Kamala’s 2024 Run Already Doomed?

In the upcoming November election, there is a notable discussion among political strategists about the prospects of former President Trump and Vice President Harris. David Axelrod, a seasoned Democratic strategist, expressed his views on the matter recently. Despite the growing momentum among Democrats for Vice President Harris’s candidacy, Axelrod emphasized that Trump remains a formidable contender. He highlighted the electoral challenges that could favor Trump in the race, indicating a cautious optimism regarding Trump’s chances.

Axelrod shared his insights on his podcast “Hacks on Tap,” where he and his co-hosts acknowledged President Biden’s decision to suspend his campaign and endorse Harris. They reflected on the significance of Biden’s move, describing it as a necessary albeit sad decision. Axelrod, who had earlier urged Biden to consider stepping aside, recognized the strategic importance of consolidating support behind Harris as the Democratic nominee.

The discussion around Harris’s candidacy has been mixed. While she has secured substantial endorsements within the Democratic Party and seen a surge in online support and donations, concerns linger about the perception of a “coronation.” Axelrod and others in the Democratic camp are wary that such an approach might not resonate well with voters, emphasizing the importance of earning the nomination through a competitive process.

Looking ahead, there is speculation about Harris’s choice for a running mate, a decision that carries significant weight in shaping her administration’s tone and priorities. Axelrod mentioned potential candidates like Governor Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania and Senator Mark Kelly of Arizona as serious contenders for the role, underscoring the strategic implications of Harris’s decision-making process.

Recent polling data has shown a tight race between Harris and Trump, with Harris holding a slight lead in some early polls following Biden’s endorsement. Despite this, analysts from the Trump campaign have predicted that Harris may experience a temporary bump in her polling numbers due to the excitement surrounding Biden’s endorsement, but they anticipate these numbers to stabilize as the election approaches.

As the election season progresses, both camps will continue to strategize and mobilize their bases, making the most of their respective candidates’ strengths and addressing potential weaknesses. The dynamics of the race remain fluid, with each development shaping the narrative and ultimately influencing voter perceptions as they head to the polls in November.
