Chris Christie turns down running with No Labels
Quick Glance: Chris Christie Declines No Labels Presidential Bid
  • Former New Jersey governor Chris Christie (R) has made the decision not to run as the No Labels candidate for president after extensively evaluating the prospects of a centrist third-party campaign against President Biden and former president Donald Trump.

  • During the recent weeks, Christie, along with his team, explored the possibility of joining a No Labels campaign, while No Labels leaders intensified their efforts to court him as a candidate.

  • In conclusion, Christie determined that while there is an abstract interest in a third choice in the upcoming election, there is no practical path to victory. The challenges include significant ballot access and legal expenses, a delayed start in fundraising campaign funds, and the risk of diverting votes from Biden to elect Trump as president, according to those involved.

  • The No Labels leaders have set a deadline in early April to nominate a presidential ticket, with a clear indication that they will only proceed if they can recruit someone with a feasible chance of winning. Individuals involved with No Labels have informed others in recent weeks that they anticipate Christie will be the nominee, as reported by individuals familiar with the discussions.

Biden campaign releases ad featuring Trump "bloodbath" comments
Quick Glance: Trump Defends 'Bloodbath' Comment and Claims Critics, Media Misinterpreted
  • Former President Donald Trump accused the media and Democrats of misconstruing his warning of a 'bloodbath' if he loses the election to President Joe Biden - emphasizing he was speaking about the fate of the auto industry, rather than threatening political violence, as his political adversaries and some pundits have suggested.

  • Trump wrote on Truth Social Monday that 'the Fake News Media, and their Democrat Partners in the destruction of our Nation . . . fully understood' he was referencing the auto industry when he told a crowd in Dayton, Ohio, over the weekend: 'if I don't get elected it's going to be a bloodbath for the whole—that's gonna be the least of it.' But some went further, with Biden's re-election campaign calling Trump 'a loser who . . . doubles down on his threats of political violence' in a statement in response to Trump's use of the word.

  • Trump expanded on his statements on Truth Social Monday, alleging that 'imports allowed by Crooked Joe Biden' are 'killing the automobile industry' while targeting the president's push for more electric vehicle manufacturing in an appeal to auto workers concerned about job loss from the transition to EVs.

  • Former Vice President Mike Pence, who said last week he would not endorse Trump's 2024 bid, defended Trump's 'bloodbath' comments in a CBS interview on Sunday, stating that 'the president was clearly talking about the impact of imports devastating the American automotive industry.'

Quick Glance: Trump Trails Biden in Fundraising Amid Legal Bill Challenges
  • President Biden's campaign maintains a significant financial edge over Donald Trump, who faces the challenges of fundraising for his potential return to office and settling his increasing legal bills seven months before the general election.

  • Federal Election Commission reports revealed Biden's clear financial advantage over Trump, with Biden having $71 million in cash on hand compared to Trump's $33.5 million - more than double his rival's reserves.

  • The reports highlight how Trump's legal issues are straining his campaign. Save America, the PAC used by the Trump campaign to cover legal expenses, spent more than it raised in February, with the majority of funds going towards legal costs.

  • While trailing Trump in early polls, Biden's campaign and allied groups are surpassing Trump's fundraising efforts and the cash amassed for the general election.
