Biden Insiders Worry He Could Be Walking Right Into a Trap in One State
The glittering prize of Nevada could turn into a nugget of fool’s gold for President Joe Biden, according to a new report that says insiders are worried about a state that, on paper, looks like a win.
Biden had already won the state by two points in 2020. Additionally, both U.S. senators are Democrats. But according to Axios, the political and economic tides appear to be shifting in favor of former President Donald Trump, who lost the state by a little more than two points to Hillary Clinton in 2016.
Nevada suffers from a 5.3 percent unemployment rate, the nation’s highest, with third-in-the-nation gas prices at $4.23 per gallon and home prices that have climbed six times faster than wages since 2011.
