Report: Harris Campaign Worried Trump Will Call Election Too Early
The Facts
US Vice Pres. Kamala Harris and her Democratic presidential campaign have said that they're preparing for the possibility that Republican candidate Donald Trump declares victory prematurely or challenges the results if he loses.
Speculation on the matter is reportedly shared by some Trump advisors who spoke to NBC News. However, a former Trump advisor said that unlike in 2020, when Trump was influenced by Rudy Giuliani, the 2024 senior campaign leadership won't encourage it.
The Spin
Donald Trump and his allies in Government are attempting to push the same election denial scheme they pushed in 2020. This should worry everyone who witnessed the 2020 election, especially regarding the 147 Republican congressmen who voted to overturn certain results. As Trump works to sow doubt, the rest of the country must remain clear-eyed about the results.
Democrats are launching a full-court smear campaign because they're the ones who are worried about losing. It makes sense that Harris, who, according to early voting records is on the path to defeat, would like everyone to believe Trump wants to steal the election. While no once can be certain until election day, Americans should keep this in mind over the next two weeks.
