Kamala Harris has a new ‘serious problem’ on her hands with just two days to the presidential election.
Female voters on both sides of the aisle were turned off by misogynistic comments made by top Harris campaign surrogate Mark Cuban last week saying Donald Trump does not surround himself with ‘intelligent women.’
And an ‘insulting’ new Harris-Walz ad suggesting women should ‘lie to their husbands’ about how they vote isn’t helping the Democratic nominee either.
In addition, questions remain about Harris’ husband Doug Emhoff’s ‘cheating and slapping’ scandal and her VP pick Tim Walz’s torrid romance with a Chinese woman he ‘led on for years.’
As a result, some of her female supporters could sit out this election, experts tell DailyMail.com.
That could spell major trouble for her campaign as voter turnout is crucial with Harris and Donald Trump neck-and-neck in all seven battleground states and polling within 0.5 percent of each other nationwide.
Jessica Anderson, president of the Sentinel Action Fund, told DailyMail.com that Harris now has a ‘serious women problem.’
And it’s not limited to her, it’s the ‘entire Democratic Party,’ she explained.
It all came to a head this week after Harris supporter billionaire Mark Cuban was forced to apologize for his ‘disgusting and misogynistic’ claim about Trump.
‘Donald Trump – you never see him around strong, intelligent women, ever. It’s just that simple,’ Cuban said while on one of his private jets sparking backlash.
‘On the Left, you have Mark Cuban calling conservative women weak and stupid,’ Anderson scoffed.
She also brought up a new Harris-Walz ad featuring Julia Roberts suggesting that women should lie to their husbands about who they vote for so they can ‘sneakily’ vote Harris-Walz.
It’s ‘insulting women and telling them to lie to their husbands,’ Anderson went on.
Sen. Katie Britt, R-Ala., said on Fox News Friday that ‘the fact [Democrats] believe that women can’t have tough conversations with their husbands is demeaning.’
She added about the Cuban controversy: ‘I worked for President Trump. I am not weak and stupid and I worked with a lot of other women who were not weak and stupid.’
It may not be enough to totally flip Democratic women to Trump, but it could lead numbers of them to sit out this election, she explained.
Britt said ‘absolutely’ that women will consider ‘sitting out’ the election based on Cuban’s recent comments.
And that could also hurt turnout for Democratic down ballot races, she said.
Rep. Ashley Hinson, R-Iowa, told DailyMail.com that the Harris campaign’s strategy will ‘backfire.’
‘Her campaign’s closing argument is to insult women’s intelligence and call Trump supporters garbage.
‘I guarantee that will backfire and inspire even more intelligent women across this country to get out and vote for Donald Trump.’
‘They’ve turned it into a campaign of fear-mongering,’ Britt added.
Kellyanne Conway, who was Trump’s senior counselor from 2017 to 2020, said Cuban’s comments show how ‘desperate and concerned’ Democrats are about the 2024 election.
Cuban’s ‘sexist’ remark comes as the latest in a series of issues potentially damaging to the Harris campaign with women.
Harris’ husband Doug Emhoff has been accused of ‘forcefully slapping’ his ex-girlfriend and cheating on his first wife with their nanny, whom he impregnated.
Harris has never addressed the controversies, angering the woman whom Emhoff ‘slapped so hard she spun around.’
‘He’s being held out to be the antithesis of who he actually is. And that is utterly shocking,’ she told DailyMail.com.
Another top Harris surrogate Michigan Gov. Grechen Whitmer recently angered Catholic women by posting an ‘offensive’ TikTok video mocking the Holy Eucharist.
And the vice president’s appearance on racy sex podcast Call Her Daddy with pro-abortion activist Alex Cooper didn’t help her with female Evangelicals.
The two discussed the importance of access to abortion for nearly the entire podcast.
DailyMail.com also exclusively reported that Harris’ VP pick Gov. Tim Walz had a secret fling with the daughter of a high-ranking Communist official during his 1989 teaching stint in China.
Jenna Wang, 59, claimed the VP hopeful showered her with gifts and seduced her before treating her ‘like a prostitute’ after leading her on without a proposal.
Despite the controversies, Harris is still polling well above Trump with women.
According to a DailyMail.com/J.L. Partners poll of 1,000 likely voters, she has a 14-point advantage over Trump with women.
When women are asked for a one-word summary of Trump, the most common words are: Corrupt, strong, and crazy. Idiot, arrogant, and dangerous come next.
For men they are: Strong, corrupt, and competent.
When men describe Harris, the most frequent words are: Incompetent, liar, competent.
For women they are: Strong, fake, and competent.
However, Trump is doing better with women than he did in 2016 on the heels of the infamous Access Hollywood tape.
But more women are voting early, in a good sign for the Harris campaign.
This week, Harris attacked Trump for saying that he would protect women whether they ‘like it or not.’
‘He simply does not respect the freedom of women or the intelligence of women to know what’s in their own best interests and make decisions accordingly,’ she said on stage in Phoenix, Arizona. ‘But we trust women.’
Meanwhile, Trump is trouncing Harris with men by over 22 points, according to the DailyMail.com poll.
Fifty-nine percent of men said they would vote for Trump, compared with 37 percent who said they could put their cross next to Harris’ name.
For women, 54 percent said they would vote for Harris, 40 percent for Trump.
