MNI POLITICAL RISK - Biden And Trump Agree To Debate

Daily roundup of news from the US.

Political Market NewsPolitical Risk

Executive Summary:

  • President Biden and former President Donald Trump yesterday agreed to hold two presidential debates, bucking a prevailing view that the White House would be unlikely to agree to any public debates. By agreeing to debate, the White House may have signalled concerns over Biden’s lukewarm polling numbers and a resurgent Trump campaign.
  • House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) is expected to hold a vote today on a Republican bill which criticises the Biden administration’s decision to withhold some heavy ordinance transfers to Israel. The vote will put at least two-dozen Democrats facing competitive races in a challenging position.
  • President Biden said on yesterday’s CPI report that "prices are still too high," and renewed a pledge to build two million new homes to lower housing costs.
  • A bipartisan group of lawmakers is preparing to introduce a Congressional Review Act to overturn the Biden administration’s clean vehicle tax credit - pitting Biden's agenda against the domestic political concerns of vulnerable Democrat lawmakers.
  • Poll of the Day: Voters trust Trump more than Biden on the economy and immigration - the two central issues of the campaign.
