The writing was seemingly on the wall shortly before midnight on Election Day when CNN all but called the race for former President Trump. The so-called journalists were somber as they basically resigned themselves to a second Trump presidency; laughably admitting that Vice President Harris “could not out run the Biden economy” the media had been telling Americans they were too stupid to understand.
“Generally speaking, he is over performing with what he did in 2020 and she is underperforming what Joe Biden did in 2020. And that ends up what was a narrow edge for Biden is, at this point – we have to condition it – a narrow defeat for Harris,” lamented Chris Wallace.
Dana Bash suggested that North Carolina was a bell whether microcosm of the rest of the country, “In that there are growing minority populations, and there is a growing sort of suburban maybe more moderate population in and around the big cities.”
But she and Audie Cornish admitted that it was the economic pain that sunk the Harris campaign:
BASH: But look, the headwinds of the economy, the inflation that people are feeling, the difficulty in their everyday lives.
CORNISH: Yeah. She could not outrun the Biden economy.
BASH: She couldn’t. The economy, Chris, that is what people are feeling every single day.
“I mean, we were talking earlier about whether or not the, sort of, women and the idea of this being the first post-Roe presidential campaign was going to supersede how people felt when they were buying eggs and milk,” Bash added. “And certainly, in North Carolina and other places that we are seeing start to formulate in these other states, the answer is no.”
Clearly, the American people saw through the liberal media’s years of gaslighting about the economy.

CHRIS WALLACE: Generally speaking, he is over performing with what he did in 2020 and she is underperforming what Joe Biden did in 2020. And that ends up what was a narrow edge for Biden is, at this point – we have to condition it – a narrow defeat for Harris.
DANA BASH: And the thing about North Carolina – and John has been talking about this and we’ll do more at the wall – is, you do have kind of a sense of the country in the state of North Carolina. In that there are growing minority populations, and there is a growing sort of suburban maybe more moderate population in and around the big cities. And so, that is why the Harris campaign thought, with the dynamics of the country right now, that she would have a better shot.
But look, the headwinds of the economy, the inflation that people are feeling, the difficulty in their everyday lives.
AUDI CORNISH: Yeah. She could not outrun the Biden economy.
BASH: She couldn’t. The economy, Chris, that is what people are feeling every single day. I mean, we were talking earlier about whether or not the, sort of, women and the idea of this being the first post-Roe presidential campaign was going to supersede how people felt when they were buying eggs and milk. And certainly, in North Carolina and other places that we are seeing start to formulate in these other states, the answer is no.
