The Washington Examiner’s Tiana Lowe Doescher assessed that Vice President Kamala Harris has failed to properly show what she stands for with less than a week left before the election.
Harris gave her closing argument in a speech in Washington, D.C., on Tuesday night, during which she expressed a desire to “turn the page.” Doescher, a commentary writer for the Washington Examiner, contended that Harris has done “a decent job at trying” to paint a picture to voters of how she views former President Donald Trump to be, though voters already know who he is based on his political involvement over the last 10 years.
“She has still not defined herself and getting her team onto the same message,” Doescher said on Fox News’s Your World with Neil Cavuto. “‘Turn the page’ doesn’t totally work when you don’t know what policies she wants to turn away from. The best thing she could do is get Tim Walz and Joe Biden to stop blowing up her appeal to normalcy.”
Doescher’s comments referenced President Joe Biden’s recent comment about Trump supporters being “garbage,” in addition to Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN), Harris’s running mate, recently suggesting that there is a “direct parallel” between Trump’s Madison Square Garden event and a 1939 Nazi event held in the same area has not helped. Doescher contended Biden’s comment “undermined” the appeal Harris is trying to achieve, and that it also unintentionally helped Trump in drawing attention away from the controversy generated at his Sunday rally.
With just days until the presidential election, Doescher contended the former president should “absolutely” try and reach out to former Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley, who recently revealed she and Trump haven’t spoken since June. Doescher pointed to how “over 100,000” voters had supported Haley in the Republican Party’s presidential primary, adding that having Haley’s help could allow Trump to finally win the Republican voters who are choosing not to support either him or Harris.
Following Biden’s “garbage” comment, Haley was among the Republicans to speak out against the president, stating, “This isn’t a schoolyard.” While she has stated she has not spoken to the former president since June, she was one of many Republicans to speak at the 2024 Republican National Convention in July, during which she claimed Trump asked her to speak at the convention “in the name of unity,” and that she was happy to accept.

On Tuesday, the Washington Examiner’s Byron York previewed how Trump can carve his path to victory, which includes winning all the states he won in 2020, along with winning back Georgia and Arizona. If Trump does this, York explained, Trump only needs to win one of the other three swing states, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, or Michigan, to get enough Electoral College votes to win the election.
Trump is hosting an event in Wisconsin with former Green Bay Packers quarterback Brett Favre on Wednesday evening and will spend Thursday evening with commentator Tucker Carlson for a live one-on-one discussion in Glendale, Arizona.
