Trump outperforming the Republican brand

 Washington Examiner:

President Joe Biden’s main problem when it comes to Latino voters is his brand, according to a poll released on Tuesday, even as Latino voters support Democratic stances on most subjects.

Biden has seen his advantage over former President Donald Trump regarding Latino voters shrink from 29% in 2021 to 9% in 2024, according to the Axios-Ipsos poll.

Outside of the presidential election, Latino voters are more in favor of Democrats than they are of Republicans.

“In almost every case, Trump performs better than the Republican brand and Biden performs worse than the Democratic brand,” Chris Jackson, Ipsos pollster and senior vice president, told Axios.

The complaints are largely due to high crime rates and inflation, which have given Trump an 11-point lead for fighting crime and a 22-point lead for the economy. But Democrats are closing their gaps on the economy and crime rates even if Biden isn’t.

Democrats still see support from Latino voters on matters such as abortion and immigration, but respondents are mixed on what immigration should look like. For example, most support providing a pathway to U.S. citizenship for people in the country illegally, but a majority also think improving border security should be a main priority for the government.
...

When you consider the runaway inflation since Biden took over, there is good reason to support Trump.  Trump is also better at dealing with crime.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t

Bin Laden's concern about Zarqawi's remains

James Robbins: ... Bin Laden suggests that President Bush should allow Zarqawi’s body to be returned to his family in Jordan, but this is a matter that is up to the Jordanian government, which so far has not shown much interest in facilitating a homecoming. Bin Laden mocks King Abdullah II, calling him a Coalition minion, and asking “w hat scares you about Abu Musab after he’s dead? You know that his funeral, if allowed to happen, would be a huge funeral showing the extent of sympathy with the mujahedin.” A large crowd would definitely turn out, though most people would be on hand to demonstrate their anger and disgust. Last November’s hotel bombings in Amman , masterminded by Zarqawi, are still fresh in people’s memory, and mentioning them to Jordanians has the same visceral impact as memory of the 9/11 attacks does here. Jordan has adopted a zero-tolerance policy towards those who choose to mourn the country’s least favorite son, and four opposition members of parliament who paid con
