Kamala Harris’s campaign is skyrocketing, turning enthusiastic rally crowds into an army of volunteers in crucial swing states. Meanwhile, Donald Trump’s campaign is struggling, reportedly sending him into a frustrated tailspin. His recent incoherent comments on Harris’s racial identity at the National Association of Black Journalists have caught attention and increased scrutiny on his ability to handle pressure.
Kadia Goa, a politics reporter, points out Trump’s new attack line on Harris’s race echoes his 2016 strategies. Former Senator Claire McCaskill notes Trump’s usual brand of grievance-driven marketing isn’t clicking this time, largely due to Harris’s rising popularity. Polls show Harris gaining major traction, especially with Black and young voters, making Trump’s grip on these groups slip.
Despite Harris’s current momentum, there’s a call for her campaign to ensure policies are clear and distinct from Biden’s to maintain support. Democrats are cautioned against overwhelming voters with complex explanations. As Trump’s campaign appears to flounder without a strong message beyond tax cuts, Harris’s strategic focus should be on a forward-thinking agenda, strengthening her appeal and leaving Trump’s negatives in the past.
