Kamala Harris is watching everything go wrong for her in the final weeks of the race.
She could be making history this year for all the wrong reasons.
And Kamala Harris got one scary prediction from a journalist that left her with a sinking feeling.
Veteran political journalist predicts Donald Trump will make major gains with black voters
One of the biggest questions of the election is whether polling that shows former President Donald Trump will make historic gains with black voters is real.
Veteran journalist Mark Halperin has been one of the most accurate insiders this election cycle.
He broke the story of President Joe Biden dropping out of the race three days before it happened.
Halperin told former Fox News host Tucker Carlson that Trump would break records for black support by a Republican this election during an appearance on The Tucker Carlson Show.
Carlson said that he didn’t know many black men who were Republicans but zero were “liberals.”
“If the anecdotal is even close to true, Trump will break the record among support from black men. He’ll smash it if the anecdotal is close to true. It’s all over social media, it’s all over my platform, it’s all over every story I hear,” Halperin said.
Halperin has been running focus groups of voters this election cycle on his 2WAY platform to get the pulse of the electorate.
He said that Trump had appealed to black men for his image of being rich and successful.
“The failure of liberals to make life in cities for poor kids better is also a massive scandal,” Halperin explained.
He noted that Trump did criminal justice reform, supported better schools, and created better economic opportunities.
Trump, Halperin thought, made a good point in 2016 when he asked, “What do you have to lose voting for [him]?” to the black community.
Halperin said that the Democrat Party couldn’t defend its performance in helping young black men.
Trump could be the most successful Republican since 1960 with black voters
Democrats signaled that the concerns about black men defecting from the party are real after former President Barack Obama was sent to scold them into supporting Vice President Kamala Harris.
Obama said at a Kamala campaign office in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania that the energy wasn’t there in the black community for the Vice President.
He lectured black men that they couldn’t sit out the election or vote for Trump.
CNN data reporter Harry Enten said that if polling proves correct, Trump would turn in the best performance for a Republican Presidential candidate since the 1960 Election.
“At this particular hour, if you believe the polling, Donald Trump’s going to put up the best performance with black voters since Richard Nixon in the 1960s,” Enten stated.
Enten noted that Obama won black aged 18-44 by 81 points in the 2012 Election.
That margin has gone down for Democrats in every election since then.
“And then you take a look at the average of the most recent polls and Kamala Harris is up by only 41 points,” Enten said.
Donald Trump could be on his way to making historic inroads with black voters on Election Day.
