Kamala’s Campaign Cracks Wide Open

October 14, 2024

The more Americans see of Kamala Harris and Tim Walz, the more they don't like them — but that's not stopping them from humiliating themselves on a daily basis.

 

It hasn't been pretty. Both Harris and Walz are increasingly embattled by long-simmering struggles that are upending their candidacy.

 

President Trump has the momentum:

And those are just some of the headlines Americans are reading each day.

 

While Kamala cracks under the pressure of running as a nominee who received zero actual votes, President Trump is everywhere making his pitch directly to Americans — they're better off with Trump.
