Rory Stewart of the Cameron and May UK governments has boldly predicted that Kamala Harris will beat Donald Trump by a “comfortable margin.”
A British conservative pundit and political expert has cast doubts on former President Donald Trump’s chances of victory, saying this week he sees Vice President Kamala Harris winning the 2024 election.
“I remain confident that Kamala Harris is going to win and win by a comfortable margin”, Rory Stewart, a former Conservative Member of Parliament (MP) and British Minister, said on an episode of his podcast, “The Rest is Politics.”
“And as I think I’ve said to you before, I believe this because I think what’s happened is the polling agencies are panicked, and it’s not surprising they’re all hovering around 50-50”, Stewart added.
“They’re hovering around 50-50 because they like to be in a pack and 50-50 is a pretty safe place to be”, Stewart continued. “I think that the turnout assumptions on Trump don’t make sense. I can’t see young African-American voters who say they support Trump necessarily turning out to vote in the polls.”
Stewart has enjoyed a varied and textured career in politics, serving as a diplomat in the Middle East before winning a seat in David Cameron’s 2010 government and eventually holding several ministerial positions before abandoning the Boris Johnson government in 2019.
