Trump vs Biden: who is leading?[1]

[Posted on : 2020-06-26 by Jamil Akhtar] Joe Biden and Donald Trump each need 270 electoral votes to win the presidency. Most states are leaning or solidly in favour of one candidate, but in some states the race is too close to call. These toss-up states are ranked below, with the closest races shown first. Which way do you think they will vote?

Does Trump Want to Fight for a Second Term?[2]

[Posted on : 2020-06-26 by Sharmin Alen] Advisers and allies say the president’s repeated acts of self-destruction have significantly damaged his re-election prospects, and yet he appears mostly unable, or unwilling, to curtail them.
In a recent meeting with his top political advisers, President Trump was impatient as they warned him that he was on a path to defeat in November if he continued his incendiary behavior in public and on Twitter.

Days earlier, Mr. Trump had sparked alarm by responding to protests over police brutality with a threat that “when the looting starts, the shooting starts.”

Mr. Trump pushed back against his aides. “I have to be myself,” he replied, according to three people familiar with the meeting. A few hours later, he posted on Twitter a letter from his former personal lawyer describing some of the protesters as “terrorists.”

Poland’s Right-Wing President Meets With Trump[3]

[Posted on : 2020-06-26 by Muneeb] President Trump resumed meeting with foreign leaders after months, and his first guest at the White House is in a close race that will be decided on Sunday.
President Trump welcomed President Andrzej Duda of Poland to the White House on Wednesday, his first meeting with a foreign leader since February and one that Democrats called an unseemly effort to boost a European ally whose country is tilting toward autocracy days before a close re-election vote.

Mr. Duda, who has served as Poland’s president since 2015, has presided over political restrictions on Poland’s judiciary, media and civil society while becoming one of Mr. Trump’s preferred foreign partners. The Polish election is on Sunday, a fact Mr. Trump made no effort to gloss over.

Pete Buttigieg : South Bend mayor[4]

[Posted on : 2020-06-25 by Ahmed Awan] The 37-year-old mayor of South Bend, Indiana, wants to be the first millennial president. The Harvard graduate and Rhodes scholar became the youngest mayor of a mid-size US city when he was elected in 2011 at the age of 29. A lieutenant in the Navy Reserve, Buttigieg deployed to Afghanistan while serving as mayor. In 2015, he came out as gay in a newspaper column. Is a young, red-state mayor the generational change Democrats are looking for?
