Philip Elliott, Washington correspondent for Time and author of Time’s newsletter, D.C. Brief, breaks down the status of national politics as we sit just less than a year away from the 2024 Presidential Election.
Although former President Donald Trump is leading in the early polls for the GOP nomination, Elliott reminds us that the first Republican primary in Iowa is always unpredictable.
He also says that GOP candidate Nikki Haley is doing well with traditional Republicans and has amassed noteworthy support and financial backing for the Iowa, New Hampshire, and South Carolina primaries.
Elliott also says that the 2024 is volatile with the two main candidates, Trump and President Joe Biden, both being unpopular with large segments of voters.
If one adds potential Independent candidates like Liz Cheney and Robert Kennedy Jr. to the mix, the election picture becomes even more murky, he says.
Elliott also talks about the political quagmire of issues such as funding for Israel, the unexpected support of Palestinians by many Americans, and the need for continued funding of the Ukraine war.
He points to the precarious status of House Speaker Mike Johnson and the disarray among House Republicans.
Finally, Elliott expresses his concerns about the ratcheting up of violent rhetoric and the impact that might have on potential violence in America.
