Carville Blames 'The View' Interview for Kamala Harris's Election Loss

Nov 10, 2024, 03:17 PM

In the aftermath of the 2024 U.S. presidential election, political strategist James Carville attributed Vice President Kamala Harris's loss to a pivotal moment on the television show 'The View.' Carville cited a question posed by host Sunny Hostin as the turning point that ended Harris's campaign, describing it as "the most devastating answer you can imagine" and stating, "When we go back and history unearths this, it's going to be right there on 'The View.'" The Democratic Party's $500 million investment in Harris's campaign is now seen as a costly gamble that contributed to their defeat. As Harris prepares to address the nation on Wednesday, her quote during a speech—"many people are going to be sad about the results, but just know that it's going to be okay"—has drawn criticism and is considered scandalous by some commentators.
