NBC’s Andrea Mitchell Says ‘Misogynation’ from ‘Black and White Men’ is Helping Trump and Tanking Harris

 

NBC’s Andrea Mitchell claimed “misogynation” could be responsible for Vice President Kamala Harris’s poor poll numbers among men of various ethnicities on Sunday’s edition of Meet the Press.

Mitchell joined a panel moderated by network anchor Kristen Welker to discuss concerns among Democrats that Vice President Kamala Harris is at a disadvantage against former President Donald Trump with four weeks until the election.

On the topic of whether Harris and her running mate Tim Walz need to be more visible to voters, Mitchell commented on Harris’s troubling poll numbers among men. She said:

I think they’ve got to double down on more interviews and serious interviews because what I’m hearing from Democratic and Republican business people and a lot of men – and she’s got such a big problem with men – I think there’s an undercount of the Trump vote. I think that there’s misogynation in all of this, Black and White men – big problem. But also in the business world, they don’t think she is serious. They don’t think she’s a heavyweight, and a lot of this is gender. But she’s got to be more specific about her economic plans.

Welker then asked PBS News’s Amna Nawaz for her take on the gender gap and the coming election. Nawaz said:

It’s huge. It’s the largest we’ve had in modern history and it’s getting bigger with time. Look, for people who know who they’re going to bake for, we know like 80 percent of registered voters are kind of baked in. Right? The latest PBS News poll now shows some 20 percent of folks say they’re swayable in some way, 15 percent say I think I know who I’m voting for, but I might change my mind. Five percent say I don’t know who I’m voting for. I think that the things they’re looking for at this stage of the game, there’s no one big event, right, that’s going to change people’s minds one way or the other. It comes down to the issues.
