Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

This is the best summary I could come up with:
The former president is currently on trial in New York over claims he falsified business records to conceal the payment of hush money to a former pornographic actress ahead of the 2016 presidential election, with the prosecution delivering its closing arguments on Tuesday.
During this time, 372,689 respondents answered the question drawn from those who signed up to take part in Civiqs' surveys, which the company says it monitors to provide a "representative sample" of the American population for each poll.
Speaking to Newsweek, Mark Shanahan, an American politics expert who teaches at the University of Surrey in the U.K., said Biden was struggling to get his economic message to resonate with the public.
"It will be worrying for his campaign that although Biden has been visible in the swing states, his rival, who has largely been stuck in a New York court room, is still seen to have more effective economic policies.
When approached by Newsweek, a spokesperson for Civiqs said: "President Biden's job approval rating is lower in the presidential battleground states than it is nationwide.
Polling by Civiqs of 486,369 respondents online between January 20, 2021, and May 27, 2024, revealed President Joe Biden's popularity in a number of the key states that could decide the 2024 presidential election was lower than in the country as a whole.
