Former President Donald Trump was forced to cancel his Wilmington, North Carolina, rally, sending his supporters home with a blessing.<\/p>\n
Trump called in to inform his followers of the news.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs you can see there\u2019s some very bad weather heading in,\u201d Trump said. \u201cWe\u2019re flying in in a few minutes, but they really would prefer that we not come in because there\u2019s a certain danger to all of this, and we want to make sure everybody is safe, above all. And so they\u2019ve asked us to ask people to leave the site and seek shelter.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd what we\u2019ll do is we\u2019ll make up for this very quickly at another time. We\u2019ll do it as quick as possible. I\u2019m devastated that this could happen, but we want to keep everybody safe. That\u2019s the most important thing,\u201d Trump continued. \u201cSo if you don\u2019t mind, I think we\u2019re going to have to just do a rain check.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m so sad. I\u2019m in North Carolina right now and waiting to go in, but they\u2019re saying the weather is really getting bad. Really, really getting bad. I\u2019m so sorry,\u201d Trump said, according to the Wilmington Star News. \u201cBut we\u2019ll do it again, and we\u2019ll do it bigger and better. You have my promise.\u201d<\/p>\n
Trump closed by thanking those who had come out, saying, \u201cGod be with you.\u201d<\/p>\n
A new survey has found that Trump has managed to outpoll President Joe Biden in a state critical to both of their campaigns.<\/p>\n

According to the Marquette Law School poll, Trump holds a two-point lead over the Democratic incumbent among registered voters in Wisconsin, with 51 percent supporting Trump and 49 percent supporting Biden.<\/p>\n
This marks a gain for Trump since January when both candidates were tied at 49 percent.<\/p>\n
\u201cWisconsin is one of seven crucial swing states in the 2024 presidential election and is worth 10 electoral votes. The other six swing states are Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, North Carolina, Michigan, and Pennsylvania, which total 93 electoral votes along with Wisconsin,\u201d The Daily Wire reported.<\/p>\n
In the same poll, while Trump leads Biden in the Midwestern state, Democratic incumbent Sen. Tammy Baldwin holds a five-point lead over Republican challenger Eric Hovde among registered voters, with Baldwin at 52 percent and Hovde at 47 percent. However, among likely voters, the two Senate candidates are tied.<\/p>\n
The coalition of voters Biden galvanized to defeat the former president in the 2020 presidential election appears to be crumbling, including black voters.<\/p>\n
A CNN segment earlier this month pointed out that Biden was, at the time, behind Trump in six of seven swing states\u2014Arizona, Nevada, Michigan, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and Georgia\u2014while Biden was leading by three points in Wisconsin.<\/p>\n
Moreover, Trump is leading Biden on issues that are the biggest concerns for voters this cycle.<\/p>\n
\u201cLook at the why: what is going on? Alright, trusted more, again, this is across all of these key seven swing states,\u201d CNN political analyst Harry Enten said.<\/p>\n
\u201cLook, Donald Trump is trusted more than Joe Biden in basically all the important issues \u2014 the economy, inflation, 20-point lead, immigration, border, 20-point lead, the Israel-Hamas war, 14-point lead, the Russia-Ukraine war, nine-point lead, protecting democracy, well within the margin of error, which I think is something the that should worry that Biden camp, given that has been harping and Democrats been harping on this,\u201d Enten continued. \u201cJust a one-point advantage.<\/p>\n
\u201cOn abortion, Democrats and Joe Biden have a 12-point advantage. They would love this campaign to be about abortion, but at this particular point, it\u2018s about this. And it\u2018s about this with perhaps a little bit of this,\u201d Enten said, pointing out the main concerns of voters, \u201cand all these issues favor Donald Trump.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nThe host pointed out that Democrats and Biden have been \u201crunning on protecting democracy, and that\u2019s a wash right now.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is a Wash. And this is not the only poll that shows\u2026 was looking at a Quinnipiac University poll last month, last week, excuse me, that showed the same thing,\u201d Enten said. \u201cAnd it\u2018s something that RFK Jr. said to our colleague, Erin Burnett, saying, I\u2018m not quite sure \u2014 Joe Biden may be worse for protecting democracy. It turns out a lot of voters agree on that.<\/p>\n
\u201cOne little last thing I\u2018ll point out \u2014 is the U.S. on the right track or wrong track of presidential elections? Right track, 25 percent average when the president\u2019s party loses since 1980 \u2014 25% (now for Biden). It looks very much that type of campaign that we\u2018ve seen before right now,\u201d Enten concluded.<\/p>\n
Trump\u2019s increasing appeal to blue-collar workers will likely be put to the test in Michigan this year, home to the country\u2019s auto industry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
