The most recent polls indicate that former President Donald Trump’s popularity is on the rise, while President Joe Biden’s chances of being reelected are looking increasingly bleak. According to the New York Times/Siena College survey, Trump is leading in five of the six crucial swing states. This is a significant shift, considering Biden had won all of these states in the 2020 election. Trump’s support has grown among young voters, as well as Black and Hispanic voters, which has contributed to his lead in key swing states such as Georgia, Nevada, Arizona, and Pennsylvania. The only swing state where Biden is currently leading is Wisconsin.
These polls also reflect that the concerns of the participants are closely tied to the economy, the Israel-Hamas war, and illegal immigration, with over 70 percent of them expressing a strong desire for a significant change in the country. Only 13 percent believe that Biden is capable of bringing about such a change if he were to serve a second term as president. Additionally, many voters, while not being Trump’s biggest supporters, have indicated they would choose him over Biden in the upcoming election in November.

Not only is Trump gaining ground in key swing states, but he is also making significant headway in traditionally Democrat-led states. In Minnesota, a state that has not voted Republican since 1972, Trump is currently three points ahead of Biden. Trump has even expressed his confidence in winning Minnesota during his visit to the state, where he is set to headline a rally. Moreover, Trump’s rally in Wildwood, New Jersey, attracted over 100,000 attendees, indicating his strong appeal in deep-blue states. These developments underscore Trump’s growing popularity and appeal across various regions, posing a significant challenge to President Biden’s chances of reelection.
