With just two months until Election Day, Kamala Harris and Donald Trump enter the final stretch with a nonsignificant polling split. But despite the tiny gap, the results show a shifting back towards the former president after Harris entered the race at the end of July. Just two days until the presidential nominees' first debate, a New York Times/Siena College poll puts Trump 1 percent ahead of the vice president – 48 percent to 47 percent – within the survey's 3-point margin of error. The latest was conducted September 3-6 and is largely unchanged from the same national survey of likely voters taken in late July after President Joe Biden ended

Or, as Nate Cohn gently tells his anxious Upper West Side readers this morning "New Poll Suggests Harris’s Support Has Stalled After a Euphoric August Almost 30 percent of voters said they needed to learn more about her." It's the Republican campaign's job to fill those needs.

"...30 percent of voters need to know more about her". Oh please. The Who's Tommy was more aware than these people. And, as you will recall the "pinball wizard" was deaf, dumb and blind.

It's not # 4. That's just the percent they will have to lie about when they try to steal again. They know they'd never get away with 41 million votes, found overnight and all for Biden again. So just manufacturing an extra percent or two will be easy.

If the NYT polls say Trump is ahead by One Percent, that means he's probably ahead by 5 Percent! I don't believe their Poll or any of the other Democrat Polls!

Back in 2022 we were celebrating a Red Tsunami. Of course I'm voting for President Trump. But Giggles has lots of support. It's based on her race, gender, TDS, and a desire for "change." I hope PT will stick with the economy, the border, and street crime. Most people want to know about the future and not what happened in the past.

GAWD, this is such weak sauce, even out of Harris. But what did I expect, right? And she's playing to a friendly audience - GO FIGURE - when she called in to be "interviewed" on The Rickey Smiley Morning Show, a top-rated podcast. The guy has a lot of X followers - over a million - and while I don't know anything about him, he does seem to have quite a substantial listener base and has declared himself to be a huge Kamala fan. All things considered, that's just the friendly, cozy, and unthreatening environment that might persuade our gunshy Vice President to peep her head

ABC News program World News Tonight has shown an overall positive spin on its reporting of Vice President Kamala Harris, versus its overall negative reporting on former President Donald Trump, according to a recent report. A report from the Media Research Center’s (MRC) NewsBusters found that an analysis of “100 campaign stories” aired on World News Tonight, hosted by David Muir, found “25 clearly positive statements” made about Harris from “reporters, anchors, voters or other non-partisan sources,” which represented a 100 percent positive spin on the outlets reporting for Harris. The 100 campaign stories that MRC reviewed stemmed from July 21, when Harris entered the 2024 presidential race, to September 6.

Former New York governor Andrew Cuomo personally edited a government report that undercounted the Covid deaths that resulted from his March 2020 directive forcing nursing homes to admit coronavirus-positive patients, a congressional panel concluded. The New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) issued a report in July 2020 faulting nursing homes for the spread of coronavirus in their facilities at the direction of Cuomo administration officials who “heavily edited” the document, the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus pandemic said in a memo released Monday.

Federal prosecutors announced charges Monday against two people associated with ‘Terrorgram,’ an online network of white supremacists that encouraged attacks on Black, gay and immigrant targets, as well as assassinations of high-ranking American officials. Authorities said Dallas Erin Humber and Matthew Robert Allison promoted “the collapse of government and the rise of a white ethno-state” and had a global reach, inspiring attacks in Turkey and Slovakia as well as in the U.S. They used Telegram, a messaging app, to spread “target” lists, complete with addresses, and they disseminated how-to videos and manuals for making letter bombs and “dirty bombs” that mixed conventional explosives with radioactive material, according to the federal indictment.
Kamala Harris Is Slip Slidin' Away 8 replies

You know, the nearer her destination, the more Kamala Harris is slip slidin' away. On the eve of the one, and probably only, debate between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump, the polling continues to show the air is leaking out of the tires of her campaign. And unless the debate proves to to be a gamechanger for her, it appears the history books will record that the country reached peak Kamala about 10 days ago, and the waters continued receding all the way to November. Real Clear Politics, in their average of averages between Trump and Harris, showed the Vice President with her biggest

After nearly two months of being in the presidential race, Kamala Harris finally got around to putting some "policies" on her website, and they are the perfect encapsulation of why she's such an awful candidate. Harris has yet to give a press conference or do a solo interview, instead relying on her aides posing as anonymous sources in the press to present her positions to the public. Naturally, the news media has gone along with that. It was always a matter of time before she'd have to put something on paper, though. Perhaps the latest Times/Sienna poll showing her losing straight up

Vice President Kamala Harris on Monday unveiled a slate of policy proposals on her campaign website, including plans to “restore and protect reproductive freedoms” and to call for a federal ban on corporate price gouging on food and groceries. Less than two weeks ago, NR noted the lack of an issues or policy section on the Harris-Walz campaign website as an indication that the campaign was running behind. By late August in the 2008 campaign, Obama had released a 33-page “Blueprint for Change” outlining his plan for America. His campaign website featured policy proposals on 23 different topics

A month ago, Kamala Harris was flying high, enjoying a surge of support in the aftermath of Joe Biden being forced out of the presidential race. The race didn't quite feel over at that time, but it certainly wasn't the best time for the Trump campaign. That's all changed with the release of several new polls showing the former president gaining ground and even leading. As RedState reported, the latest Times/Sienna poll, which election guru Nate Silver has rated as the best pollster in the country, showed Donald Trump with a one-point lead against Harris. That's significant given the Republican advantage in the electoral college.

He spoke with the magazine about several calls he received after the shooting, including ones from Zuckerberg and Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos. “You know, I got so many nice calls from people I really don’t know. Jeff Bezos called. He said, ‘It is the most incredible thing I’ve ever watched.’ And he appreciated what I did, in the sense of getting up and letting people know,” he said.

The Kamala Harris campaign has been actively courting some of the biggest Republican retreads they can find to earn their endorsement.

"I feel that Kamala Harris and Tim Walz embody a group of people that will help make this country better. That will take us forward. That's really what matters at the end of the day," he said.

Along with satire, parody, in my not-so-humble opinion, is one of the smartest forms of humor. Parody song-maker Brian Coyne, who recently created a parody video that absolutely blisters Kamala Harris and her never-ending lies, said the Democrat presidential nominee has become “the poster child for flip-flopping.”Kamala Harris has become the poster child for flip-flopping on everything from her ethnicity to policy. She steals policy ideas form her opponent, Donald Trump, while having almost no policies of her own. No wonder she avoids interviews like the plague!
