Frank Luntz says Kamala Harris is changing the electorate and Democrats could win the presidency, House and Senate.
Republican pollster Frank Luntz warned that Donald Trump’s campaign needs a serious shift in messaging or Republicans risk losing the presidency, the House and the Senate in November.
Polls from the presidential race show little movement among voters, with Trump and Biden holding relatively steady with their supporters. But since Vice President Kamala Harris became the Democratic candidate, the polling has tipped in her favor, and she’s gaining momentum with voters who were undecided, a problem for Trump in what is expected to be a very close race.
„He’s lost control“, Luntz told CNBC’s Squawk Box on Wednesday. „I know there are billionaires who watch this show who are spending a lot of money on Donald Trump, and they don’t understand why he’s committing political suicide.“
The GOP pollster was specifically referencing Trump’s comment about firing union workers. During a Monday X (formerly Twitter) conversation with Elon Musk, the former president praised Musk for his anti-union stances and for firing people who go on strike. The comment came weeks after Sean O’Brien, president of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, spoke at the Republican National Convention.
