When Joe Biden was last in Iowa, his presidential campaign was on the verge of collapse and he was soundly trounced in the caucuses by a former Indiana mayor nearly 40 years his junior. He returns Friday as the Democratic nominee, believing he's just days away from becoming president-elect.

Biden's trip reflects the growing confidence among Democrats in the closing days of the campaign. Iowa, which Donald Trump won by 9 points in 2016, is among the clutch of GOP-leaning states that Biden is trying to bring back into the Democratic column. He'll also swing through Wisconsin on Friday while his running mate, Kamala Harris, courts voters in Texas, a longtime GOP bastion that Democrats insist is in play this year.

With four days until the election and more than 80 million votes already cast, time is running out for Trump and Biden to change the shape of the race. Biden is leading most national polls and has a narrow advantage in the critical battlegrounds that could decide the race. Biden has held fewer events in a nod to the restrictions in place across the country to prevent the spread of the coronavirus. The virus has killed more than 228,000 people in the United States, and cases are surging across the country, threatening an economic recovery Trump had aimed to champion.

But economists warned that the economy is already weakening again and facing renewed threats as confirmed viral cases surge, hiring has slowed and federal stimulus help has mostly run out. Trump is banking on local news coverage of his rallies to overcome a substantial advertising deficit stemming from a late cash crunch. Biden and his allies are outspending Trump and his backers by a more than 3-1 ratio in Florida -- about $23 million to about $7 million -- in the final push to Election Day, according to data from ad tracking firm Kantar/CMAG.

How much exactly Biden will spend is unclear. His campaign says it is putting a "mid-eight-figure" dollar amount behind over 100 different ads, which means they could be spending as little as $25 million -- but potentially much more.

U.S.-Canada trade issues won't go away under BidenMAAW Law’s Mark Warner on how the results of the U.S. election could change Canada’s trade relationship with the United States IMO, where there is trade there is always room for change / improvement. To expect either Trump OR Biden to bring about meaningful trade change in 1-2 years will be absurdity. Both sides, USA & Canada, need to review, understand & introduce meaningful terms to USMCA. NAFTA So? At least a sociopathe won't be on the other end of the phone. He won't remember what side of border he is, or whats happening unless he has ppl whispering in his ear
