They knew it was coming. After the latest New York Times/Siena College poll showed Donald Trump beating Kamala Harris, the proceeds started flowing like fine wine.
RedState reported Sunday that Trump is one percentage point ahead of Harris in the up-to-date poll, 48 percent to 47 percent. Harris’ approval rating has also dropped to 46 percent, significantly closer to where it was before she ran for the Democratic Party’s presidential nomination.

The highest-rated pollster in the country and a immense sample size. Luckily for Harris, the debate is this week and none of this will matter if she has a good night.https://t.co/X77LYVdtVq

The reactions came quick and furious, ranging from outright terror to apologies disguised as false intellectualism. Here was Aaron Rupar, one of the main disseminators of disinformation on the left, freaking out and insulting Americans.
Whether he ultimately receives 48 or 45 percent of the vote, Trump’s support is evidence of a deeply ill society. https://t.co/ottWqE7m91

Do Democrats ever stop and think if they’re on the wrong side? I’m not saying Donald Trump is perfect. Quite the opposite, and I don’t think there are many Republicans left who would disagree. But when you start calling society “sick” because some people dare to vote differently than you, then maybe you’re the problem.
Then there was podcast brother Jon Favreau, who said Trump’s lead was because “voters are just stupid and ill-informed.”
Kamala’s plans:
1) A tax credit of $6,000 for the first year of a child’s life2) Insulin is capped at $35 for everyone, and drug copayments are capped at $2,000 per year
3) 3 million up-to-date homes and a $25,000 tax credit for first-time buyers
4) Tax cut for 100 million middle-class families

Some voters’ desire to know more about Kamala Harris has more to do with her constant avoidance of arduous questions than with people being completely blind to who she is. She’s been vice president for four years and ran for president in 2019 (she didn’t make it through 2020). It’s not a substantial secret where she stands, even if she’s doing her best to change her entire political story via anonymous aides.
Even Favreau’s list of plans is comical, considering Donald Trump was the first to propose three of them. The former president was already pushing for an enhance in the child tax credit before Kamala entered the race. He also capped the cost of insulin at $35. while he was president. And finally, he wants to extend the Trump tax cuts, which Harris opposes. As for building “three million new homes,” that’s such an irrelevant, silly promise. The federal government doesn’t build homes, and a gift to “first-time buyers” would only drive up market prices. You can’t game the system that way.
However, some other Democrats have also begun the acceptance phase.
Two epic mistakes from Harris’ team since she got the slot:
– Do not select Shapiro
– do not make a deal with RFKThese could well have made the difference.

She’s right. Not picking Josh Shapiro was a substantial mistake. Had she done so, the popular Pennsylvania governor would likely have a Democratic party in his state. Instead, Harris tried to appease the radical anti-Semites in Dearborn, and that has jeopardized her chances of winning. If the Democratic candidate does end up losing, that will have been the catalyst.
In low, you cannot build a campaign on “vibes” alone. Harris has run out of steam because there is nothing hidden beneath the facade of “joy”. This is a person who Despite it doesn’t even have a policy platform on her website. She’s an empty shell, and voters are just realizing it. Can she turn things around? Sure, and the debate will be significant, but the plan to give her an uncomplicated victory has officially failed.
