Harris appears on SNL as shock poll gives her lead in Iowa: Election 2024 live

Kamala Harris made a surprise appearance on NBC’s Saturday Night Live alongside host John Mulaney and musical guest Chappell Roan.

The vice president’s flight from Charlotte to Detroit was diverted to New York, and a few hours later she appeared in the cold open as the reflection of Maya Rudolph who impersonates Harris on the show.

Meanwhile, a shocking new poll out of Iowa, a state in which neither candidate has campaigned, has put the Democratic candidate three points ahead of Donald Trump — a 12-point swing against the Republican since the 2020 election.

The Des Moines Register observes that much of the shift to Harris from the former president comes from women and independents. Approximately 20 percent of the voters in the Republican Iowa caucus backed Nikki Haley over Trump.

Earlier today, the former president said that “women have to be protected when they’re at home in suburbia” as he attempted to double down on his previous comment that he’d protect them “whether they like it or not.”

Some 70 million Americans have already voted early according to CNN. Both candidates spent Saturday in North Carolina keeping the focus on key battlegrounds as Election Day looms.

ICYMI: Cardi B tears into Trump at Harris rally

Rapper Cardi B hit out at Donald Trump during a rally for Kamala Harris, warnings voters the former president doesn’t believe women deserve rights.

Speaking at the event in Wisconsin on Friday, she bashed Trump for a recent comment he made this week stating: “I’m going to do it whether the women like it or not. I am going to protect them.”

Trump said his aides had urged him to stop using the term “protector” on the campaign trail because it was “inappropriate.” He then doubled down on the stance.

Trump camp reacts to Harris on SNL

Steven Cheung, communications director for the Trump campaign, reacted to Kamala Harris’s appearance on Saturday Night Live with the following statement:

Kamala Harris has nothing substantive to offer the American people, so that’s why she’s living out her warped fantasy cosplaying with her elitist friends on Saturday Night Leftists as her campaign spirals down the drain into obscurity. For the last four years, Kamala’s destructive policies have led to untold misery and hurt for all Americans. She broke it, and President Trump will fix it.
