When a political campaign is falling apart so badly that even British media is taking notice, it’s time to worry—and that’s exactly where the Harris campaign finds itself. As the world watches America prepare to elect its leader, it’s clear that the implications of a potential Kamala Harris presidency have left allies scratching their heads and potential foes giggling with glee. The idea of a Harris administration has left even the most optimistic among the Democrats feeling queasy.
This week’s embarrassing developments for Harris included a slew of plummeting polls, a dismal performance at a CNN town hall, and Donald Trump stealing her thunder with the coveted Joe Rogan endorsement. Harris now finds herself lagging behind Trump in key battleground states like Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. The anguish within her campaign is palpable, with prominent Democratic lawmakers and mainstream media finally admitting what has been evident to many for weeks—the campaign is stumbling just as the finish line comes into view.
One strategist lamented the state of the campaign, suggesting that while it’s still theoretically close, there’s absolutely no momentum in their favor. The truth hurts, particularly when no one on their side wants to face the stark reality. A sigh of collective defeat is settling in amongst those who had hopes of rising stars in the Democratic Party. If a Democratic strategist is highlighting the campaign’s woes, then one has to wonder what the party faithful are really thinking behind the scenes.
Harris Campaign Panic: Even the British Can Smell It https://t.co/oasKu7m74X

The Harris situation is reminiscent of a comedy of errors. The Democrats, in their infinite wisdom, took a giant leap of faith by moving from the utterly inept Joe Biden to Kamala Harris, who has perfected the art of saying nothing of substance. With the unenviable task of selecting Tim Walz as her running mate—the man who can’t even manage to load a shotgun—Harris seems destined to lead a lackluster ticket that attracts more chuckles than cheers. The reality is this campaign is a disaster of their own making, and the voters are not impressed.
Meanwhile, the Trump campaign is firing on all cylinders. After his recent rally in Traverse City, he decided to stay overnight in Detroit to capitalize on the momentum, demonstrating a determination that Harris and her team appear to lack. The rally drew an enthusiastic crowd and showcased an energy that is conspicuously absent from the Democrats’ camp. As the fat lady prepares to take the stage, signs point toward a GOP resurgence that has both allies and enemies beginning to adjust to the idea of Trump reclaiming his seat at the Resolute Desk. It’s time to brace for the political earthquake set to rock Washington come January.
