Is Kamala Harris going to be the 47th president of the United States?

The latest polls for Kamala Harris are looking good, putting her several points ahead of Donald Trump. The 45th president who is desperate to be the 47th president must be seething. In fact, you can see he is seething. Ten weeks is a long time in politics, so the polls in her favour could dip or rise depending on what happens between now and November 5. But more could go wrong for Trump than for Harris. He might suddenly find himself being sent to jail for the business charge convictions, or at the very least given a suspended sentence or a hefty fine. Or, if there is going to be a TV debate between him and Harris next month, he could actually look Bidenesque with his mumbling and fumbling comments. He has a tendency to stray off the agreed track and if Harris comes out sounding like the prosecutor she formerly was, he could have a real hard time trying to get the better of her. I don't think he or his team can be looking forward to the debate because whatever else Harris says or does she is bound to win over the voters watching with her very amiable and smiley face. Trump looks such a grumpy old man these days and unless he rises to the occasion, Harris will come out top in the debate, and that will have an affect on her polling figures. By November, it's just possible she will be streets ahead of Trump and he knows it.
