Brit Hume says former President Trump is 'beatable', VP Harris 'has assets' in 2024 presidential bid.

I don’t think you understand the numbers.
It took 4.5% nationally (polling said 7.5) as a Biden lead to win battlegrounds by a sum total of 30-40K votes spread across 6 states.
The issue is Calif and NY. They define the national numbers. A Kamila lead over the next two weeks will reflect Calif and NY, and keep in mind Biden already has a poll or two of 1-2% lead.
The issue . . . is Calif and NY. They are what force a 4.5% national lead to move the battlegrounds.
She’s down 2% on average and has to get to +6%. That’s not happening next week. Independents are not going to be moved by abortion. All minds are already made up on that.
She will have to do massive border closures and deportations to undo the 15ish% improvement Trump is seeing in Hispanic numbers. And . . . she’s not black. Black male Independents won’t be affected.
I do expect the media to trumpet a poll with her in the lead, but Biden already had one or two of those. She needs 4.5%, and polling was 7.5%. It’s a very long way to go.
I think most of this whole escapade was the donors had not just cut off Biden. They cut off the down ballot. They certainly didn’t decide Kamila was going to fix all the WH campaign problems.

Joe Biden 2.0 may fail the field tests. Dems really have painted themselves into a corner. They might be better off going with someone totally new.
Nothing wrong with what Brit said.
Let’s not be snowflakes
The Democrats would never accept Romney as VP. He would have to toe a lot of left wing lines, and more importantly, somehow persuade them he has any clout anymore with the electorate.
No evidence of that at all.
Wrong. This is a state by state race now. A good VP choice will suddenly open up the individual battleground states. No one is looking at national polls right now.
She is half-black just like Obama. Her father was Jamaican. Jamaicans are black (well 92% of them) and from photographs he is certainly black.
Greta Van Face-lift?

Yeah, cause that worked so well for Hillary
Well.. he is right, Heels Up Harris does have assets and talents.. but is she really going to be able to go down on her knees for every voter in Pennslyvania?
LMAO
The national polls define the battlegrounds.
4.5% was the national numbers and it took that, given Calif and NY at +25, to move battlegrounds to dead even.
She can’t get to dead even without 7.5% polling nationally. Because the battlegrounds are part of the national polling.
The biggest litmus surprise is Nevada. How did that happen there? Answer: Hispanics. She’s not recapturing them. And she’s not black. She won’t be capturing black male Independents.
Frankly, I am surprised she is taking the nomination. Nominees who are not incumbents and lose nearly never get another chance. She’s starting out behind. This is not the year for her to try and lose her chance forever.
Unlike Obama who was descended from slave owners, she could claim she was descended from slaves. ;-P
She has probably already done that with the big dimrat donors.
Happy endings for everyone.
We see you.
I was just saying last week, “Brit Hume said it’s not over yet” from the clearing in the forest, twisting around on his sumps, both legs hang recently been amputated, blood spurting out from where his arms had been only minutes earlier
He’ll bite MAGA to death.
Hume is a hopeless unreachable Never Trumper. Of course Trump can still lose but if Trump wins Britt will head to the crying room at FNC.
Klink gave him the look of death while he said "NEVER!" and the next day the WH outted Britt's son. (It pays to have 1800 FBI files.)
Shortly after that, he committed suicide, and Britt knew he better toe the line or else.
Brit wants to still be invited to Beltway cocktail affairs.
“ He has to say this, just like the rest of the media.”
They still pretend Trump needs them. He does not. He never did.
They covered the post assassination attempt because their cameras were there. They weren’t covering the rally. Trump doesn’t need them to They’re there because they need him.
