“There has been a lot of soul searching. Democrats have been looking at when Biden got out of the race and whether there should have been a primary, but also about the issues that the party was focused on in the race. The Democratic Party and Kamala Harris were very much expecting the issue of reproductive rights and abortion rights to motivate women to the polls. The majority of women did support support Harris. But that was not enough to overtake Trump's lead and that was not what they predicted. There has been a lot of talk about the economy and how that was a big concern for so many people and that perhaps the Democrats should focus more on their messaging on that topic. But how the Harris campaign got their message out has also been a big point of discussion. The Republicans put Donald Trump on podcasts that were very popular with young men and used influencers on social media to get the word out. Democrats focused very much on traditional mainstream media.”

“The Harris campaign did not necessarily do a good job of explaining how her policies would help the middle class, or at least that message wasn't really resonating with a lot of voters.”

“Harris focused too much on abortion rather than more salient issues, such as economic policies, that would appeal to working class voters, including women. This caused Harris to lose critical battleground states that had consistently voted for Democrats before 2016. Harris lost Wisconsin because she lost the working class and did not win women, suburbs and young voters.”

“She [Kamala Harris] had decades of government experience under her belt: from her time as a public prosecutor to her service in the Senate and White House. That raises questions about why so many voters opted for her opponent. This loss just underscores the amount of ingrained racism and white hetero-patriarchy, the deep-seatedness of white supremacy in this nation. You can't deny that she is someone who could have served as president on day one. Trump has repeatedly described Harris as low IQ and mentally disabled, even calling her one of the dumber people in the history of our country. That kind of rhetoric gave his supporters a licence to dismiss and denigrate Harris. The way that Trump has painted her and people's responses to her have just brought out the worst in a lot of folks.”

“I don't believe in that [a wave of retaliation by Trump]. I think there's a lot of theater around that more than there is real sort of retribution. I would anticipate a lot of volatility - personnel but also significant boomerangs on policy. Not boomerang from Biden-Harris but boomerang from himself. You'll have one position one day and another the next.”

“The coalition that elected them wanted them [Biden-Harris] to unite the country, and they failed to do so. Their failure has resulted in further disillusionment with our country's politics and empowered the Trump base to give him another narrow victory after setbacks in three consecutive general elections.”

“Challenging stereotypes and inspiring a new generation of women leaders would be important accomplishments of a Harris presidency. But her administration could do even more. She could also use her experience and the insights afforded by her identity to advance peace and prosperity at a turbulent time, adopting an approach to global affairs that expands alliances, embraces global governance reform to bring in new voices and ideas, and harnesses the undertapped potential of half the planet. From reproductive health to economic participation to gender-based violence, matters identified as women's issues are too often granted less attention and less funding than they deserve. Making them integral parts of policy can go a long way toward addressing many of the economic, political, and social problems that ail the United States and countries across the world.”

“Trump certainly says, thinks that he can talk to [Chinese President] Xi Jinping, in the same way he thinks he has special rapport with strong men and dictators the world over. And I suspect that Xi knows how to stroke that ego in a way that could be helpful. At the same time, China also knows that Trump is very unpredictable, and this would see a return of a widening trade war that would hurt the Chinese economy. When it comes to Harris, the danger for China, is the predictability; the Biden administration's biggest success has globally has been deepening US alliances and partnerships and further isolating China. So if we're talking about security issues like the South China Sea, like Taiwan, then I certainly think that China would prefer Trump to Harris. On the economy, maybe they would prefer Harris to Trump. I don't think either of these candidates is gonna be a very good thing for China. China would prefer Harris on the economy, and Trump on security.”

“Pennsylvania is a bellwether state, and it's very unlikely that either candidate will win enough electoral votes to become president without [it]. It's possible that a few Puerto Ricans who were planning on voting for Trump would now be so angry that they would vote for Harris or not vote at all. A few thousand votes could be sufficient to swing the election result. That's just how tight this is.”

“With so much uncertainty, the best Taiwan can do for now is to brace for change. The biggest worry for [Taiwan] now is that maybe we cannot count on our first term experience with Trump because he's really unpredictable. In the case of a Harris win, and even if she follows most of Biden's policies, she will still have her own opinions. In her case, Taiwan has to be ready for the changes.”

“With trade protectionism back in vogue in Washington, DC, there have been hints at the probable trajectory of China policy under either a Trump or Harris presidency. The overall trajectory under both presidencies is not too bad, but the kind of impact it would have would be a bit more volatile under Trump. Regardless of who wins the election in November, reindustrialisation and improving the US manufacturing sector are the priority. They are both looking at protectionist measures. The main difference is Harris would be more consultative while Trump would be more unstable.”

“The theme is that Trump and Harris are turning the screws on China and Taiwanese firms are going to have to adapt. There will be some that benefit and some that will be hurt, but they will all have to adapt.”

“Harris always knew she would have to fight hard for the state of Wisconsin. Of the last six presidential races, four of them have been decided in Wisconsin by under 25,000 votes. After Harris replaced Biden as the Democratic presidential candidate in August, her poll numbers really shot up, and she opened up a lead - but Trump has since recovered lost ground. I suspect that on election night, we'll be talking about one of these candidates winning by a very small margin.”

“Michigan has one of the, if not the, highest concentrations of Arab and Muslim voters in the United States, and it's a swing state. These are people who have real, direct, ongoing contact with their families in Gaza, the West Bank, and Lebanon, who are hearing what's happening and are angry-very angry. The Harris campaign faces a tough choice because Israel remains overwhelmingly popular but increasingly unpopular, especially as this war grows more unpopular with Democrats and many, though not all, independents. Trying to thread the needle between her supporters who back Israel and her potential supporters, who are often personally affected by these ongoing wars and are therefore deeply angry about the Biden administration's support for Israel.”

“It's not a question of age, because Trump remains energetic. It's a matter of focus and message discipline, because he [Donald Trump] has to convince the few remaining undecided voters that Harris is not only too liberal, but that he also has a real grasp on tackling problems that families are having today.”

“On the sidelines of the [Ambrosetti] Forum in Italy, I met with a delegation of the US Congress. We talked, in particular, about the victory plan for Ukraine - about some of its details, and we will present all the steps to US President Biden and both presidential candidates, Trump and Harris, in full. Our main focus now, at the beginning of the fall, is to strengthen the positions of Ukraine and Ukrainians as much as possible, protect our cities and villages from Russian terror, and, of course, provide more capabilities for our warriors on the frontlines.”

“Harris, I'm sure, is being advised in relation to things like tone and showing emotion and reaction to Trump's types of goading. Because women are more often subjected to claims that they're overly emotional. There are stereotypical tropes of Black women being angry that she is surely aware of, and you can see evidence in the way that she, very calmly, often in these types of settings, responds.”

“Harris has been trying to avoid the issue [the war on Gaza] so far because she views it as a political Catch-22; if she comes out in strong support of one side, she will be criticised. At some point, she will have to be clearer in her stance, as right now, it's difficult to discern her policies from those of Republican candidate Donald Trump. However, Americans don't usually vote on foreign policy. A fraction of voters care deeply about the issue, but it will not be enough to tip the elections.”

“At this point in mid-summer, before America really focuses on this election, which usually happens the first week in September, it looks like Trump clearly is in the lead. There are at least six, maybe seven, states which Joe Biden won against Trump in 2020 where the Democrats are now trailing Donald Trump. Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania are absolutely critical for victory in November. So despite Biden's endorsement of Harris, the party will also be strongly considering potential candidates with ties to key states.”
