JD Vance: Polls That Show Kamala Harris Has Electoral Momentum Are All ‘Fake!’

According to Sen. J.D. Vance, all of the polls that show Vice President Kamala Harris with political momentum on the eve of the Democratic National Convention in Chicago are all “fake” and shouldn’t be believed.

Vance appeared on the friendly airwaves of Fox News earlier this morning. Host Shannon Bream asked him about several recent polls that have Harris pulling ahead of failed former president Donald Trump in several key battleground states. Rather than answer the question, Vance suggested that support for Harris is stagnant and decreasing.

“How does that not line up then with another poll we got out this morning, Washington Post, ABC, they’re giving the vice president nationally a four to five-point lead?” Bream inquired. “I mean, those are new numbers.”

“So if you think the momentum is not swinging or your internal polls are suggesting differently, every other poll that’s been released has shown great momentum in her direction.”

Vance replied, “You know, Shannon, I think there are a lot of polls that actually show her stagnating and leveling off. Of course, ABC, Washington Post was a wildly inaccurate pollster in the summer of 2020.”

But this isn’t 2020. It’s 2024.

“We can’t worry about polls,” Vance insisted. “Consistently, what you’ve seen in 2016 and 2020 is that the media uses fake polls to drive down Republican turnout and to create dissension and conflict with Republican voters.”

“I’m telling you, every single person who’s watching this, the Trump campaign is in a very, very good spot.”

Fake polls? That’s a common refrain when a candidate is losing. And the Trump-Vance ticket is losing badly, especially when it comes to momentum and fundraising. Their poll numbers drop nearly every time one of them opens his mouth.

At this rate, Trump and Vance could wind up losing by a historic margin. Maybe that would finally put a stake through the heart of the MAGA movement.
