    I think Trump is doing quite well on the race. I think he's got a more better than not shot of winning.

    My gut is that the election is tilting toward the Republicans, but I need to emphasize again to you that Harris could win.

    In Florida, Republicans have outpaced Democrats by so much that if Florida were all in the Eastern time zone, the state would be called as soon as the polls close on Election Night. There's just no way for Democrats to overcome what is happening to them there.

    Look, first of all, I am very confident that Vice President Harris is going to win this election. ... I do believe she's going to be the next president of the United States. ... And so I'm confident that he's going to be defeated next week.

    Graphic six, you take a look at North Carolina. Your home state smug, it's got on. It's got a lead. I'm very confident in North Carolina in large part because when it breaks, it breaks late and it breaks over the last ten years decisively Republican. There is no reason in this great state of North Carolina that anybody would be voting Kamala Harris... I feel good about that.
