The media has done all it can do for Kamala Harris. They’re calling it quits.
Because CNN has admitted Trump is about to win and has thrown in the towel.
The “vibes” over on the Left are not good at all. The Kamala Harris campaign aides are reportedly freaking out. The mainstream media talking heads bought out by the Democrats are freaking out. Big Democrat donors are freaking out. Even the House is now favored to remain in GOP control, which could give Donald Trump total control of the White House and a GOP-controlled Congress.
The meltdown has begun, and even CNN is admitting that the numbers just do not look good at all for the Democrats right now. CNN’s data guru Harry Enten has even gone so far as to say that he’s giving fair “warning” to anyone listening that a Trump win looks to be imminent.
In a recent analysis on CNN News Central, senior data reporter Harry Enten highlighted several factors that could indicate a potential victory for former President Donald Trump over Vice President Kamala Harris in the upcoming November election. As the two candidates face off in a competitive race, Trump currently holds a slim lead in six of the top seven battleground states, according to RealClearPolitics averages.
Enten pointed to widespread voter dissatisfaction regarding the direction of the country, coupled with President Joe Biden’s unpopularity and a surge in Republican registration numbers, as critical indicators favoring Trump. “Just 28% of Americans, voters think the country is going in the right direction, is on the right track. And I want to put that into a historical perspective for you. Okay, what’s the average percentage of the public that thinks that the country is on the right track when the incumbent party loses? It’s 25%,” he explained.
“That 25% looks an awful bit like that 28% up there. It doesn’t look anything, anything like this 42% average when the incumbent party won doesn’t look anything like this 28%.”
He emphasized that this low percentage of Americans believing the country is on the right track aligns more closely with historical patterns observed when the incumbent party loses elections.
“In fact, I went back through history, there isn’t a single time in which 28% of the American public thinks the country is going on the right track in which the incumbent party actually won,” he stated. “They always lose when just 28% of the country believes that the country is on the right track.”
Enten further noted Biden’s low approval ratings as another historical indicator that could spell trouble for Harris. He pointed out that previous presidents with net negative approval ratings have not seen their party succeed in subsequent elections.
“Now, we don’t know if Kamala Harris is going to succeed Joe Biden, but we know back in 2008, George W. Bush’s approval rating was down in the 20’s. Did a Republican succeed George W. Bush? No. How ’bout in 1968? Lyndon Baines Johnson, his net approval rating was negative. Did a Democrat succeed Lyndon Baines Johnson? No,” he said, illustrating his point with historical examples.
He continued by highlighting the trend with Harry S. Truman in 1952, where a Republican succeeded a Democrat amidst low approval ratings. “So the bottom line is for Kamala Harris to win, she’d have to break history, be a Democrat to succeed Joe Biden when Biden’s approval rating is way underwater at this point,” Enten concluded.
Moreover, Enten mentioned the increasing Republican registration in key battleground states such as Arizona, Nevada, North Carolina, and Pennsylvania. “So Republicans are putting more Republicans in the electorate; the Democratic number versus the Republican number has shrunk. And so the bottom line is if Republicans win, come next week, Donald Trump wins comes next week, the signs all along will have been obvious,” he asserted.
“We would look at the right direction being very low, Joe Biden’s approval rating being very low and Republicans really registering numbers. You can’t say you weren’t warned.”
As the election approaches, these factors are shaping the narrative of a potentially challenging landscape for Harris and the Democrats. Very few metrics are going their way right now with no time left to really change course. In fact, it’s so bad for Kamala Harris that the possibility of Trump outright winning the popular vote is opening up.
There is virtually no path to victory for Kamala Harris should she lose the overall popular vote given that the current electoral college map is already in favor with Donald Trump and company.
