As Twitchy reported earlier Wednesday, it seems it's the Trump campaign that's getting a bump from the Democratic National Convention, according to Polymarket:

There's so much joy in the air with the DNC going on this week, but Newsweek reports that perhaps that joy isn't being reflected in the polls. According to a new poll, Donald Trump leads Kamala Harris is every battleground state.

The survey, conducted by Navigator Research between July 31 and August 8, showed the Democratic presidential nominee and former President Donald Trump are tied in Michigan, North Carolina and Wisconsin, while Harris is behind in Arizona and Pennsylvania.

In the 2020 Presidential Election, Joe Biden carried Arizona, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, while Donald Trump defeated Biden in North Carolina.

However, the states are now neck and neck, according to Navigator Research.

Why would Newsweek release this propaganda this week? To spoil everyone's joy?

Same as the number of interviews she's given and votes she's received.

And so it begins in earnest, and during the DNC no doubt. That's how it starts.....the fever, the rage, the feeling of powerlessness that turns Democrats....into dementocrats. Peaked too soon? Never peaked at all? What happened to Cook Political's polls? Oh yeah, too old.…

That happens when you never win a single primary vote.

She’s going to lose big. Don’t buy the hype.

Harris has run for president before, in 2020, and it didn't go too well for her. Not to mention that she stabbed Joe Biden in the back during the primary debates and then knifed him again by taking his nomination.

Damn, this is Newsweek folks.

Happens, she's incredibly unlikeable.

Her husband said at the DNC Tuesday night that he loved her laugh.

Oh no, who is Obama going to replace her with?

Where is the love? Where is the joy? Where is the press conference?

Where is Doug? Where is the nanny? Where is Tinkerbell Tim?

Wow, Newsweek isn't faking the news. What happened.

Seriously, Newsweek runs the risk of losing its dozens of subscribers over this kind of partisan reporting.
