Editor’s Note: We are not fans of Kevin McCarthy’s buddy, Frank Luntz. He is not a good pollster and he’s a horrible person. But when he’s right he’s right and in this case his assessment is accurate. It highlights an important idea that must be hammered home in the minds of Republicans.
Kamala Harris is an absolute failure with issues, policies, and actions. She is on the unpopular side of the table on nearly everything from the border crisis to men in women’s sports to the economy. It’s truly unfortunate that attacks against her lately have centered on her racial flip-flopping. It’s not an effective strategy to wonder whether she’s Indian or Black because, as nearly every American knows, she can be both. It doesn’t move the needle to highlight how she picks one or the other depending on the circumstance. It WILL move the needle to tell people how abysmal she has been as a politician and how huge of a mistake it would be to make her president. With that said, here’s the report from Daily Caller…
(DCNF)—Pollster Frank Luntz said that former President Donald Trump could inflict major political damage on Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign with one short question.
Trump can defeat Harris at the ballot box if he asks voters “can you name one thing she accomplished as Vice President?,” Luntz told FOX 11 Los Angeles’ Elex Michaelson during an appearance on “The Issue Is Show,” which aired Friday. Focusing on Harris’ record, rather than launching personal attacks, will be an effective strategy for beating her in November, he said.

“People don’t like it when politicians attack each other. Accountability? Yes,” Luntz said. “Attacks? No.”
Michaelson then asked what “word choice” Trump should use when talking about Harris.

“Can you name one thing she did as vice president? And leave it at that,” Luntz responded. “Can you name one thing she accomplished as vice president? Ten words. He’s incapable, and all these people are gonna watch this, all these Trump voters are gonna say, ‘You’re so mean, and you’re so partisan and you don’t like him so you’re criticizing him.’ Just once, can he answer a question in ten words? Or answer with ‘Yes’ or ‘No.’ Just once, can he answer anything without delivering an attack?”
Harris promoted several signature administration initiatives during her time as vice president, including costly green school bus and broadband programs that have struggled to gain much traction to date.
“And it’s legitimate criticism. She was number two in this country, she was given the responsibility for immigration,” Luntz continued. “Now, I’m going to upset the other side. How’s our immigration working out?”
Biden tasked Harris with addressing the root causes of immigration to the U.S., which she once said included a “lack of climate adaptation.” The Biden-Harris administration presided over at least 6.7 million illegal migrant encounters at America’s southern border alone, according to the House Committees on Homeland Security and Oversight and Accountability.

“Well, her folks would say she was put in charge of investigating the root causes of immigration,” Michaelson responded.
“And what did she do there?” Luntz asked. “What did she do there? How successful has she been? What else did Joe Biden task her to do? In our lifetime, we’ve seen Dick Cheney, who was arguably as powerful as the president. A vice president, and Joe Biden when he was vice president, had specific responsibilities under the Obama administration. She did nothing.”
Polling has tightened significantly after President Joe Biden quit the race and threw his support behind Harris in July. Harris, who has yet to partake in an unscripted long-form interview since becoming the de facto Democratic nominee, trails Trump by about 1% in the RealClearPolitics polling average, compared to the three point average lead Trump had over Biden before the latter stepped aside.
