The Kamala Harris campaign is collapsing across the board. That was the case even before the horrific news from San Francisco.
That news is that the first-round draft choice of the San Francisco 49ers was just shot in broad daylight in a “safe” and “upscale” section of San Francisco. As the initial information about that shocking crime filtered out, I heard from three political operatives that this would reflect very badly on Kamala Harris. Their immediate reasoning is that former President Donald J. Trump and his campaign have very effectively tied “Comrade Kamala” to the increasing failures of crime and drug-infested San Francisco and California.
Often, busy, hardworking voters don’t pay attention to an issue until a lightbulb is lit above their heads, illuminating the threats facing them and their families. The shooting of the 49ers’ first-round draft choice was more like a floodlight than a lightbulb.
Now, not only will millions of Americans tie that shooting to the failed far left and Marxist policies of Harris, but they will ask themselves one of the most important questions of their lives: “How soon before the violent criminals Kamala Harris has let in, coddled, and enabled come to my city, town, or neighborhood?”
The answer to that question – as evidenced by the violent, illegal immigrant gang takeovers of entire buildings in Colorado – is: “They are on the way.”
Unfortunately for Kamala Harris and her “emotional support pet” running mate Tim Walz, the wheels came off her campaign long before this high-profile shooting in San Francisco. To understand why, we simply need to look back to 2019 to see Harris’s future in November.
When then-Senator Kamala Harris announced she was running for the Democratic nomination, she started with great fanfare and momentum. Not surprisingly, that momentum ran straight into a brick wall—one of her buildings.
Years ago, a friend of mine said this of a consultant who was quickly wearing out her welcome: “A little bit of her goes a long way.” In 2019, Democratic primary voters almost instantly decided that “a little bit of Harris went a very long way.”
The more they saw and heard of her, the more they turned against her. So much so, that she was quite humiliatingly, the very first primary candidate to drop out of the race. All her initial “fanfare” and “momentum” sunk in a sea of cackles and word salads. She did not even secure one delegate.
Leaving aside the reality that the more the American people see of Harris and her dangerous far-left policies, the less they like her, we come to another unassailable truth, which is dooming her campaign. That means that the American people can think for themselves and very clearly remember that they were much better off back when Trump was president. These tens of millions of voters now hunger for the Trump days of lower prices, lower energy bills, lower inflation, lower mortgage rates, a much safer border, lower crime, no wars in Ukraine and the Middle East, and the promise of a much brighter future for their children.
Another ominous sign for Kamala Harris and her campaign is the latest poll from Nate Silver. That forecast gives Trump a 52.4 percent chance of winning the Electoral College compared to Harris’s 47.3 percent. Why is that incredibly bad news for Harris? Two main reasons. First, it comes on the heels of her convention “bounce.” Second, almost all these polls are dramatically under-sample – purposefully, anyone – Trump voters.
As for the Kamala “bounce,” it didn’t even get knee-high before it burst. There are three main reasons for this. The first is that Harris is a demonstrably bad candidate. Even the delegates in the convention hall knew she didn’t say anything unless it was written down for her. Original thinking is not her forte.
Next, we see her huge mistake in picking the unvetted Walz as a running mate. From the second she did, she was on the defensive, trying to explain away the tall tales Walz had rolled out over the years about himself. All those, of course, came before he started to lock down his fellow citizens, encouraged them to snitch on each other, and watched while cities in his state were being looted and burned.
Last, Harris had no bounce from her convention because Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. chose the Friday of that week to announce that he was not only suspending his campaign and endorsing Trump but would spend every day until the election going after Harris/Walz and their draconian dictates and fabrications.
The largest of all those fabrications being Harris herself. The American people do realize that this seemingly AI-generated candidate who hides from the media and can’t string together three coherent sentences on her own has a cabal of deep state and Democrat power brokers behind the scenes pulling her strings. A totalitarian cabal which truly frightens the voters.
A cabal behind the Harris push to: surrender the border, abolish ICE, defund the police, enable and release violent offenders; end fracking, destroy our fossil fuels, destroy our energy independence, confiscate our guns, end middle-class tax cuts; and eliminate the healthcare plans of millions of Americans while giving billions to illegal immigrants and gang members.
The American people are very bright, and they are on the razor’s edge of fear. They have figured out that Harris and Walz are openly and repeatedly insulting their intelligence while threatening their quality of life.
Back in 2016, weeks before the election, I emailed a few key pundits to say that not only would Trump pull off the greatest upset in presidential election history but that he would also win Pennsylvania and get around 306 electoral votes. In 2024, I am saying the Harris campaign is collapsing, and with each passing day, Trump will gain more and more momentum on the way to victory.

Kammy the Commie’s campaign may be collapsing, but we shouldn’t underestimate the degree of fraud the Democrats are going to commit. I would expect more fraud than in 2020(!), which may well be too much for Trump to overcome. We’re heading for big trouble on Election Week unless Trump’s margin of victory is so large the Democrats give up on trying to steal the race, and even then they’ll riot and cause tremendous damage.
The stage is set for a big fight.
Either side can start it by blaming the other-Neither side can prevent it. We’re going to have to deal with it.
