<p>Daily Wire hosts, along with co-CEO Jeremy Boreing, discussed the state of the 2024 presidential race during a &#8220;<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/episode/daily-wire-backstage-tonight-7pm-et" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Backstage</a>&#8221; episode on Tuesday after a momentous week that included an assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump, as well as President Joe Biden&#8217;s decision to end his campaign and endorse Vice President Kamala Harris.</p>
<p>The episode began with Boreing and Daily Wire Editor Emeritus Ben Shapiro along with hosts Matt Walsh, Michael Knowles, and Andrew Klavan analyzing where Trump and Harris stand as they prepare for a short campaign against each other.</p>
<p>&#8220;This is a different race,&#8221; Shapiro said. &#8220;That doesn&#8217;t mean that Donald Trump doesn&#8217;t have the advantage. Donald Trump obviously does have the advantage at this point in time. If you look at the polling data, he&#8217;s running somewhere between one and two points in the national polling ahead of Kamala Harris.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;With all of that said, obviously he&#8217;s no longer running against a dead person,&#8221; Shapiro added. &#8220;And pretty much everybody had been expending their mental energy on the fact that Joe Biden is senile and incapable of holding his office, and now Kamala Harris is in there. And this race kind of looks like the dynamic that this race had before the first debate, before Joe Biden completely fell apart, which means that Donald Trump has an advantage, but it&#8217;s less of a massive advantage and more of a slight advantage.&#8221;</p>
<p>Knowles said that while the Democrats ousting Biden and propping Harris up as the presumptive nominee shows that the party was &#8220;desperate,&#8221; it also serves as a reminder that the Democratic Party will do &#8220;whatever it takes&#8221; to win an election.</p>
<p>&#8220;We shouldn&#8217;t underestimate how formidable that political force is,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p><strong><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/show/scamala-kamala-harris-unmasked" target="_blank" rel="noopener">WATCH BEN SHAPIRO’S ‘SCAMALA: KAMALA HARRIS UNMASKED’ ON DAILYWIRE+</a></strong></p>
<p>Boreing agreed that Harris shouldn&#8217;t be underestimated by conservatives and Republicans.</p>
<p>&#8220;She has, in fact, found herself in a position, never having received a single popular vote in a Democratic primary, she finds herself her party&#8217;s nominee to be president,&#8221; Boreing said. &#8220;And as we learned in 2016, if you are the nominee, you can win.&#8221;</p>
<p>Boreing added that with Harris as the presumptive nominee, &#8220;there&#8217;s a huge wave of new voter enthusiasm [that] completely changes the game.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s unfair,&#8221; he said. &#8220;They basically got to the last inning of the game, realized that their opponent was far, far ahead, and then they just called a complete reset — fundamentally changed the rules of the game, fundamentally changed the competition, but that is the reality that is before us.&#8221;</p>
<p>Boreing said that Trump, his campaign, and &#8220;everyone who wants Trump to be the next president&#8221; must &#8220;do the work to get him elected.&#8221;</p>
<p>Walsh also agreed that conservatives should not underestimate Harris&#8217; threat to Trump&#8217;s election chances, and added that the legacy media&#8217;s role in the election could prove pivotal as well.</p>
<p>&#8220;Sometimes we like to wish cast and tell ourselves that corporate media is irrelevant, but they&#8217;re not,&#8221; Walsh said. &#8220;We saw what happened when they, along with the donor class and Democrat elites, decided they wanted to get rid of a sitting president. They did it in three weeks. So if they set out right now and they decide that, you know what, Kamala Harris is a transformational candidate, she&#8217;s a once-in-a-generation political figure, she&#8217;s going to be the first female president, she&#8217;s all these things. &#8230; If they decide they want to convince the public of that, they have a real ability to do that for a lot of people.&#8221;</p>
<p>Klavan chimed in and quipped, &#8220;I have to say that Kamala does have some strengths that actually are strengths. She hates Jews, she kills babies, and she bails out rioters. And those are things that the Democratic base not only likes, but they will make it less likely that the Democratic Convention is overrun by pro-Hamas Nazi protesters.&#8221;</p>
<p>At the end of the &#8220;Backstage&#8221; episode, Boreing <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/official-trailer-daily-wires-first-original-theatrical-release-am-i-racist-starring-matt-walsh?topStoryPosition=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">announced</a> the first Daily Wire original film set for a theatrical release, Walsh&#8217;s &#8220;Am I Racist?&#8221;</p>
<p>The trailer for the new Daily Wire film shows the host of &#8220;The Matt Walsh Show&#8221; dive headfirst into liberalism as a bumbling and zealous convert to the world of DEI.</p>
