Democrats plagued by ‘existential dread’ as Trump keeps race on razor’s edge

By Naomi Lim, Mabinty Quarshie and Cami Mondeaux | Washington Examiner Democratic euphoria over Vice President Kamala Harris has been replaced by panic as former President Donald Trump makes marginal gains in a close presidential race. Democrats find themselves in much better place than two months ago, when President Joe Biden trailed Trump across the battleground map. Harris has pulled within the margin of error from Pennsylvania to Wisconsin since taking over the ticket. Yet her perceived inability to connect with traditionally Democratic voters has cast a pall over the polls showing a toss-up race. Harris is underperforming Biden with black voters by 10 points, according to a recent survey from the New York Times and Siena College, while blue-colla...

Harris ‘flatlining’ in polls while Trump rises

By Tristan Justice | The Hill Republican strategist Karl Rove said Vice President Harris is “flatlining” in the polls while her Republican competitor, former President Trump, is rising. “What we’ve seen is Harris sort of flatlining and mostly declining, and Donald Trump modestly rising. And as a result, we’re seeing a 50-50 election; coin toss,” Rove, a Fox News contributor, said on the network Monday. Harris was riding high on momentum just weeks ago.

Trump served more McDonald’s french fries in 15 minutes than Harris probably ever has

By Tristan Justice | The Federalist Donald Trump served French fries at a Pennsylvania McDonald’s on Sunday after Kamala Harris allegedly lied about her job there as a cook. Former President Donald Trump put on the apron of the golden arches Sunday to serve French fries at a McDonald’s in Feasterville, Pennsylvania. “I’ve now worked for 15 minutes more than Kamala,” Trump said from the drive-thru window. The billionaire real estate mogul manned the fast food shift after the Washington Free Beacon reported in August the Democrat presidential nominee likely fabricated her experience as a McDonald’s fry cook.

CBS News breaks its silence over editing allegations in ’60 Minutes’ interview with Harris

By Yael Halon  | Fox News CBS News pushed back against former President Trump's claim that "60 Minutes" deceitfully edited its interview with Vice President Kamala Harris, dismissing the allegation as "false" in a statement released Sunday. After weeks of staying mum despite mounting backlash over the interview, CBS published a statement Sunday evening addressing the outrage that ensued after airing two different answers to the same question in the "60 Minutes" interview earlier this month with the Democratic nominee. "Former President Donald Trump is accusing 60 Minutes of deceitful editing of our Oct. 7 interview with Vice President Kamala Harris. That is false," the statement began.

CVS workers strike at 7 California locations seeking better pay, health care

By Brooke Stephenson | Fox Business Workers at seven CVS pharmacies in Southern California are now on strike, as they demand better pay and health care and to call out what they describe as the company engaging in bad-faith contract bargaining. The strike began Friday and continued through the weekend, affecting four stores in Los Angeles and three others in Orange County. Striking workers outside a Los Angeles location told customers on Saturday not to cross the picket lines, according to The Associated Press. Melissa Acosta, a pharmacy technician who is on the contract bargaining committee, claimed the company was "intimidating workers, observing them, getting in the way of them speaking to union representatives," the outlet reported. Despite the strike, the affected CVS...

Turning Point Action’s ‘moneyball’ ballot-chasing success ‘most unreported, untold Story’ of 2024

By Bradley Jaye | Breitbart Ballot chasing has long propped up weak Democrat candidates, but Republicans have adopted and perfected the strategy in 2024 and its paying immediate dividends for former President Donald Trump, Turning Point Action’s Tyler Bowyer told Breitbart News Saturday  host Matt Boyle. Bowyer, the former Arizona Republican National Committeeman who’s leading the Turning Point Action ballot chasing operations, said the biggest difference between the 2020 and 2024 elections is Republicans’ laser focus in 2024 on turning out low propensity voters who may not have cast a ballot in 2016 or 2020 – an area where Democrats have far outworked Republicans in the past. “Actually, right now we’re outpacing the Democrats,” Bowyer told Boyle. “It looks like – the data comes b...

Aurora Showdown: Anti-Establishment Fire Ignites Voter Frenzy

By MIG Reports Key Takeaways: Aurora, Colorado, experienced a surge in political enthusiasm from both Trump and Harris supporters, driving high levels of voter engagement. Pro-Trump supporters view him as a necessary disruptor of a corrupt system, while Harris supporters see their vote as a defense against authoritarianism. Both sides share a deep anti-establishment sentiment, reflecting widespread disillusionment with traditional political and media institutions.  Between Oct. 9-16, Aurora, Colorado, became a hotspot for intense political activity and discussion following Trump’s rally in the city. Residents are grappling with a whirlwind of emotions—anxiety, enthusiasm, and distrust—all of which are influencing their civic engagement and voting propensity. READ THE FU...

If Kamala Harris wins

By Roger Kimball | Americanmind.org Sometimes “What if?” questions are merely counterfactual academic exercises. Sometimes, however, they are existential conundrums. The question, “What if Kamala Harris wins the 2024 presidential election?” belongs firmly in the latter category. As I have noted elsewhere, I believe Donald Trump will not only win, but win resoundingly. All the same, the huge influx of illegal immigrants, strategically managed by Biden and Harris to be maximally advantageous, combined with the disastrous state of our voter rolls, might mean even if Trump wins, he doesn’t end up in the Oval Office. So: what if? Imagine you are a mini-Rip Van Winkle. You sink into a deep slumber on November 4 and do not awaken until, say, December 2026. You won’t have missed the original...

Davidson: Kamala Harris is priming Democrats for violent resistance if Trump wins

By John Daniel Davidson | Commentary, The Federalist By now it’s commonplace to note that Kamala Harris often seems out of her depth, like she’s unsure what to say about policy, or how to explain her past positions, or why she hasn’t already done the things she’s promised to do if she’s elected given that she’s the current vice president. But on one particular subject she’s been consistent and forceful throughout her campaign. She’s adamant that Donald Trump will destroy America if he’s reelected. And not “destroy” in the sense of enact bad policies, but that he’ll round people up with the military and put them in camps. She talks about this all the time now. At one point during her Wednesday evening interview with Bret Baier on Fox News, she became visibly upset after Baier playe...

Young: Kamala Harris continues to underperform in critical states

By J.T. Young, Commentary | Commentary, The Hill Kamala Harris is continuing to underperform across the polling spectrum.   Pick any average from the multitude of polling views — two-way, multicandidate, battleground states, and even individual battleground states — and Harris is running consistently below where Joe Biden was in 2020 and Hillary Clinton in 2016.   So it’s no surprise Democrats are growing nervous.
