A recent Rasmussen Reports poll revealed that 45th President Donald Trump is dominating Vice President Kamala Harris just days after she became the presumptive Democrat nominee following President Joe Biden's unprecedented exit from the presidential race. The polling lead comes as the mainstream media and the Democratic Party are working vigorously to rebuild Harris' image from a progressive radical to a respected politician.
According to the survey, Trump is leading Harris by seven points nationally with 50 percent of the vote compared to Harris' 43 percent. Four percent of voters are currently undecided. The poll, which asked 1,074 likely voters, also found that Harris is struggling against Trump in a multi-candidate race. Trump is dominating with 49 percent support, while Harris has 42 percent, independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. with four percent, and Green Party candidate Jill Stein with one percent.
While Trump's national lead continues to hold, his lead in various swing states has narrowed somewhat. A recent Emerson College poll found that Trump is leading Harris by one point in Michigan, by two points in Georgia, by five points in Arizona, and by two points in Pennsylvania. The two presidential candidates are tied in Wisconsin, where Trump previously led Biden by five points.
The vice president's ability to narrow the gap in the various swing states could be a brief honeymoon moment for the presumptive Democratic nominee. Still, it will likely impact her decision on who she will pick as her running mate. Trump campaign manager Chris LaCivita revealed on Wednesday that, according to his reliable sources, Gov. Josh Shapiro (D-PA) will be selected to join Harris on the ticket.
Vice President Harris' alleged selection of Shapiro will give Democrats a better chance at winning Pennsylvania, a state central to Democrat electoral strategy to reach 270 electoral votes in November. Gov. Shapiro has a long history in Pennsylvania politics, having served in the state House as attorney general and as governor after defeating Doug Mastriano (R-PA) in 2022 with over 700,000 votes. The Pennsylvania governor currently enjoys a 26-point net approval rating in the Keystone State, and his selection could bring enough voters to the Democrats in November to ensure it goes in Harris' favor.
Shapiro could be a strong pick to bolster Harris' campaign and close the gap in the Keystone State. While the running mate has yet to be officially named, other names have been circulated as potential vice presidential picks for Harris, including Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ), Gov. Andy Beshear (D-KY), Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, Gov. Roy Cooper (R-NC), and Gov. Andy Beshear (D-KY).

President Trump is still dominating in the polls because Harris still owns her and bidens disaster. And for the fact that she has been lying and hiding bidens meat in cognitive for over 4 years. And that has put America in peril, we are one the verge of world War III because of their disaster. And she has 0 foreign policy experience. Not to mention she wasn't the voted nominee but was installed communist style in a in house staged coup disenfranchised 14 million democratic voters. This far left radical marxist party just through their votes away and they themselves installed Harris. That's their view of democracy.
