The Rise of a First Woman President: Trump’s Party Nominated by the New Mexico Electoral Commission (Extended Abstract)
The president of Mexico is going to be a woman. The two leading candidates in this race are women: Claudia Sheinbaum, the ruling party’s candidate, and opposition candidate XĂłchitl Gálvez. The people on the streets are most skeptical of the possibility of history being made, according to Eyder. Some people think that politicians are corrupt regardless of their gender. A 92-year old feminist named Elena Poniatowska credits hard work and feminism for the rise of a first woman president in Mexico.
This is Trump’s party. Full stop. He’s going to be nominated by the party. It will take place, incredibly, just days after he’s scheduled to be sentenced in this case (July 11).
According to legal experts, it’s unlikely that Trump will face incarceration if he is charged with the charges.
A jury of his peers in New York found him guilty on 34 counts of creating false business records to influence the election.

The Campaign of Donald J. Biden in the Light of the New York State Supreme Court Appeals Against the Felony Conviction of Donald Trump
The campaigns will be trying hard to turn out every last voter they think should vote for them to show up — and Trump’s conviction is likely to be a very large piece of the campaign going forward.
The attempts started fast and furious. Both campaigns immediately made appeals for donations and issued statements after the verdict was denounced by Trump and his surrogates.
It makes sense in a very important respect that Biden, up until the verdict, did not hammer Trump on his legal problems. He is president, and he didn’t want to show any hint of impropriety and has not wanted to appear, in any way, to be influencing the Justice Department’s federal investigations of Trump or and state prosecutors.
Most voters will not be swayed, according to the latest NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist poll. This could be a reset moment for the campaign because it showed that some, including younger voters, might be moved at the margins.
In American History, it’s a historic moment. Many Americans are likely going to be just tuning in now to learn about the conviction. The bottom line is: The last thing Trump wanted was for someone to write about him as a convicted felon. That is what will be attached to him when voters decide, unless an overturn is made before the election.
The line Biden has to contend with is between being a candidate and a president. The White House counsel’s office essentially said no comment, but Biden’s campaign has weighed in, noting that the New York case shows “no one is above the law.”
Paul Ryan isn’t going to stay in the White House: at the ballot box. The only way to keep Donald Trump out of the Oval Office
Trump has full control over the RNC. He is now in a better position with the Republican Party because of the loyalists he has installed in state parties across the country.
That is not happening. Speaker of the House Paul Ryan is one of the Republicans who are in agreement with Trump.
“There is still only one way to keep Donald Trump out of the Oval Office: at the ballot box,” Michael Tyler, a Biden campaign spokesman, said in a statement.
This takes place in an election year in which the former President is trying to return to the White House, and it will have political consequences.
