Former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) claimed during an interview over the weekend that voters would be “abandon[ing] the Constitution” if they do not vote for Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris in November. Cheney made the remarks during a Sunday interview with Jonathan Karl on ABC News’ “This Week” while asked about her recent decision to endorse Harris over Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump. Cheney’s endorsement of Harris comes despite her repeated warnings in the past about how far-left and dangerous is on numerous issues. “Kamala Harris is a radical liberal who would raise taxes, take away guns & health insurance, and explode the size and power of the federal gov’t,” Cheney warned in 2020. “She wants to recreate America in the image of what’s happening on the streets of Portland & Seattle. We won’t give her the chance.” Now Cheney claims that “those of us who are conservative, those of us who believe in fidelity to the Constitution have a responsibility and have a duty to recognize, this is not about partisan politics, and the country is going to need to rebuild true conservative movement when we’re through this election cycle.” “But this November, casting a vote for Donald Trump or writing someone in means that you’ve made the decision in too many instances that so many elected Republicans have made which is to abandon the Constitution,” she continued, “to tell yourself that this is just simply, you know, a partisan choice. That’s not what we’re facing this time around.” WATCH: Liz Cheney: “This November, casting a vote for Donald Trump or writing someone in means you’ve made the decision that in too many instances so many elected Republicans have made, which is to abandon the Constitution, to tell yourself that this is simply a partisan choice.

Rep. Colin Allred (D-TX) lied this week when confronted during an interview that aired Sunday night about past remarks that he made about President Donald Trump’s border wall, claiming that his remarks were taken “out of context.” Allred, who is running as the Democrat Senate nominee against Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), made the false claim while being asked about campaign ads that he is facing where Cruz quotes Allred as saying: “If they build that racist wall, my generation is the one that will tear it down.” When asked if he still believed that the wall was “racist” and if he still supports tearing it down, Allred, who is trailing Cruz by several points in the polls, claimed: “Well, they were talking about, that’s a comment taken out of context, really.” He immediately deflected from answering question and attacked Cruz for not supporting the Democrats’ border security bill that many experts argued would actually make the Biden-Harris border crisis even worse than it already is. In a @tedcruz ad, @ColinAllredTX says “If they build that racist wall, my generation is the one that will tear it down.” He told us that quote was “taken out of context” and walls are “an important part” of border security. But, was that quote “taken out of context?” No. 1/2 pic.twitter.com/YyCzKCpftr — Ryan Chandler (@RyanChandlerTV) September 8, 2024 A clip from Allred’s 2018 primary race shows that he did make the remarks in the Cruz ad against him and that they were not taken out of context. Allred called the issue “the biggest issue facing the Democratic Party”, claiming that Trump’s immigration plan was “a racist plan.” “This plan is intended to take us back to a period in which we had a race-based immigration system,” he said. “I want to really briefly talk about this racist wall, because the symbol of this country cannot be a fence with a barbed wire on top of it. It has to remain the Statue of Liberty.” “And I tell you what, if they build that wall, my generation will be the one that tears it down, because we will not have this in this country,” he said. “We will not have… We’re not going to waste billions of our dollars on a racist campaign promise, and we’re not going to turn the symbol of this country into a wall with barbed wire on top of it.” Here’s the context from Allred’s 2018 primary. “This racist wall… if they build that wall, my generation will be the one that tears it down.” Two things can be true at the same time: Allred’s immigration views have evolved since 2018, and that quote is perfectly in context. pic.twitter.com/5BBVDddjkh — Ryan Chandler (@RyanChandlerTV) September 8, 2024

Gone is the sugar high over Kamala Harris based on less than accurate polls which peaked following the Democrat Convention only to replaced by Politico gloom due to the first "high-quality" survey since Joe Biden was dumped by the Democrats. The grieving Politico team of Ryan Lizza, Rachael Bade, and Eugene Daniels sounded their sad notes of reality check despair in the Sunday Playbook, "Sobering new polls for Harris." Once again, a new NYT/Siena poll is all anyone is talking about. Nate Cohn and his colleagues have published the first high-quality survey since KAMALA HARRIS replaced President JOE BIDEN on the ticket that suggests the VP’s hot streak may be coming to an end. Or could it be that Kamala's hot streak never started in the first place since, as Politico just admitted, this was their first high-quality survey meaning that the "hot streak" was based entirely on hope not reality? The Times poll shows DONALD TRUMP leading Harris by 1 point — 48 percent to 47 percent — among likely voters. Like any single poll, we’ll have to wait to see if it’s validated by other research in the coming days. The debate on Tuesday could also scramble things in some new way, so we don’t want to read too much into this morning’s numbers. But Cohn, who says “the result is a bit surprising,” offers some wise analysis about why the poll may be a leading indicator of “a reversion back toward” Trump: It's only surprising if you were unquestioningly drinking the Democrat sugar high Kool Aid of artificial enthusiasm which is apparently what Politico was doing. Trump remains popular, with a 46 percent approval rating — which is better than where he stood in either of his last two presidential campaigns. Trump has the edge over Harris when voters were asked generally which candidate is better on whatever was their top issue. One caveat to this is that when voters were asked about specific issues, the results were more mixed and along the lines you would expect: Harris has an advantage on democracy (50 percent to 44 percent) and abortion (55 percent to 38 percent), and Trump has an advantage on immigration (53 percent to 42 percent) and the economy (56 percent to 40 percent). In what Cohn calls “one of Mr. Trump’s overlooked advantages,” the Times poll says voters see the former president as closer to the center than Harris. This has to be a bitter pill for the Harris campaign to swallow, given how much work it has done since she took over as the Democratic nominee to occupy the center and, as Cohn points out, given some prominent issues where Trump is objectively not in the mainstream, such as election denialism. Who is the candidate of change? One question that stuck out to us is about which candidate represents “change.” We’ve repeatedly noted that Harris, a sitting VP tied to an unpopular incumbent, has done a lot of savvy political work projecting herself as the candidate of the future. But the Times poll douses some of those flames. It finds that 25 percent of respondents see her as representing “major change,” versus 51 percent for Trump. That’s a big problem given that 61 percent of voters in this poll say they want major change. Which tells us that one should never put much faith in early inaccurate quickie polls especially those taken in the month of August whose purpose is to artificially boost enthusiasm. However, despite Politico now suffering a big disappointment, we can expect them to fall into the same pattern of hyping polls based on not much more than the mists of fading hopes in future election cycles.
