image for GOP pollster on Trump-Harris: ‘I haven’t seen anything like this’

Republican pollster Frank Luntz appears stunned at the current state of the Kamala Harris-Donald Trump matchup and this year’s presidential election.

Luntz, who’s been called “The Nostradamus of pollsters” and conducts focus groups, had been bullish on Trump defeating Joe Biden and returning to the White House.

Now, he says, he can’t believe what he’s seeing among his focus groups and in the polls.

She’s got a demographic advantage and I haven’t seen anything like this happen in 30 days in my lifetime,” he said.

“Now my groups are broken up by young women saying, ‘I’m not voting for him anymore.’”.

@KamalaHarris has got an intensity advantage, and I HAVEN’T SEEN ANYTHING like this happen in 30 days in my lifetime.".
