Former Bush campaign manager Karl Rove joined Fox News on Friday and predicted Vice President Kamala Harris will soon have a solid lead over Donald Trump in the polls. “So let’s talk about where the race is, because in some battleground states, the polls seem to have been narrowing. Let’s put it up here Arizona. Trump still leads, though one poll has got Harris up by two. Same thing in Nevada. Wisconsin, Trump holds a very narrowly missed Michigan. Trump is ahead, but Harris is up 11 in one new poll, which I think might be an outlier. Trump continues to lead in Pennsylvania, North Carolina and Georgia. He’s still got the advantage, Karl, but she’s gaining momentum, there’s no question,” began anchor John Roberts.

SEATTLE - We all heard the phrase "when one door closes, another opens," and for 53-year-old Senator from Florida Marco Rubio, the popular saying could not be more true. Eight years ago, he missed out on the chance of being elected as the Republican presidential nominee for 2016. More recently, many people believed Rubio was a top candidate to be Donald Trump's running mate for the 2024 elections, which eventually went to Ohio Senator J.D. Vance. But Florida Republicans argue that there is another door that could open for Rubio, as they see him as top contender for another high-profile job in a future Trump administration.
