   Via Dave Wasserman:

   Latest numbers: across the seven battleground states, the '20-'24 swing towards Trump was ~3.1 pts. Across the other 43 states (+DC), it was ~6.7 pts.

   Bottom line: the Harris campaign swam impressively against some very strong underlying currents.

     @Lon3star @GottaLaff Nah. We lost this fight when we failed to counter Rush giving away his show to rural America. Today's problems are yesterday's errors come home to roost.

     @GottaLaff seemingly missing on the economy as the primary tipping point is astounding.

     There were plenty of moments from Harris and surrogates that highlighted that TFG inherited a strong economy from Obama, then buried it with tax cuts for the wealthy and the handling of the pandemic.

     The last 4 years of Biden have been digging out of that hole AND successfully avoiding a recession. Maybe digging in here more and a clearer roadmap would have helped 🤷
