“A lot of people got rich because of donors trying to stop Trump. And I think this disqualifies her forever. Forever. If she can't run a campaign, she can't run America. I can't do that. That was the first day's discussion. That's why it was terrible,” Morgan told host Chris Cuomo. “Look, I think she did a good job in the debate. I think she did as great a job as you could hope for in a short amount of time.”
“I've said it, and I've said it to everyone, she shouldn't have been a candidate. She wasn't going to win. And she didn't win, and she lost badly.” ” he continued. “So she has to think about her life…They said she was on the phone with donors this week about her political future.”I don't think she has a political future. ”
Mr. Cuomo asked “how terrible” campaign finance was for the future of the Democratic Party, to which Mr. Morgan replied: “It's terrible.”
“She can't be trusted with money,” he added.

“As of Election Day, there were no outstanding debts or past due bills,” Stauffer said. said Bloomberg.
Political analyst Mark Halperin also raised questions Monday about Harris' future in politics.
“Given her performance, I think it would be foolish for people to take the question of whether she is the right person to run for president out of the equation. She has run twice now, but neither I think it's the responsibility of the media and the Democratic Party to have an honest and fair discussion about whether this is the right role for her. Because it’s 2-2,” Halperin said. .
Harris has told aides to maintain political flexibility as she considers whether to run for president again in 2028 or campaign for California governor in 2026. Harris' inner circle includes five people. said Politico.
