Kamala Harris' Post-Election Fundraising Erodes Democratic Trust, Leaves Campaign $20M in Debt

Nov 30, 2024, 08:22 PM

Kamala Harris has continued to solicit campaign contributions from donors nearly a month after her election loss to Donald Trump, causing concern among Democrats. Reports indicate that her ongoing fundraising efforts, described as 'urgent' and 'begging', are eroding trust within the Democratic Party. The Harris campaign, which spent $1.5 billion over a 15-week campaign, is now $20 million in debt. Some Democrats are urging her to stop these fundraising efforts, fearing they could damage her political future and the party's image. There are also concerns about the campaign's self-congratulatory attitude despite the loss, with donors expressing dissatisfaction with 'Obama World' for pushing Biden to step down, which indirectly led to Harris's candidacy.
