"Rising Concerns Over Third-Party Influence in US Politics"

Mark Penn, a centrist pollster and strategist for the Clintons, has been producing polls indicating a demand for a third-party option, infuriating Democrats who are spending money to discredit him and his wife's organization, No Labels. Penn believes that 60% of voters would consider a moderate independent candidate, and he sees an opportunity for a third party to address issues like national unity and immigration. He clarifies that he has no formal or informal role in No Labels, which his wife runs, and discusses the potential role of Nikki Haley in the 2024 election. Penn also shares his thoughts on the Republican and Democratic races, the strategies of Trump and Biden, and the rising importance of immigration as a top-tier issue.

Biden's Approval Ratings Plummet as Trump Gains Ground.

Former Clinton pollster Mark Penn warns that a new poll showing President Biden with just 36% approval will "send shockwaves" through the White House and Democratic Party. Penn believes that Biden's "rushed" re-election announcement was a mistake, as former President Trump leads Biden by six points and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis leads Biden by five in a new Washington Post/ABC poll. The poll also found that 63% of American adults do not think Biden has the "mental sharpness" it takes to serve effectively as president, and 62% do not think he is in "good enough physical health" to serve either.
