election Innovation & Research founder David Becker — whose organization helped dump hundreds of millions of dollars in “Zuckbucks” into local election offices to influence election administration — to emphasize the “deterrent effect.”
“People are going to have to think twice about doing things to undermine the election,” Becker told the AP. “The deterrent effect is real.”
Riccardi also quoted Justin Levitt, a veteran of the left-wing Brennan Center who was tapped as a senior adviser for “democracy and voting rights” by the Biden White House in 2021, to cheer the “severity” of the lawfare being waged against Republicans.
“One of the things that fosters deterrence most is swiftness and severity,” Levitt reportedly said. “Though the wheels of justice are turning slow, they are turning, and we are seeing consequences for the lieutenants in this conspiracy.”
It’s not just the AP drawing the connection. A well-known election integrity advocate told The Federalist she was contacted by a New York Times reporter on Thursday and was asked whether the Arizona indictments and other “state elections cases impact your strategy/approach to the 2024 election?”
Additionally, as the Federalist notes, Peter Beinart wrote an article in The Atlantic on November 21, 2016, titled “The Electoral College Was Meant to Stop Men Like Trump From Being President,” as many Democrats urged electors to vote for Hillary Clinton following her 2016 defeat. Larry Lessig also wrote for The Washington Post on November 24, 2016, an article titled “The Constitution lets the electoral college choose the winner. They should choose Clinton.”
