When President Biden passed the torch to Vice President Kamala Harris in July she immediately changed the momentum of the 2024 election and energized the Democrats' base voters. The Democratic National Convention reflected this new energy and excitement. It was a joyful event, especially compared to the Republican convention, which was like a funeral and cult meeting mixed with a coronation. Public opinion polls since then have suggested a historic reversal of momentum as Harris rapidly caught up with Trump.
Harris successfully channeled a high-dominance leadership style, and in her one and only debate with Trump she publicly humiliated him by being smarter and sharper, exposing his fake alpha-male persona.
