Richard Barris Critiques Defeatism in Political Polling
“With all these stories of cheating, people are saying they won’t vote because their votes doesn’t count. That is wrong. Your vote does count,” Barris told Peter Navarro.
Richard Barris appeared on Monday’s WarRoom and challenged the narrative of defeatism in political polling, particularly regarding Kamala Harris and her perceived underdog status. He argues that the media’s portrayal of Harris as a frontrunner is misleading and undermines genuine voter sentiment. Barris asserts that many Americans recognize the reality of the political landscape and are beginning to lean toward Donald Trump despite previous hesitations.
Media Influence and Polling Perception
Richard Barris highlights the media’s significant role in shaping public perception of political candidates. He argues that the current media landscape is heavily biased in favor of Harris, stating, "The entire world is against Donald Trump.” This statement underscores his belief that major media outlets, from Fox News to MSNBC, are actively promoting Harris while undermining Trump. He further elaborates, "Everyone… wants Harris to win,” suggesting a concerted effort to create a narrative that does not align with voter sentiment.
Misleading Polls and Public Sentiment
Barris emphasizes the disconnect between public polls and the true feelings of the electorate. He notes, "Kamala Harris’s polling does not look rosy for her,” pointing out that the reported numbers do not accurately reflect the mood among voters. Barris argues that many polls lack consensus, misleadingly portraying Harris’s viability as a candidate. He criticizes the notion that Harris can maintain a solid lead against Trump, calling it "insane” to believe she could outperform Barack Obama in critical states like Pennsylvania.
The Reality of Trump’s Support
Barris identifies a growing trend among previously reluctant Trump supporters now leaning toward him. He notes, "There is a fear… among those reluctant Trump supporters,” indicating that their concerns about Harris’s perceived radicalism outweigh their previous apprehensions about Trump’s chaotic style. He refers to these voters as "seasick voters,” who appreciate Trump’s policies but were initially put off by his demeanor. However, they now recognize Trump’s capabilities, acknowledging, "They know Trump can do the job,” reinforcing that his track record is beginning to resonate with them.
Concerns About Cheating and Defeatism
Barris also addresses the issue of electoral integrity, emphasizing that discussions around cheating can foster a sense of defeatism among voters. He argues that when people become overly fixated on allegations of electoral manipulation, it undermines their belief in the democratic process. "When we talk about cheating, it can lead to hopelessness,” he states, underscoring that this mindset can deter people from voting. Instead of succumbing to this narrative, Barris advocates for proactive engagement, encouraging supporters to maintain faith in the electoral system and to participate actively.
Harris’s Missed Opportunities
Barris criticizes Harris for failing to effectively communicate her message during debates, stating that she did not spend enough time convincing undecided voters to support her. He asserts, "They want to know what she is saying that can allow me to put my fate in her hands.” This reflects a broader issue of trust and connection that Harris has yet to establish with potential supporters. Instead of addressing her qualifications and vision, she often resorts to attacking Trump, which Barris argues is counterproductive.
The Presidential Bar and Voter Confidence
A key point Barris makes is that Harris has not met the "presidential bar” required to gain voter confidence. He articulates, "People are still wondering… if she can do this job.” This lack of assurance is a significant hurdle for her campaign. Barris’s assertion that Harris’s recent surge in popularity is a "media fabrication” further emphasizes his view that the narrative surrounding her is not rooted in reality but rather in favorable coverage and party support.
A Call for Realism
Barris’s comments reveal a critical perspective on the current political climate. He challenges the defeatism in polling narratives, emphasizing the need for a realistic understanding of voter sentiment. By highlighting the media’s influence, the disconnect between polling data and public opinion, and Harris’s failure to engage with undecided voters, Barris paints a picture of a political landscape where many are beginning to favor Trump. As he states, "Winners don’t ask for more debates,” suggesting that true confidence comes from a position of strength rather than from seeking validation through repeated contests.
Ultimately, Barris’s message is clear: maintaining engagement, fostering trust in the electoral process, and recognizing the realities of voter sentiment are crucial for success in the current political landscape.

Naomi Wolf threw President Trump under the bus on Warroom this morning over Trumps remarks on the Jewish vote polling at 40 % for him . So by what this 2014 article says about Naomi Wolf’s position on Israel I would say the 60 % of Jewish Voters must believe like her and are why Trump is not winning their votes . So what President Trumpshould be saying to them is do They want the USA to become the next Hamas /Palistine where under Kamala Democrats the Jewish people will have to submit to the demands of Anti-Jewish policies by Pro Hamas/Palistine Factions of the Democrat Controlled Federal Government with a Kamala Administration , LET ALONE what will happen to Israel ??? https://www.jpost.com/opinion/is-israel-guilty-of-genocide-in-its-war-against-hamas-374951