There is likely to be a fraudulent emergency too.
They’re definitely scheming to make something happen.
That communist-voting prick Brennan is overseeing one group that are trying to infiltrate & set-up conservative groups. Failing to entice any to take the bait, he’ll simply manufacture the next Reichstag Fire on his own. (Count on other groups to manufacture a false-flag incident also.)
We know this because leftists have done this already.
They staged those fake bombs “mailed” to democrats in October 2018 (just before the midterm elections). This was to paint conservatives as dangerous thugs, AND to distract from the ubiquitous attacks on Trump supporters.
In 2020 the FBI trawled for dupes to enter into a concocted plot against Gov. Whitmer – just in time for early voting in Michigan.
The same FBI prick who ran that scam sailed on to run the D.C. Office . . . where he set-up a scheme to provoke the Jan 6th patriots. The plot employed FBI provocateur Ray Epps and another fake bomb.
Be rest assured; these pricks want more, and are looking for a way to stage more.
We all know what a farce this whole campaign is. Nothing is as it seems. Not many comment any more because they are not deceived.
I was with him until he said “the American people are bright.”
As a whole, the American people are willingly distracted, blissfully ignorant, and tolerant of everything until it is too late.
We know this election is crooked by looking at the so-called ‘polls’. I realize I’m a conservative in a conservative state that went strong Trump (63%) but I’ve never met an admitted D voter. I know quite a few guys that have never voted but looking forward to voting for Trump this time just because the D candidate is SO bad.
It’s just hard for me to believe this great country has so many people that don’t appreciate it.
Trump-Vance ’24 because we HAVE to.
Never underestimate the stupidity of the public. We now have generations (plural) of brainwashed zombies in our midst. And they vote.
Second, referencing of Nate Silver’s latest proclamation that’s all over the conservative blogosphere is absurd. We like it because it favors us, but no one should lose sight of the fact that Silver’s predictions in the recent past have been way off. Compare that to the RCP data that proved, for the most part, to be pretty on target. Let’s stop cherry picking info because it suits our hopes and stay grounded in reality.
The reality is polling data at RCP has showed a trend in favor of Harris that hasn’t shifted yet. The reality is tens of millions of Americans are fools, are sympathetic to socialism, get their information from the legacy media which pounds Trump every hour of every day, and are completely unserious people. They like pretty Kamala, her empty platitudes that mean nothing but sound inspiring (if you’re a lemming), and “the first woman president!”
Boots on the ground! Volunteer for campaigns. Trump must win and we must also win the Senate and hold the House, as well. It’s a very tall order. It shouldn’t be in light of what’s unfolding in America, but it is. It’s not enough just to vote. Volunteer, get on the soap box with everyone you know, make sure people are registered to vote (you’d be amazed how many aren’t), make sure people get to the polls, etc.
None of us should look back and regret we didn’t do more. Jump in now and do everything you can, and then some, to increase our chances of winning.
Dems are going to cheat, just like in 2020. Trump leading by 12% is still the underdog. It will take surrounding buildings and not letting in trucks with fake ballots to win as well as probably a few direct actions to stop the steal
I always wonder how so many people in America could be so busy and hard-working that they have no time to notice that we’re quickly turning into a dangerous and corrupt dictatorship.
Just a thought. Have we reached the point where the number of people dependent on the gov, welfare recipients, govt employees and contractors, are equal to or greater than the number of people who work and pay the bills? I heard an historian say the other day we have a govt that has outgrown the economy that fuels it. One look at the national debt would appear to justify his statement. More to your point, how much resistance will all those govt dependents offer up when their employer decides tyrannical or authoritarian measures need to be taken to “save our democracy”? “Of, by and for the people” will take on an entirely new meaning when we reach he tipping point.
I expect to see the “Election Variant” of COVID to announced soon, with demands that all votes be by mail and the Secretaries of State mail out all the ballots to anyone and everyone who has ever registered. If they can’t cheat, they can’t compete.
I’m quite sure that even if no one at all voted for Kamala they will till try to install her while brazenly lying about the election results, while continuing to “find” more votes during election season to bolster the lie. There is no act so low that the Dems will not stoop to it for the sake of power.
MacKinnon neglects to mention that by any standard Kamala is a stupid person. Hard to believe that her IQ approaches 105, harder still that she has any interest in reading. You would think that the daughter of two highly regarded academics would have gone to college at Cal. Berkeley, where she was raised. Instead she attended Howard U., 3000 miles away in Washington, DC., a historically black college with the academic reputation of a glorified high school. While everyone assumes that she didn’t choose Josh Shapiro as her running mate because he is Jewish, another reason may be that he is an intelligent man who makes her look like a dunce by comparison. No such problem running with Tim Walz.
With Vance now in place, we’re less likely to see them try the bullet option again.
America is so screwed! These political freak shows? An ignorant, naive, government dependent constituency and a work force fast becoming infested with indoctrinated millennials? What a national nightmare…..quick time marching to the garbage pile of failed nations?
Well said. Our political class is an utter failure and the constituency is too preoccupied with creature comforts and false conceptions of just about everything.
