Democrats Get Dramatic After Kamala Loss – Blame Biden

Democrats are still reeling after Donald Trump’s landslide victory…

Democrats are turning on Joe Biden after Vice President Kamala Harris‘ loss to the former President.

They say his advancing age, questions over his mental acuity and deep unpopularity put Democrats at a huge disadvantage. According to reports from Politico, Democrats are livid that they were forced to embrace a candidate who voters had made clear they did not want — and then stayed in the race long after it was clear he couldn’t win.

“He shouldn’t have run,” said Jim Manley, a top aide to former Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid. “This is no time to pull punches or be concerned about anyone’s feelings. He and his staff have done an enormous amount of damage to this country.”

“He’s a good man who can be proud of his accomplishments. But his legacy is in tatters,” Manley said. “The country is headed in a very dangerous direction and it’s due in part to his arrogance.”

“She ran an extraordinary campaign with a very tough hand that was handed to her,” Mark Longabaugh, a Democratic strategist and former adviser to Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), said of Harris. “The truth of the matter is, Biden should have stepped aside earlier and let the party put together a longer game plan.”

“There was a Biden weariness,” James Zogby, a three-decade veteran of the Democratic National Committee, said of the shift among the electorate in recent years. “And he hung on too long.”

Senior Harris campaign advisor David Plouffe also seemingly blamed Biden for Kamala’s poor Election Day performance.

In what many perceived as a swipe at Biden, Plouffe wrote on X: “We dug out of a deep hole but not enough. A devastating loss.”

Plouffe dismantled his X account late Wednesday after receiving backlash for his remarks.

According to Fox News White House senior correspondent Jacqui Heinrich one source in the Biden camp branded Plouffe a “sanctimonious ass” and another told her the tweet was “unproductive” – adding: “Joe Biden is the President of the United States and won without [Plouffe]. He successfully beat Donald Trump – something [Plouffe] never did.”
