Moreover, citing confidential polls, they further contended that blue-leaning states like Virginia and Minnesota are still within Trump's grasp in November.

Notably, the former president is spending most of his time in a New York courtroom, coinciding with the surge in campaign donations. He continues to be there four days a week while on his hush-money trial.
