In the middle of Manhattan in New York, he sits with a cup of coffee and a bubble vest. The man who had a record-short 11 days as Trump’s communications manager in 2017 has switched sides. Now he is Kamala Harris’ husband. Anthony “The Mooch” Scaramucci reappeared when Biden resigned, because working for Biden was out of the question. He himself refers to the election campaign between Biden and Trump as a battle between the films “Weekend with Bernie” and “Cuckoo’s Nest”. – It was like having a half-dead person quiet against a madman. Then the Americans choose a strong liar over a weak, good-hearted person, he says with a smile. Now he sees the same thing that many opinion polls point to. The United States is becoming more and more divided and different groups are moving away from each other. Women for Harris and men for Trump A clear majority of young women say they will vote for Kamala Harris as America’s first female president, so men under 30 go over to Donald Trump. Spanish-speaking voters in the United States are also among the groups that do not support the Democrats as wholeheartedly as they usually do, according to the latest survey conducted by the New York Times/Siena College. Kamala Harris is doing worse among Latinos than the last three Democratic presidential candidates, while former President Donald Trump maintains, or strengthens, support. Kamala Harris is doing well among young, female voters, but is struggling to get young, white men on board. Here from Monday’s election meeting in Erie, Pennsylvania.

But Harris is particularly far behind in getting the support of young, white men. Only 40 percent consider saying yes to her, while well over 50 percent have decided on Trump. – Donald Trump is an embodiment of their rage or anger, says Anthony “The Mooch” Scaramucci. Scaramucci has switched sides and is now supporting Kamala Harris. He realizes that she has a problem getting men onto the team. – Young white men in particular feel they have lost the right to speak in the United States. They go to Trump. They are frustrated, says Scaramucci to news. Only 40 percent of young white men are considering saying yes to Harris, while over 50 percent have already decided to vote for Trump.

Apart from promises to remove tax on the tips that those in the catering industry might receive. Kamala Harris has promised to make it easier for first-time buyers to enter the housing market. She proposes a subsidy of around NOK 250,000 ($25,000) and the construction of 3 million apartments to bring prices down. Young people can respond to surveys, but how many turn up at the polling stations is unpredictable. There was a record turnout at the last presidential election in 2020. Then around half of those under 30 stood. In comparison, four out of five over 60s voted. Appearing more macho Scaramucci believes Trump’s popularity is a result of the ongoing culture battle. Trump has repeatedly shown that he has a rougher language and that he appears more macho than other candidates. Trump’s former communications manager Anthony Scaramucci believes it is a paradox that the right wants less government control, except in the bedroom. There, the Republicans will control reproductive health, such as abortion laws, and your sexual orientation. At the same time, the Democrats want to push through liberal values, wake up, in the traditional families, he says. – There should be a space in the United States where everyone can live peacefully together without these tribal feuds. Video interview with Anthony Scaramucci Photo: screenshot via Zoom Scaramucci, who has an office in New York, refers to the big city when he wants to explain Trump’s success among young and white men in particular. – The universities in New York have interest groups for blacks, lesbians, gays, but there are very few organizations that advocate for white men. They feel left out, says Scaramucci and points out that men feel they find support in Trump because the woke movement has gone too far. Jevnt MÃ¥linger shows that not only young whites, but also black and Spanish-speaking men prefer Trump. At least when they are asked by the pollsters. Trump often talks about what he believes to be problems with immigration, but a clear majority, almost 70 percent of Spanish speakers, do not think Trump is talking about them, writes the New York Times.

I hope Harris wins, but it could be a tough fight because Americans fear the immigration Trump is talking about. – What makes the measurements so even? – Kamala Harris has not had much time to build a coalition or create the necessary enthusiasm. She just has to show herself more, says Scaramucci. It is particularly in these seven swing states that the election will be decided: Published 18.10.2024, at 14.09 Updated 18.10.2024, at 16.27
