‘Trainwreck!’ GOP congressman outlines Kamala Harris’s major weakness ahead of US election

Kamala Harris has been blasted as a “trainwreck” as one of her major weaknesses has been exposed by a Republican congressman.

The Vice President and Democratic nominee is much more proficient with words than gaffe-prone Joe Biden but is also known for “going off script”.

Ahead of the US election on Tuesday, polls place Harris and her Republican rival Donald Trump neck-and-neck in several states.

One surprising Des Moines Register/Mediacom Iowa poll even predicted that Harris could steal the Hawkeye State from Trump who won by more than eight points four years ago.

The poll that emerged late on Saturday showed Harris over Trump by 47 per cent to 44 per cent.

When questioned about Kamala Harris’s seeming lack of media interviews in the run-up to the election, Congressman Andy Ogles told GB News that the Democratic Party was being “very guarded”.

The Republican congressman, who represents Tennessee’s 5th congressional district, said: “I think part of the problem they have with their candidate, in Kamala Harris is she tends to go off script. And when she does, it tends to be a bit of a trainwreck.

“Donald Trump can take a stage and talk for two hours. Biden can hardly do it for two minutes.

“And if she goes off a script again, it’s a trainwreck.

“So again, I think they’re being very guarded. I think they’re anticipating that some of these states could be very close and they can’t afford any mistakes in this homestretch.

“Whereas Donald Trump is comfortable on the stage in front of the mic in front of the camera, he’s getting all the earned media that he can get and he’s doing a great job at it.”

In the closing days of campaigning, Trump and Harris have been out in force in key swing states such as Georgia, Michigan and North Carolina.

However, according to a tally by the Election Lab at the University of Florida, more than 78 million Americans have already cast their votes.

Asked about the lack of debates in this election cycle, Ogles hinted it was too late now to host any more head-to-heads.

Ogles continued: “I have full faith in Donald Trump’s ability to debate. And so as many head-to-heads as possible is fine with me.

“But at this point, the election is just a few days away. I think the chairs have been set and we’re about to go into this victory.

“That being said, you take nothing for granted. Our kids run a cross country even if they’re holding steady in their position. You run hard and you run through the tape.

“You turn on the jets at the last minute and that’s what you’re going to see Donald Trump and myself do in my race as well.”
