CNN Host Chris Wallace Says Kamala Harris Winning Would ‘Be a Miracle’ Given Disapproval Ratings for Biden

As a seasoned movie critic with a career spanning decades, I find myself drawing parallels between the dramatic unfolding of this election night and a nail-biting political thriller. Chris Wallace, the venerable CNN host, has delivered a sobering analysis that is reminiscent of a seasoned director setting up the stakes for his audience: Kamala Harris and the Democrats need a “miracle” to win over Donald Trump, given the country’s largely negative opinion of President Biden.


On Tuesday night as the voting booths started closing, Chris Wallace from CNN expressed his view that Kamala Harris and the Democratic Party would require a remarkable turnaround to triumph over Donald Trump in the presidential election, considering the predominantly unfavorable views towards incumbent President Biden that CNN’s early exit polls had shown.

During a discussion on the network last night, Wallace pointed out that if current voters are expressing dissatisfaction with the country by a ratio of three-to-one, it would be astonishing for Kamala Harris to win given such strong opposition. He noted that even though she is part of the Biden-Harris administration, its approval rating stands at 41%, while disapproval hovers at 58%. This means the administration’s support is significantly below 50%.

Should she manage to triumph over these challenges and win the election, it indicates she’s done an exceptional job in distinguishing herself as someone who offers solutions rather than being a part of the problems.

As a dedicated CNN news aficionado since 2022, I shared my insights around 50 minutes before the East Coast polls closed, during a panel discussion led by Jake Tapper. We delved into early exit polling data from our network, which probed voters about their feelings towards the current state of affairs in the U.S. The responses were intriguing: 7% expressed enthusiasm, 19% satisfaction, 43% dissatisfaction, and a striking 29% anger. On the topic of whether America’s best days lie ahead or behind us, an optimistic 61% believed they reside in our future, while 34% felt they were in our past.
