It Looks Like the DNC Is Backfiring on Kamala Harris
PJ Media ^ | 08/21/2024 | Matt Margolis

When Kamala Harris became the presumptive nominee of the Democratic Party, it undoubtedly caused a jolt of enthusiasm for her party, which had been looking at a landslide defeat with Joe Biden on top of the ticket. She took the lead in the polls as well as in the political markets.

Harris had as much as a seven-point lead in Polymarket in the days leading up to the Democratic National Convention. Between the wall-to-wall glowing coverage from the media and the convention coverage, Harris would maintain that lead, if not expand on it.

However, the lead she had before the convention is gone. It's not only been wiped up, but as of the morning of the third day of the convention, Donald Trump has also regained the lead. By the second day of the convention, Trump had a one-point lead. As of this writing, he has taken a five-point Polymarket lead over Harris.

Harris had a 7-point lead in @Polymarket last week.

Rich Baris, the director of Big Data Poll, found this to be an extraordinary shift, considering the timing.

Why are Donald Trump's odds of winning the presidential election getting better during the DNC?

That's so weird.— Rich Baris The People's Pundit (@Peoples_Pundit) August 20, 2024

It is an absolutely fair question to ask why this is happening during the week of Kamala's convention. A big part of it is that last week, Kamala unveiled her key economic agenda, and it was nothing short of a disaster, drawing criticism from both sides of the political spectrum.

Well, I imagine Trump is hammering her with ads in swing states and that price control on food deal was such a dumb misstep.

Kamala Harris is DONE.

FINITO

KAPUTZ

Harris resigns her campaign on Friday morning, and Big Mike (Moosehell) is in by Friday at Midnight.

( The pressure is on right now after Moosehell’s speech last night.)

Do you really think Michelle would be brave enough to stand between Hillary and the position she covets above everything else?

I am not cocky........the fact is that the Dems do not know whether their asses are bored or punched.

All we need to do is get out the vote and do as much ballot harvesting as possible in Pennsylvania.

GAME, SET and MATCH

Pennsylvania is where its at...a must win for the Donald.

It’s not weird at all. Kamala is experiencing “the Hillary effect”: the more people see of her, the less they like her.

Do they give electoral college totals? With just the red and pink states, Trump doesn’t have the needed 270 votes. He could make it with the red, pink and tan states.

Well, she already stole “no tax on tips” from Trump.

Maybe she’ll just steal the rest of Trump’s platform.

AND, because most of the actual VOTERS didn’t even vote for her. Their masters are doing the voting for them and they’re not liking it, I guess.

Camilla is like Cankles... her numbers go up when she stays out of sight, and plummet when she doesn’t.

“Her most contentious proposal, a federal ban on ‘price-gouging’,”

Except she said, “price GAGE-ing”. She doesn’t even know the lingo of basic economics.

Yes he did.

And he said that, as POTUS, he was ‘Commander AND Chief”.

yes... but... he who sits in the heavens LOL’s... puts them in a state of constant derision.

they have been rejected, at least by God... to lead this nation.

Lord God turn our hearts and we SHALL be turned...
means unless he changes hearts by his sovereign will and power like he did with Israel via Elijah and the slaughter of several hundred false prophets of Ba al... where fire fell from heaven... we are not yet turned.
