Axios' Alex Thompson said Monday that there could be some "subtle finger pointing" within Vice President Kamala Harris' campaign if polling gets worse for them, noting some tension within the Harris team.

"These polls in Kamala Harris‘ world are really sort of keeping together this campaign. Because this campaign, this is not the ideal way to run a presidential campaign, you know, entering just a few months ago. And then none of these, a lot of these people, are not people that she hired that are on this campaign. It's sort of a combination of Biden people, who she doesn‘t totally trust, her own people, plus all these Obama 2012 operatives," Thompson said during an appearance on "CNN This Morning."

While Harris has surged in national polling, new swing state polling from the New York Times/Siena College shows former President Trump leading in key states such as Georgia, North Carolina, and Arizona.

"As long as the polls are good, then things are going to keep going well. But if the polling ever turns south, there are a lot of, sort of, subtle tensions within this world, and you could start seeing some subtle finger pointing. Now that being said, they’re going to keep saying, ‘we are the underdog, we are the underdog, we are the underdog,’ that is their talking point," Thompson said.
