Democrats accused of misplaying the male vote in 2024
Making the 2024 presidential election a referendum on President-elect Donald Trump was ultimately "political malpractice," according to liberal media pollster Frank Luntz.
"It was too much defining what Trump was, and, Jon, we all know what Trump is," Luntz told ABC's "This Week" host Jonathan Karl. "We experienced him for four years.
"Whoever told her to focus on him committed political malpractice, because in the end you cannot change someone's point of view on him. It was all about her."
The gender gap decided the election, but not in the way Harris' campaign hoped by relying on women to elect the first female president, because Trump was the "voice" for disenfranchised Hillary Clinton voters from 2016 and President Joe Biden male voters in 2020, Luntz added.
"In him they saw someone that represented them," Luntz said. "And with her they saw — and it was great — young women getting excited for the first time, surrounded by women, talking about issues like abortion. That was great for the female vote.
"And men felt ignored. They felt forgotten. And they felt like they didn't even matter."
Ultimately, men "felt betrayed" by the Democrat ticket and repudiated Harris, according to Luntz.

I did not consider it a gender campaign. I remembered that Trump's first term was much better for the country than the Biden administration and I saw Harris as a continuation of the Democrats' failures and potentially worse because of her lack of political talent. She was never articulate and did not come across as smart.

That’s not really a way to convince them in the future to vote for you now is it?
