Kamala Harris' failure to win the presidential election despite a $1.5 billion war chest “disqualifies” her from running again, a major Democratic donor claims in a new interview. .
The 60-year-old vice president's unsuccessful campaign burned through a reported huge sum of money in just over 100 days, including millions of dollars spent on advertising and celebrity-attended events.
“I think this disqualifies her forever,” said megadonor John Morgan. NewsNation's Chris Cuomo said Monday. “If you can't campaign, you can't run America.”
“The same thing will continue for the rest of Harris' career. She won't be able to trust money, and donors will be like, 'Where is this money?'” Law firm Morgan said the founder of &Morgan.
Mr Morgan's shocking comments came as he described the missing $1.5 billion as a “Mad Max”-esque event, as the funds could have been “legally” stolen.
“Suddenly, everyone has the keys to the candy store: ad buyers, talent, consultants. Within 100 days, the money starts flowing in,” said a Florida personal injury lawyer.
Morgan said the money was donated not for Harris, but for someone other than Donald Trump, who is now president-elect.
“It didn't flow to Harris, it flowed to Trump,” he said. “Everyone who voted and supported Harris was actually voting against Trump, and everyone who was for Trump was actually voting for Trump.”
Morgan also pointed to particularly high expenses. The Harris campaign spent $900,000 plastering the vice president's face on the Las Vegas Globe, but Harris ultimately lost in Nevada.
Overall, the campaign's ad spend amounted to a whopping $494 million.
“If you don't advertise, buyers don't get paid,” Morgan added. “Ego, crazy, commission.”
“There were a lot of whispers, a lot of names of people who got paid, people who got rich because of donors trying to stop Trump,” Morgan said of the “whispers” he heard while in the White House. There are a lot of them,” he said. Friday dinner.
Morgan criticized Harris' campaign as “terrible” even though she did a “good job” in the debate. “I told everyone she shouldn't have been a candidate, she wasn't going to win and she couldn't win. She lost badly,” one disgruntled donor said. .
Morgan asked Harris to “think about her own life” after the lame-duck vice president skipped a White House meeting and flew to Hawaii. President Joe Biden bid farewell to donors.
Mr. Morgan said Mr. Biden only named him second-in-command after he reluctantly resigned in July, calling him “an asshole” to those who had pushed him to resign.
“He didn't want to go and he didn't go gently. He basically nominated her,” Morgan said.
Other prominent Democrats, including former President Barack Obama and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who is seen as the person behind pushing Biden out of the race, did not immediately endorse Harris as the party's nominee. Ta.
“Obama didn't want her. President Obama didn't support her for five days. Pelosi didn't want her. “No meetings, no caucuses, no conventions,” Pelosi told the California delegation. It's going to happen,''' Morgan added.
Despite not voting for Harris in the primary, Morgan rejected the idea of democracy, and before electing Harris, the Democratic Party, which has the pillars of “democracy, democracy, democracy,” ridiculed the strategy of
He also said that Biden's endorsement of Harris was an “F-you” to Pelosi, Obama and “all the members of Congress who were trying to get rid of her.”
“If we hadn't been able to rescue him that Sunday, we would have had an avalanche next week,” Morgan said. “And I think he was angry.”
