Earlier this year, Bailey promised to turn out $100 million and 5 million votes for Trump. Hoyos-López, Bailey's neighbor, had been recently orange-pilled, and was anxious to help out any way she could in getting Trump to Nashville. At the conference, Hoyos-López, Fabiano and Bailey worked to stage a second roundtable with Trump. To Fabiano, Bailey, and Hoyos-López, the stakes couldn't possibly be higher, as Democratic nominee Kamala Harris gains momentum in the polls. Less than a week after leaving Nashville, Fabiano, Hoyos-López and Bailey were back together closer to home to process all that had happened.

Read previewWhen Kamala Harris took up Joe Biden's mantle last month and launched her campaign for president, she did so knowing that she'd have an abbreviated run leading up to the election. Harris' campaign started with sighs of relief from Democratic voters over Biden dropping out and instant enthusiasm that contributed to Harris' record-breaking fundraising efforts, Dagnes, who focuses on political media, said. "Young people represent a strategic sector for Kamala for two reasons," Gutiérrez told BI. AdvertisementTrump has also tried several lackluster nicknames against Harris, like "Laffin' Kamala Harris" and "Cackling Copilot Kamala Harris," which haven't gained traction like "Sleepy Joe" did against Biden. "By maintaining a high level of visibility and continuing to address key voter issues, Harris is well-positioned to leverage the remaining campaign period effectively."

The Federal Open Market Committee has two interest rate decisions scheduled before the election in July and September. "I think it's past time for them to cut interest rates," Zandi said. During a February interview with Fox News, Trump accused Powell of being "political" and planning interest rate cuts to coincide with the election. "I think he's going to do something to probably help the Democrats, I think, if he lowers interest rates," Trump said, adding that "it looks to me like he's trying to lower interest rates for the sake of maybe getting people elected."

Donald Trump reportedly does not plan to mention President Joe Biden by name during his speech accepting the presidential nomination at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee. But the plan underscores the growing uncertainty that Biden will be the Democratic presidential nominee in November who faces Trump. Fox reported that Trump, who left the White House in January 2021, intends during his hour-plus-long speech to refer to the "current administration" or the "current leadership." One man was killed in the attack, and two other men were critically injured.

An AI-driven stock market bubble could burst early if Trump wins the 2024 election, according to Capital Economics. Trump's proposed policies on tariffs and immigration could slow economic growth and spark higher inflation, the firm said. Higher inflation would restrict the Federal Reserve's ability to cut interest rates. AdvertisementThe ongoing stock market bubble that has been inflated by a strong rally in AI stocks could pop prematurely if former President Donald Trump wins the 2024 election. A second Trump Presidency "could potentially result in the imposition of universal tariffs and reductions in immigration," Higgins said.

At a campaign event in late June, Trump called Biden-era student debt relief measures "vile," suggesting that student loan borrowers shouldn't count on forgiveness under a second Trump administration. A recent Supreme Court ruling striking down the Chevron doctrine has already weakened the Education Department.
