Trump LOSES IT over POST DEBATE Poll Results After AWFUL Debate

The New National Reuters ipsos poll has Harris ahead by Five Points let's take a look at that right now CN Harry Anon is here with much more Harry can you give us some context around that margin and the movement that you're seeing in polling post debate yeah I think it's rather important Kate to point out that the Reuters IPOs poll has actually been one of Harris's best so look you get that fivepoint margin right that 4742 that you mentioned post debate but that's actually not a lot of movement from where we were in August when Harris was up by four now that is movement from where we were in Late July when Harris was up by two but the bottom line here is this at least in the first polling that we're getting post this debate between Donald Trump and kamla Harris maybe slight slight slight movement in Harris's Direction but not overwhelmingly so so which I don't think is really much of a surprise given the 50 50 Nation we are right now but the bottom line is in the average of polls Harris had a slight National lead and at this particular point I think she'll probably hold on to that at least based upon on this initial signal yeah didn't hurt her maybe didn't also like it wasn't you know the death the the the nail moffen for Donald Trump candidacy either which is exactly kind of what people expected with this debate in the 5050 Nation we are in right now what is the biggest difference though you see in polls these these polls compared to those that came after the Biden Trump debate in June yeah I mean look it all comes down to mental state and being able to deal with challenges all right so mental sharpa can deal with challenges look at this back in the post June debate right look at that 52% of Voters said that in fact Trump was mentally sharp and can deal with challenges look at the Joe Biden number it was just 26% now look at the difference here look at this 58% in the post-september debate Paul said that Harris was mentally sharping can deal with challenges Trump's number actually dropped below 50% down to just 46 so that 52 to 46 so this was the big change that I think a lot of Democrats are hoping when they switched out Biden for Harris it came down to mental sharpness and the bottom line is the clear majority of Voters believe that kamla Harris is mentally sharping deal with challenges and the number for Trump that declined by six points between post June and post September I think that's a very welcome sign for Democrats so on the top line maybe not so much movement nationally but underneath the hood I think Democrats really have to like what they see and talking with people on TV from the Harris campaign and then hearing from Democrats involved with the campaign one of the things he is that everyone feels they did great in the debate the question is can it reach the undecided voters yeah and I'm not sure they have an answer at least not the answer they want yet so it leads me to this question we know what really is an undecided voter where are they and who are they yeah well look part of the challenge here is that undecided voters are undecided because they're not really focused on this campaign uh they uh they are lwi information voters they tend to be younger uh and uh likely they they they didn't watch the debate they may be seeing some social media uh on it but um they're hard to reach voters and they may make the difference in this race are they undecided between the candidates or are they undecided about whether they show up to vote well I think a little of both I I think one important thing to note is they probably have a pretty strong judgment about Donald Trump they're skeptical about politics generally uh they don't particularly like Trump but they don't know very much about kamla Harris they're open uh to her but they're also prepared to be disappointed by her as well so uh a big task for the campaign is to continue to fill in the picture of her and particularly around sort of transactional issues about the economy like what what is she going to do for me on that note one of the things you hear in the chattering class is oh you know K Harris needs more distinctive policy proposals is that what undecided voters want well I don't know if uh you know I don't think what she needs is a voluminous list of policies but there may be a few signature policies that speak to the economic experience quality of life experience of Voters uh in which she wants to go deeper and drive uh with those voters to give a sense that yeah she gets it I I think she might help uh I'll I'll I'll take a a chance on her but these voters are not going to be this is not 2008 this is not they're not going to be swept along here they they're they're going to grudgingly conclude that I'll take a chance on this which is why the Harris team I think genuinely does want another debate another chance to reach people who may not be paying attention the problem with her debate John performance one of the problems with it is it came rather early in this I mean there's going to be an eternity between now and November and so this the other motivation for a second debate is it's a second chance to do well and I think they're pretty confident she would uh and I think Trump's people are like you know what this didn't benefit us very much why should we take the risk of doing another yeah for all for all the the the argument that goes on out there inside a campaign you do a debate if he thinks it will will help you and you don't do it if you don't think it'll help you full yes you know and that's I think the only analysis on the Trump team right now they may change their mind because they think they need it but not I don't know if they'll change their mind he may change his mind and they keep goting him to try and change his mind by making it seem like he's not courageous enough to do another I do want your take on the Laura lummer thing um Donald Trump is has been traveling the country with her George Bush when I covered him in 2000 used to say you can judge the character of a man by the company he keeps you know Donald Trump is keeping company with this person who said just wildly racist things um you know know what does he get out of that including anti-semitic by the way um which is interesting giving Trump's rhetoric about that uh I think in first of all I I don't pretend to live inside of Donald Trump's head so I can't tell you exactly but it may be that if there's a strategic reason he's thinking look I got to get these people out who aren't particularly activated or I have to get my base out and she speaks to that base and I don't really care what the rest of the world thinks I'm speaking to these voters who may make the difference and right now this is a motivational race to try and get your base out it's not a persuasion race she can help persuade and look he had all those influencers who are you know there was a kind of exotic uh character to them but they speak to like tens of millions of people David axod next time I promise there will be fireworks thanks so much much I insist New National poll from Reuters cow IPOs shows kamla Harris leading Donald Trump by Five Points marking one of her strongest performances in recent polling Harris holds a 47% to 42% lead but the margin hasn't shifted significantly since August when she led by Four Points the slight movement comes after a recent debate between Harris and Trump which while not a decisive moment has appeared to benefit Harris marginally analysts note that this minor shift aligns with expectations in a deeply polarized 50/50 political landscape Harris has held a consistent National lead in the polling average and the current data suggests she will likely maintain this Advantage based on initial post-debate polling CNN's Harry Anon emphasized that while Harris didn't experience a massive surge post debate the results didn't hurt her campaign either Trump on the other hand did not experience any significant damage to his candidacy as a result of the debate which many expected to be a pivotal moment for both candidates with the electorate so evenly split the debate outcome was not likely to shift the needle in a dramatic way for either side one of the key differences in this polling compared to earlier ones particularly after the Biden Trump debates in June is voters perception of mental sharpness and the ability to handle challenges in June 52% of Voters viewed Trump as mentally sharp and capable of dealing with challenges while only 26% felt the same about Joe Biden however the post September debate polling shows a shift in favor of Harris now 58% of Voters believe Harris is mentally sharp and capable while Trump's number has dropped to 46% this Sixpoint decline for Trump is significant signaling that Democrats decision to switch out Biden for Harris may be paying off at least in terms of voter confidence in her mental agility although these changes in perceptions are promising for Harris the overall movement in the National polls remains slight however beneath the surface these shifts are encouraging for the Democratic base who are likely pleased with Harris's debate performance and the Improvement In Her Image the conversation then turns to the challenge of reaching undecided voters who may prove crucial in the outcome of the election many of these voters tend to be younger and are less engaged with the political process often classified as lwi information voters they are unlikely to have watched the debate and may only be consuming information about the campaign through social media as a result they are difficult to reach but could make a significant difference if they choose to vote ultimately the race appears to be a battle of voter motivation rather than persuasion both candidates are focused on mobilizing their respective bases and the undecided voters while important may not be as easily swayed as in past elections Harris however remains in a slightly stronger position based on the current polling and the Democrats are likely encouraged by the positive shifts in voter perception surrounding her Al sharpness and ability to handle challenges as the race continues both campaigns will need to navigate the everchanging Dynamics of voter sentiment especially in a deeply divided nation where every small shift can have significant consequences
