Donald Trump is actually giving away this election, says pollster Frank Luntz

Frank Luntz, pollster and political strategist, joins 'Squawk Box' to discuss the state of the 2024 election, the demographic and intensity advantages Vice President Harris holds over former President Trump, what his focus groups have told him, and more.

@@havenhemmings3574 Frank Luntz is, infamously, a longtime conservative mouthpiece and self-identified Republican. He leans into focus group strata over broad polling because it favors the right and gives a more-intimate look at the mindset of voters. Calling him a lefty because he doesn't perfectly-align with the values of Trump as a monolith is wild. Luntz is an excellent political forecaster precisely *because* he is not a left-leaning social strategist.

How is that in any way "he should be winning"? Trump has nothing but racism, bigotry and tax cuts for the wealthy to offer to Americans. He should be polling below 10%, but there are an awful lot of racists and bigots in America, so he has that 30%, plus the morons that know nothing about anything but liked "The Apprentice", which bumps him up to be competitive.

During one of his trips to the Oval Office, Fred Trump claimed his uncle suggested those with disabilities “should just die.” He said a similar incident occurred on a phone call with Trump to tell him the medical fund set up by the family for William was running low. (Fred & Mary's inheritance was taken away from them by "other" family members) “Without hesitation [Trump] said, ‘Your son doesn’t recognize you. Let him die and move to Florida,'” Fred Trump said. “My response was, ‘No, Donald. He does recognize me.'” “Was I surprised?
