Frustrated Independents Give Trump An Edge Over Biden In 2024: I&I/TIPP Poll

Issues & Insights, by Terry Jones

 

 

 

Former President Donald Trump continues to face legal charges on his return path to the presidency, while current President Joe Biden carries his age, fading mental acuity, and charges of corruption as he seeks a second term.

 

So who has the edge now in the head-to-head electoral matchup for 2024? Thanks to solid independent voter backing, Trump still edges out Biden, the latest I&I/TIPP Poll shows. Trump wins 43% of the overall vote, while Biden gets 41% in the national online I&I/TIPP Poll, taken from Jan. 31-Feb. 2, with 1,266 registered voters participating. The poll has an overall +/-2.8 percentage-point margin of error.

Why Is The Left Suddenly Talking About A ‘Coup’ At The Ballot Box?

Issues & Insights, by The Editorial Board

 

For the past three years, the left has claimed Donald Trump lied about the 2020 election and then attempted an insurrection on Jan. 6 to overturn the results. But now that Trump is leading in polls, the left is talking ominously about a “coup.” Pay attention, because if Trump wins in 2024, this will be how the left tries to stop him from getting anything done.

 

At a protest in Washington, D.C., a week ago – organized by a group that calls itself “Stop the Coup 2025” – Markus Batchelor, the national political director of People for the American Way, told the crowd that “Jan. 6 was just a dress rehearsal.”

 

So is this group predicting Trump will try to take over in 2025 even if Biden wins reelection?

 

Not exactly. He went on to say that coups “don’t need weapons to succeed.” He said that “coups can be committed by pen and paper,” “coups can be committed at the ballot,” and “coups can be committed by seemingly democratic processes.”

 

Come again?

 

The definition of “coup d’etat” in Merriam-Webster’s dictionary is “the violent overthrow or alteration of an existing government by a small group.”

 

What is Batchelor saying? That if Trump wins in November it will be the equivalent of a violent overthrow of government?

 

Basically, yes.

 

The Stop the Coup website says that: “The GOP plans to install a Day One Dictator and dismantle our democracy.”
