The incompetence of the Kamala Harris campaign is reaching comic levels, with her team now offering a buffet of bizarre excuses for their recent electoral defeat. In a recent appearance on the podcast “Pod Save America,” Harris’s aides illustrated a staggering disconnect from reality, attempting to shift blame onto the media for their failures while avoiding any honest introspection. Instead of admitting faults, they claimed the media was “mean” and even suggested that their inability to book interviews was a factor—despite finding time for less significant engagements. It seems taking responsibility is as foreign to them as reality is to a liberal college professor.
When faced with their donors and grassroots supporters, Harris and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz put on a rather self-satisfied display, oblivious to the need for genuine reflection and improvement. Comments from Democratic operative Lindy Li hinted at the obvious: a stark lack of accountability and awareness of their electoral missteps was on full display. It’s hard to figure out what’s more astounding: the fact that they appear so content in mediocrity or that they can’t see which way the political wind is blowing.

Enter John Morgan, a prominent Democratic donor, who laid bare the inadequacies of the Harris team during an interview on Fox News with Kayleigh McEnany. Morgan’s critique of Harris was nothing short of brutal. He declared that she lacked the political acumen and charisma of Barack Obama and viewed her candidacy as a “zero-sum game” tethered to the failing Biden administration. He astutely noted that the votes she secured were primarily cast against Donald Trump, not for her—a clear indication that her campaign was fundamentally flawed from the start.
Meanwhile, Trump’s approach to engaging voters took an intriguing turn when he followed the advice of his son Barron. By being open to unconventional media appearances, such as on podcasts and with Joe Rogan, Trump broadened his appeal and connected with younger voters in ways Harris could only dream of. This stark contrast highlights how Trump’s willingness to break the mold countered the image the liberal media painted of him. It showcased his personality and humor, which the Harris campaign desperately needs but seems incapable of understanding or emulating.
Morgan’s comments suggest that if anyone in the Harris camp had an ounce of strategic understanding, they would have prioritized appearances on platforms that could have widened their appeal instead of retreating to the echo chambers of liberal media. The notion that they avoided Rogan, despite his massive following, shows a lack of grasp on modern political outreach. With nearly two billion dollars spent on a losing campaign, one must wonder if they could manage a lemonade stand, let alone govern a country. Their track record indicates that not only did they fail to capture the presidency, but they also appear incapable of learning from the experience—making the future look even bleaker for their chances come 2024.
