“The momentum of Kamala Harris has stalled, and I think they feel like they have to change something that’s going on in their campaign, because they were seeing a rise and now it has stalled out,” Enten stated. “She’s still more popular than Trump, but look, Joe Biden was more popular than Trump, much more, and barely won, and Hillary Clinton was more popular than Donald Trump and lost. Being more popular than Trump isn’t enough,”
Enten underlined his level by suggesting, “She wants to continue seeing her [favorability numbers] rise, but in fact, they’re going in the wrong direction.”
