After raising more than $1 billion, the Kamala Harris campaign is expected to end up with millions of dollars of debt once it’s done paying vendor invoices. The debt will likely get passed along to the Democratic National Committee and could burden the party as it works to rebuild after its catastrophic election season.
President-elect Donald Trump is already scoring political points over the Democrats’ debt issues. Over the weekend, Trump wrote on Truth Social, “Whatever we can do to help them during this difficult period, I would strongly recommend we, as a Party and for the sake of desperately needed UNITY, do. We have a lot of money left over in that our biggest asset in the campaign was ‘Earned Media,’ and that doesn’t cost very much.”
You’ve probably heard already about some of the Harris campaign’s most outlandish splurges, like the $1 million it paid to the media company of surrogate Oprah Winfrey, or running ads on the Las Vegas Sphere, or spending six figures to build a set for the “Call Her Daddy” podcast while declining to appear for free on the Joe Rogan podcast.
Can we please fire all of these consultants. Every single one. Fire everyone at the DNC while we’re at it
Let’s take a one step further and completely dismantle the DNC. They’re obsolete and need to go the way of the dodo bird.
I’m inclined to agree. If an entity is wasting hundreds of millions on a couple of consultants, the problem isn’t the consultants. It’s the people who decided that was a perfectly acceptable expense. If the DNC willingly takes on that debt, they’re not any better.
