“I don’t think I’ve ever said this before. So we do these rallies. They’re massive rallies. Everybody loves, everybody stays till the end. By the way, you know, when she said that, well, your rallies people leave. Honestly, nobody does. And if I saw them leaving, I’d say, and ladies and gentlemen make America great again and I’d get the hell out, ok? Because I don’t want people leaving. But I do have to say so I give these long sometimes very complex sentences and paragraphs but they all come together.”

— Donald Trump, at a campaign event in Michigan.

“For the first time in the 2024 election cycle, Vice President Kamala Harris is viewed as more likely than former President Donald Trump to win the U.S. presidential election,” according to a CNBC Fed Survey released Tuesday.

New York Times: “His remarks amount to a flip of a well-worn political script. For years, Democrats have argued that Mr. Trump’s autocratic instincts, his escalating threats to imprison those he sees as foes, his efforts to overturn the last election he lost, and his refusals to commit to accepting the results of the next one, render him a unique threat to America’s founding ideals. Dire warnings of the dangers of another Trump presidency have been accompanied by an incitement to vote, and defeat the former president at the ballot box.”

“Now, as part of a continued effort to deny Democrats one of their chief lines of attack against him, Mr. Trump is seeking to blame his opponents for an increasingly volatile political climate that he himself has helped stoke.”

A new Angus Reid poll finds Kamala Harris leading Donald Trump nationally among registered voters, 49% to 45%.

Former six-term Rep. Bob Inglis (R-SC) is adding his name to the growing list of Reagan- and Bush-era conservatives who say they plan to vote in November for Kamala Harris, the Charleston City Paper reports.

Said Inglis: “Donald Trump is a clear and present danger to the republic. He’s disqualified based on character and rationality, so I’ll be voting for Kamala Harris.”

“Kamala Harris largely stuck to her script during an interview Tuesday with a panel of National Association of Black Journalists members, carefully parrying questions about hot-button issues like the war in Gaza, reparations and other critical election topics,” Politico reports.

“It was the vice president’s second high-profile national media interview since announcing her presidential run, and though she spoke passionately at times about abortion rights and other policies, she did not break much ground or stray far from her talking points during the near hour-long conversation.”

Kamala Harris spoke with Donald Trump on Tuesday to check in after a second apparent assassination attempt against him, Axios reports.

Said Harris: “I told him what I have said publicly, there’s no place for political violence in our country.”

Harry Enten: “It’s kind of hard to believe, but the bottom line is that 4% — 4% in the average of polls — 4% of voters say that they are undecided. That is just half the level that we saw in 2020, well, less than the 10% we saw at this point in 2016.”

“So the bottom line is, in this particular election, Kamala Harris and Donald Trump are focusing their attention on this tiny, tiny sliver, much lower than we’re used to. In fact, it’s the lowest level of undecideds that we’ve seen in polling at this point, this entire 21st century.”
