President Joe Biden’s mood has turned sour as he struggles to gain ground against his formidable opponent, former President Donald Trump. Reports from NBC News reveal that Biden is feeling frustrated and “second-guessing” his campaign strategy, as Trump gains momentum in swing states and garners national support.

Biden’s supporters are worried as the former president’s strong position in the polls begins to take a toll on Biden’s morale. He is reportedly feeling “cocooned” and has been lashing out in response to dropping poll numbers in key states such as Georgia and Michigan. His handling of the conflict in Gaza has also been called into question, adding to his mounting frustration.
In an attempt to regain control, Biden sought to showcase his achievements in his recent State of the Union address, but his fiery delivery and confrontational behavior with the audience did little to bolster his support. Despite his efforts, Biden continues to lag behind Trump in national polls by a significant margin. This is a far cry from the situation four years ago, when Biden was comfortably ahead of Trump in almost every poll.
However, Biden’s campaign has managed to secure substantial fundraising, with a whopping $53 million raised in February alone. On the other hand, Trump faces his own set of challenges, including legal battles and the looming threat of criminal indictments.
As the election season heats up, Biden finds himself in a precarious position, desperately trying to fend off the surging Trump. The stakes are high, and the race only seems to be getting more intense as both candidates strive for victory.
