Kamala Harris’s prospects for a smooth path to the 2024 presidency were dealt a significant blow following her recent CNN interview.
What was meant to highlight her leadership alongside running mate Tim Walz turned into a crucial moment that could impact the election.
According to Newsweek, two prominent bookmakers have revealed that Harris’s chances of winning have noticeably decreased after the interview.
On Thursday evening, Harris was the favored candidate with odds of 10/11 (52.4%), but by Friday morning, her odds had fallen to 19/20 (51.3%), putting her in a tie with Donald Trump, as reported by Star Sports betting company.
During the same period, Trump’s chances of winning increased from 21/20 (48.8%) to 20/21 (51.2%), according to Betfair, a U.K.-based bookmaker.
Harris encountered unscripted questions for the first time in weeks during this interview, a scenario eagerly awaited by her Republican detractors.
During the interview, Harris confidently asserted her commitment to “empowering and advocating for the middle class” if elected, while also supporting the Biden administration’s efforts to “revitalize the economy” in response to what she characterized as Trump’s mishandling of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Star Sports betting analyst William Kedjanyi noted that Harris’s odds have been fluctuating, stating, “Vice President Harris is now tied at 19/20 with Republican candidate Donald Trump, drifting slightly from 10/11 yesterday. The Californian had been 5/6 in recent weeks, but she has failed to surge ahead of Trump in the market.”
On the contrary, supporters of the GOP are likely to find encouragement in this change of momentum, anticipating that Trump will gain an advantage as the election approaches.
Betfair spokesperson Sam Rosbottom echoed these sentiments, noting that the betting market had been neck and neck prior to Harris’s CNN appearance. He added, “Momentum is now with Trump, and he has become the odds-on favorite again after being backed into 21/20.”
During her interview, Harris placed a strong emphasis on policy, vowing to address “price gouging” and lower the cost of essential goods.
She also committed to providing a $25,000 tax credit for first-time homebuyers and extending the child tax credit by $6,000 for families in their child’s first year.
Harris highlighted the achievements of the Biden administration, including reducing inflation to below 3% and capping insulin expenses at $35 per month for seniors—accomplishments she asserted were not fulfilled by the Trump administration.
In a heartfelt tribute, Harris commended President Biden for his intelligence, dedication, and loyalty to the American people, contrasting these qualities with what she portrayed as a lack of similar attributes in Trump.
When confronted with Trump’s assertion that she “happened to turn Black” for political advantage, Harris dismissed it as part of the “same old, tired playbook,” declining to engage further.
Was nothing more than a lie filled nothing burger
you are correct .. say no .. to Marxist 1 and her support animal .
Oh come on give us a break! I knew long ago this tripe pedaling crony jackass was a tool of the left just out to screw things up as per the order from the globalist cabal with snakes like Soros looking to rake in the billions for more ill-gotten self-gains!
This witch is owned; and not just by the Cabal/Deep-state/Commies but truly Satan!
It was reported months ago by their own crony treasury sec. Yellen!
“Cavuto pressed Yellen on why Biden keeps making this assertion, pointing out that inflation was actually only 1.4% when Biden was inaugurated and didn’t reach its peak of 9% until 16 months into his presidency.”
“Inflation hit 9% at its peak,” Yellen first argued. Then she admitted, “inflation was much lower under President [Donald] Trump.”
Why bother having an election with these lying scums; they treasonously stole the 2020 election so who is this Harris to even cast one vote for her; a LOSER? Let’s just install Trump and call it a day!
All this game playing and pure BS is just smoke and mirrors from the liars!
It is hard to hide evil. Dishonesty, flip flopping and flat out lying will eventually come out sooner or later. And it did. Adopting President Trump’s platform didn’t pay off.
True Stan!
I just posted the following elsewhere on this site which fits here as well!
We need these heroes now (Trump Vance), as we see what the opposite devils have done to our country for the last 3 and a half years; we’ve had evil in complete control, but now “divine intervention is required” to get us on our feet and ready to fight the bigger battles up the road that are surely coming! Please pray daily and do your best to serve God’s will!
Revelation 21:7-9 “The one who overcomes will inherit all things, and I will be his God, and he will be My son. 8But to the cowardly and unbelieving and abominable and murderers and sexually immoral and sorcerers and idolaters and all liars, their place will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur. This is the second death.” 9Then one of the seven angels with the seven bowls full of the seven final plagues came and said to me, “Come, I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb.”
Revelation 20:9-11 “And they marched across the broad expanse of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city. But fire came down from heaven and consumed them. 10And the devil who had deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur, into which the beast and the false prophet had already been thrown. There they will be tormented day and night forever and ever. 11Then I saw a great white throne and the One seated on it. Earth and heaven fled from His presence, and no place was found for them.”
Amen and Amen.
