Recent polling suggests nearly 9 in 10 Americans believe Mr. Biden’s decision to step aside was the right one. 65 called Mr. Biden’s withdrawal a coup or said it amounted to election interference. These statements have tended to argue that Mr. Biden’s decision to end his candidacy was not his own, was not democratic or both. Some of this language began to bubble up among Republicans even before Mr. Biden announced that he would drop out. One common line of attack, positing that Ms. Harris failed as a “border czar,” is misleading.

Anadolu | Anadolu | Getty ImagesThe "Trump trade" could unwind after President Joe Biden withdrew from the 2024 presidential election, throwing his weight behind Vice President Kamala Harris. The Trump trade refers to plays on stocks that are expected to benefit if the former president returns to the White House. CNBC previously reported that Wall Street sees a Trump win as good for stocks as the Republican candidate has called for lower taxes and deregulation. The strategist predicted the U.S. dollar would soften as some of the "Trump trade" unwinds, adding that he believes the prospect of a Democratic victory has marginally increased. Roche said, however, that a Harris nomination increases the chance of a Trump win, but lowers the odds of the Republicans winning both houses of Congress.

☆ Biden, allied groups $140 million campaign war chest dwarfs Republican rivals
▼ + stars: | 2024-02-01 | by ( Brian Schwartz | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

Here's a breakdown of the cash that each Biden allied committee had to start the year. The first is the fact that the Republican National Committee has yet to throw its weight behind a Republican primary candidate, preferring to remain neutral while the party's primary is still actively underway. Chief among them is how much Trump's campaign spends on legal bills, as the president prepares for what could be four criminal trials in the coming year. In 2023, Trump's campaign and allied committees spent $47 million on lawyers and legal fees, newly released filings reveal. Trump will also have to spend money to continue waging a primary campaign against his sole remaining rival, former U.N. ambassador Nikki Haley.
