Politics Twitter would be a much better place if all us posters was forced to watch even just one (1) swing/sporadic voter focus group a month. Polls have their place, but nothing replaces hearing people in their own words. It’s a really good way to, effectively, touch grass.
Surreal seeing my @MELANIATRUMP painting displayed in the White House. Beyond grateful 🙏🏻 Remembering every brushstroke…from my studio to the walls of the West Wing. Deeply honored and still taking it all in! Thank you @karolineleavitt for valuing my work 🤍
Real Clear Politics' polling average finds Democrats have a greater lead in the generic congressional ballot than at any point in recent midterm cycles dating back to 2010:

Just so proud of the team that worked to elect @JoeBiden in 2020, and the team that worked for him since then. Some of the best people, and honored to be a part of it.
Trump talked a lot about bring manufacturing back to America.
But under Biden, manufacturing investment has grown faster than any time in recent history. And it's not even close.
During Trump's presidency, manufacturing spending grew by 5%. Under Biden it has grown by 279%.
This is exactly the Joe Biden I know. He’s supremely empathetic, compassionate, and unflinching in moments like these— exactly what you want in a leader.
