[ [link removed] ]NY Times headline: Trump Is Ahead in Five of Six Swing States
The NY Times poll this weekend, "Trump Leads in 5 Critical States as
Voters Blast Biden," was not the only bombshell political story.
The Washington Post showed a glimpse of the stakes:
TRUMP AND ALLIES PLOT REVENGE
"Donald Trump and his allies have begun mapping out specific plans for
using the federal government to punish critics and opponents should he win
a second term, with the former president naming individuals he wants to
investigate or prosecute and his associates drafting plans to potentially
invoke the Insurrection Act on his first day in office to allow him to
deploy the military against civil demonstrations.
Ian Bassin, a top fighter for democracy, wrote on social media, "Let’s
call this what it is: Trump is planning a military dictatorship. This is
radical stuff that would end America as we know it."
Former Obama communications director Dan Pfeiffer wrote that the NY Times
poll "shows that not only can Trump win, he might now be a slight favorite
to do so…We have to persuade the voters we have lost since 2020."

While the NY Times poll shows "deep dissatisfaction over [Biden's]
handling of the economy," the Washington Post makes clear that the economy
will not be Trump’s priority should he win:
"In private, Trump has told advisers and friends in recent months that he
wants the Justice Department to investigate onetime officials and allies
who have become critical of his time in office….Trump has also talked of
prosecuting officials at the FBI and Justice Department, a person familiar
with the matter said.
"In public, Trump has vowed to appoint a special prosecutor to 'go after'
President Biden and his family….
"To facilitate Trump’s ability to direct Justice Department actions, his
associates have been drafting plans to dispense with 50 years of policy
and practice intended to shield criminal prosecutions from political
considerations. Critics have called such ideas dangerous and
unconstitutional."
We are working with national Democrats -- and in the states -- to
acknowledge people's economic pain, educate people about popular
Democratic policies, and make sure voters know that returning to Trump is
not the solution.
Wisconsin Democratic Party Chair Ben Wikler says "The PCCC is such a force
of nature in American politics."
