Behar Panics Over Polls as Trump Closes the Gap on Harris

The Democrats are in trouble, and even Joy Behar is feeling the heat. With just under three weeks until Election Day, Behar admitted on “The View” that the latest polls aren’t looking good for her beloved Democrats. The media darling is “starting to worry” as polls show Trump gaining on Vice President Kamala Harris in what could be a tight race.

“I’m starting to worry about the polls because I see a lot of the media saying that [former President Trump is] leading,” Behar said, urging viewers not to “buy into” the media’s narrative.

At a glance:

  • Polls show Harris barely ahead of Trump by 2 points, down from a 6-point lead.
  • Behar worries media coverage is disheartening for Democrats, urges voters to stay optimistic.
  • Trump is gaining support among Black male voters, with momentum on his side.

Behar’s concerns follow three recent polls showing a neck-and-neck race between Harris and Trump. An NBC News poll shows both candidates tied at 48%, while an ABC News/Ipsos poll has Harris ahead by just 50%-48%, a narrow margin compared to her previous 6-point lead. A CBS News poll also shows her slipping, holding a mere 3-point lead over Trump.

Even worse for Democrats, Trump seems to be making gains with Black male voters—something former President Obama has recently criticized. Co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin chimed in, reminding Behar and the panel that many Americans still support Trump, much to their frustration.

Despite her fears, Behar rallied the Democrats, calling on them to show up and vote, while Whoopi Goldberg dismissed the polls entirely, urging faith in the American public. With tensions running high, it’s clear the Democrats have a fight on their hands—and they’re starting to feel it.
