The White House has insisted that President Donald Trump was visiting Georgia to promote the economy. But in the opening minutes of his first stop at a local restaurant, the president raised the prospect of voter fraud without evidence and talked up his plan to require voters to show identification before casting ballots. He was visiting the congressional district previously represented by Marjorie Taylor Greene, a former supporter who resigned in January after feuding with Trump. The White House has long said Trump would focus more on the economy, but recent months have been dominated by other issues, including deportation efforts in Minneapolis, military action in Iran, and his false claims about the 2020 election.
Bernie Sanders is coming to Los Angeles to campaign for a proposed "billionaires tax" that has set off an uproar in the Silicon Valley and led to divisions among Democrats. Sanders has been railing for decades against the gap between rich and poor. Now he's scheduled an afternoon rally on Wednesday near downtown Los Angeles. The tax proposal has not qualified for the ballot so far. The proposal calls for imposing a one-time 5% tax on the assets of billionaires to backfill federal health funding cuts for lower-income people. The proposal has created a rift between Gov. Gavin Newsom and prominent members of his party's progressive wing ahead of the fall's midterm elections.
Democratic candidates have notched a series of wins in recent special elections — but a new AP-NORC poll finds views of the Democratic Party among rank-and-file Democrats have not bounced back since President Donald Trump's victory in 2024. Democrats' favorability among the party's rank-and-file plummeted after the 2024 election. The latest measure of how Democrats view their party hasn't improved since then. The midterm elections are still many months away, and lackluster favorability doesn't spell electoral doom. Other factors could benefit Democrats this year, including broadly negative views of Trump and other Republicans. But the lack of enthusiasm could be a longer-term problem for the party.
