Harris reclaims three swing states, Trump angered – News

Kamala Harris's beaming smile on Donald Trump's grim face. There can be no further distance between the two White House hopefuls at this stage of the race, and not just because of their agendas. While the vice president continues to dominate the polls, the businessman is experiencing the most difficult moment of his campaign and is shocked by his rival's success.

As the Democratic campaign regains momentum, Joe Biden, the No. 2 running mate, is gaining ground on his Republican opponent. He will even lead in three swing states — Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Michigan — after Biden and Trump were neck-and-neck for a year, according to a New York Times/Siena College poll.

It's a four-point advantage, in line with the results of recent days, but it's particularly significant given the role these three states have historically played in the victories or defeats of candidates. Voters also see Harris as “smarter” and “a better person” to lead the United States than Donald, whose “disrespectful attitude” they dislike.

Of course, it is too early to tell whether the vice president’s positive streak will continue until November 5 and translate into a win or whether it is simply a result of the enthusiasm prevailing at that moment, especially since many polls were conducted after the election. Tim Walz’s nomination and candidates traditionally gain points in the days following the announcement of the second man. On the opposite front, the New York Times once again reported on the “worst three weeks” of the Trump campaign. Since Harris entered the field, the businessman was said to have been in a “very bad mood” and “confused” about the strategy to follow to attack her. According to sources close to the former vice president, her tensions were sky high, and she was going to insult her opponent in private by calling her a “bitch.” A crime the campaign denied. “That is not the term President Trump used to describe Kamala, and it is not the language we use,” spokesman Stephen Cheung said. And while he has publicly insisted that he would rather challenge Harris than Biden, people close to the businessman reveal that this is not the case, and that while he was previously heading for an easy victory, he now has to earn it. Moreover, for the first time in his political career, his opponent has received more media coverage than him, defeating him in the so-called “earned media” race, that is, coverage that costs the campaign nothing but brings in votes. And Harris is not the only one who is bothering Trump’s sleep. After a now-infamous outing on “kittens without children,” which angered him and forced him to publicly defend her, the president has also been irritated by his number two, Ohio Senator J.D. Vance, who appreciates the power of cats. Attacks but not specific gaffes. So much so that at a donors’ dinner a few days ago, when someone asked the former president if he was offended by the attacks from Democrats who called him “weird,” he replied: “They say that about Vance, not about me.”
