CBS’s Adrianna Diaz recently visited several restaurants in Nevada, aiming to get a sense of what people think about the upcoming 2024 election. Diaz stopped by eateries in Reno, North Las Vegas, and Pahrump, but what she discovered shocked her: hardly anyone had anything good to say about Kamala Harris, and many expressed excitement about Donald Trump, as reported by Real Clear Politics.

At a Reno barbecue joint, a group of women gathered around their table to chat about immigration. Their stance was crystal clear. "People are coming here for asylum? Baloney. They're coming here for the freebies," one of them remarked, summing up the frustration many Americans feel about unchecked immigration policies.

In North Las Vegas, a man dining at a Mexican restaurant voiced his irritation with inflation, using tacos as a prime example. “Tacos used to be what? A dollar, a dollar fifty? After the pandemic, they don’t go under three dollars.” His comment cuts right to the heart of the issue: the rising cost of living has hit everyone, and working-class folks are feeling the pinch.

Pahrump wasn’t any different. At a local diner, a woman criticized the government’s reckless spending and inflation woes. “I think they think if they keep throwing money at it, it will fix the problem. It’s the same as an old house, oh, let’s just keep fixing it. Sometimes the solution is to tear it down and rebuild.” Her sentiment echoed the dissatisfaction with Washington’s failed policies.

The Trump campaign didn’t miss the opportunity to highlight Diaz’s findings, as her reporting painted a picture that most of the diners were overwhelmingly pro-Trump.

During an appearance on CBS This Morning, Diaz said, “What was really incredible is in every single restaurant, of the people willing to talk to us, we could only find one Harris supporter in every restaurant—and we left no stone unturned. I approached every single person, except for this one guy… But people are really excited about Trump.”
