Trump’s success might make you believe that he has turned the conventional wisdom on its head – that somehow, his legal troubles are helping him politically. There isn’t much of a sign that Trump’s legal woes are helping him among the wider electorate, even if they aren’t hurting him necessarily. Consider Trump’s polling against President Joe Biden. You might think that Trump would be gaining against Biden, if the cases against Trump were helping him. It’s not clear whether the money Trump’s raising because of appeals to his base during his legal troubles is offsetting the amount his committees are spending.

One of the most exciting parts of leaving college is leaving behind the scripted, predictable rhythm of school. After college, your friends change, your responsibilities change, your routine and habits change. If I could go back, I would tell myself to enjoy life a little bit more. Now is the time to enjoy life – don't be afraid to take time off from work, travel and take advantage of every opportunity to explore new places.

According to a Quinnipiac University poll, Americans would find charges to be disqualifying for a presidential run. But the overall picture of Americans' opinions on a potential Trump indictment is far more nuanced. According to a Quinnipiac University national poll released Wednesday, 57% of Americans think that criminal charges should disqualify Trump from running again. The same survey found that 46% of Americans say Trump's behavior has been illegal, 29% find it to be "unethical but not illegal," and only 23% say the former president has done nothing wrong at all. The Quinnipiac poll of 1,788 U.S. adults nationwide was conducted from March 23rd - 27th.

Arizona Republican gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake speaks at a get-out-the-vote rally Saturday in Scottsdale. A recent Marist College poll found Lake and Hobbs deadlocked in the final stretch of the nationally watched race. "That’s why I’ve spent the last two years working to lower costs and create better-paying jobs in Arizona." "We're getting pretty sick and tired of politicians who just lie," he went on, suggesting that Kelly "tricked" Arizona voters into thinking he was an independent when he is really a Democrat. Tucson voter Suzy Jacobs, a Democrat, said Masters represents a rising extremism in the Republican Party that she does not want to see control Arizona.
