KAMALA Harris is “vacuous and pointless” - and election defeat would be down to her failure to tackle immigration, Piers Morgan has blasted.

The Sun columnist let rip at the Democratic candidate and tipped her Republican rival to reclaim the White House.

But as early results flooded in, the veteran telly host said “literally any result is possible, because everything is so tight”.

Speaking on a US special of Never Mind The Ballots, Piers said: “I think that underneath all the noise around this election, the two big issues are the economy, cost of living crisis and the crisis on the southern border with immigration. 

“And I think that on both of those issues, the American people, in all the polling I've seen, trust Trump a lot more than Harris to fix it. So if he wins, that will be where it’s won.”

VP Harris was tasked with cutting illegal immigration by Joe Biden, whose administration has seen the issue skyrocket. 

It comes as...

  • Donald Trump has won the presidential election in West Virginia, Indiana, and Kentucky, according to the .
  • Kamala Harris has won the election in Vermont, according to the AP.
  • Early exit polls revealed voters are concerned with democracy and the economy.
  • Trump expressed confidence in his campaign, calling it the "best" of the three.
  • Tech billionaire Elon Musk will reportedly join Trump and several of his top donors at an exclusive star-studded election night watch party at Mar-a-Lago.
  • Trump's running mate, JD Vance, voted for the former president at a Catholic church in Cincinnati, Ohio.
  • The Walz family is set to join Vice President Kamala Harris at her election night watch party at Howard University.
  • President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden will reportedly not attend Harris' evening event and will instead watch the election results from the White House.
  • Harris took over the airwaves in all seven swing states, making a final pitch to undecided voters in several radio interviews on Tuesday.
  • Polling locations across the US experienced technical issues, long lines, severe weather, and bomb threats.

Piers also lashed out at Harris for calling Trump a “fascist”, and revealed that just 150 protesters turned out at the Republican’s showstopper rally in New York last week.

He said: “So although they say he's the new Hitler. on the left, the reality is, if they did believe that, they would probably come out to protest.”

And - despite fears Trump’s supporters could kick off if their man loses - Piers warned the uproar would more likely come from “rank hypocrisy” Democrats.

Asked to sum up Trump - who he has known for years - Piers said he was “unpredictable, chaotic, brutally effective.”

For Harris, he said: “Insubstantial, vacuous and pointless.”

Harris appeared to stumble into a gaffe on election night amid accusations of faking a phone call with a voter to thank them for their support.

Footage shows the White House hopeful flash the camera app on her screen while apparently on a call.
