NextImg:White House dances around Biden campaign shake-up as poll numbers drag

President Joe Biden is not planning any substantive changes to his reelection campaign despite numerous polls showing him trailing former President Donald Trump in critical swing states and nationally.

Trump, the likely Republican presidential nominee, now leads Biden by 2.6% in the RealClearPolitics polling average, and polls from the New York Times, CNN, NPR, and others show Trump beating Biden in five of six battleground states. Biden still tops Trump in Wisconsin.

'DISAPPOINTED' BIDEN APOLOGIZED AFTER SHOWING SKEPTICISM ABOUT HAMAS DEATH TOLL CLAIMS

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre faced a number of questions on Biden's polls during Monday's press briefing, but she would not say if Biden had planned any strategy or personnel changes within his campaign.

"Well, I can't speak to people's personal decisions," Jean-Pierre told reporters when pressed on a recent report regarding whether White House officials would jump over to Biden's political team before the end of the year. "We don't have anything to announce at this time."

"We're going to continue to do the work that the president set out to do, and we just talked about supply chains. We just talked about the economy," she continued. "We've been talking about the president's leadership globally, especially in the Middle East. That's what we're here to do and focus on. That's what I'm here to do to focus on. I just can't speak to people's decisions."

Following pressure from Democratic lawmakers and national officials, Biden recently decreased his push of "Bidenomics," the summation of his economic policies, as the core thrust of his reelection pitch to voters. Instead, the president has sought to focus more on drawing differences between himself and Trump, as he did in 2020.
