Instead of backing Harris, the Border Patrol Union threw their support behind Donald Trump. For Gutfeld, this turn of events underscores Harris’ failure in her role, raising questions about her leadership and ability to manage the southern border crisis effectively.
The Border Patrol’s rejection of Kamala Harris is part of a broader trend. Traditionally, unions have been the backbone of Democratic campaigns, as their financial support through union dues has long helped the party remain competitive. But now, even prominent unions like the Firefighters and Teamsters are choosing to endorse Donald Trump, signaling a deeper problem for Harris and the Democrats.
What’s particularly notable about these defections is the gender dynamic at play. Gutfeld pointed out that the workers abandoning Harris are in traditionally male-dominated professions—firefighters, truck drivers, and border patrol agents. These are roles that require physical strength and are often associated with masculinity, a factor that may be influencing the shift in support.
Gutfeld took the opportunity to add some humor to this observation, saying, “She should’ve been a shoo-in, like me for best abs at the Teen Choice Awards. I got robbed.” But the deeper point was clear: “It’s mostly men fleeing traditional male jobs—cops, firemen, Teamsters—jobs that often involve serious physical labor or upper body strength.”
For Harris, losing support from these groups presents a significant challenge, as it reveals a gender gap in her voter base that the Democratic Party has struggled to address.
Another issue that further alienated Harris from the Border Patrol was her handling of a viral photograph showing an agent on horseback attempting to stop a Haitian migrant from crossing the border. The photo, which caused an uproar, was falsely interpreted by Harris and her allies in the media as showing the agent using a whip against the migrant. This mischaracterization led to widespread condemnation, including from Harris herself, who appeared on “The View” to describe the image as reminiscent of slavery.
“Human beings should not be treated that way,” Harris claimed. “It also invoked images of some of the worst moments of our history, where that kind of behavior has been used against the Indigenous people of our country, it has been used against African Americans during times of slavery.”
Her comments further estranged her from the very agents she was supposed to lead, adding another layer of controversy to her tenure as border czar. For many, her reaction to the incident appeared more politically motivated than fact-based, further damaging her credibility.

In closing, Gutfeld emphasized how Harris’ failure to secure union endorsements—particularly from male-dominated sectors—highlights a broader gender problem within the Democratic Party. “All of these Border Patrol officers fleeing their jobs will be joining a herd of others fleeing their life’s work because they know the Dems don’t want them doing it,” he stated. Gutfeld’s analysis suggests that Harris’ struggle to connect with male voters, especially those in physically demanding jobs, is a glaring issue for the Democrats heading into future elections.
With Harris’ presidential aspirations on shaky ground, and a growing divide between her and key groups of voters, her campaign faces an uphill battle. Greg Gutfeld’s scathing critique of Harris’ performance serves as a reminder that the Vice President’s journey to higher office may be far from the smooth path once imagined.
