Thomas Gift, the head of the Centre on U.S. Politics at University College London, warned that a deepening immigration crisis would pose a serious challenge for the Biden administration.

Fair or unfair, anything that highlights the immigration crisis is a net negative for Biden at the moment, Thomas Gift, the head of the Centre on U.S. Politics at University College London, via 'Newsweek'.

To the extent that the tragedy in Haiti puts a new refugee story in the headlines, it will only make the immigration issue more salient for American voters.

At the same time, Biden's hands will no doubt be tied by progressive groups who will insist that the White House not repatriate refugees back to Haiti given the huge political instability in the country, Thomas Gift, the head of the Centre on U.S. Politics at University College London, via 'Newsweek'.

According to a Monmouth University survey, 84% of voters in the U.S. consider illegal immigration a "serious" or "very serious" issue.

In 2021, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis declared a state of emergency after hundreds of migrants from Haiti and Cuba arrived by boat.

An estimated 146,000 Haitian migrants were encountered at the U.S. border between October 2020 and May 2023

Biden Attacks Trump Supporters, Claims They're the Kind of People ‘You'd Like to Smack in the Ass’

During a recent campaign event in Scranton, Pennsylvania, President Joe Biden launched a sharp attack on supporters of Republican nominee Donald Trump, characterising them as the kind of individuals "you'd like to smack in the ass." His remarks came as he criticised Trump’s proposed tax cuts for high earners, framing them as harmful to working-class Americans. Biden's comments aimed to highlight what he perceives as the detrimental effects of Trump’s policies, which he argues primarily benefit the wealthy. This outburst, reflecting Biden's escalating rhetoric against Trump and his supporters, underscores the growing tensions as the November 5 election approaches. The President's comments sparked discussions about the deepening divide in American politics, with both candidates intensifying their messaging in the lead-up to the election. #BidenVsTrump #TrumpSupporters #Election2024 #PoliticalRhetoric #ScrantonSpeech #TaxCuts #WorkingClass #DivisivePolitics #Biden2024 #CampaignTrail #AmericanPolitics #VoterResponse #Unity #Democrats #Republicans
