Why Vice President Harris Lost.
How could Vice President Harris Lose?
James Carville: “It’s the economy stupid.”
President Reagan: “Are you better off today than four years ago?”
It’s the economy, inflation, immigration, ignorance, incompetence, arrogance, crime, DEI, elitism.
How could Vice President Harris lose?
She outspent President Trump, $1.2 billion, almost 2:1. She had the support of Silicon Valley. She had the rabid support of the mainstream media. The Academic world was a booster. Her campaign focused on identity politics, slicing and dicing the American populace, forgetting that we are all Americans.
The elites backed her.
She was young, empathetic.
She is an avid supporter of abortion rights.
Her cheerleaders included the Obamas, Clintons, Taylor Swift, and Hollywood celebrities.
The Democratic Party was unified behind her.
Her talking points were vetted through focus groups.
The Biden Administration buying student votes by cancelling student loans.
Climate change is a major concern for young voters, but jobs are a larger concern for college grads.
Factcheckers, who often needed their fact checking, facr checked, routinly hammered President Trump.
Lawfare would destroy Trump – federal indictments in Florida and D.C., state indictments in Florida and New York, convictions through a New York City who violated basic constitutional rights and rules of law, monster fraud penalty by another New York judge, unsupportable civil defamation verdicts by another judge, and Colorado trying to keep him off the Ballot.
All to no avail.
Her strategists focused on women, abortionn(reproductive rights) Blacks, especially women, Asian Americans, climate change, Hispanics, and Arab Americans. She insulted half the American populace.
She was defying history. Only two vice-presidents have been directly elected president at the end of their president’s term of office: Martin Van Buren in 1836 and George H.W. Bush in 1988. Both lost re-election.
The problem for Veeps is that they have to run against the sins of their president. President Biden is currently rated worse than President Carter. Vice President Harris said she couldn’t think of anything she would do different than President Biden. That was doubling down on failure.
President Biden’s goal of being a transformative president resulted in an attempt to radically transform America with the program of the radical left wing of the Democratic Party. President Biden is transforming American Politics by shattering the Democratic coalition put together by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
The American people do not identify with wokeness and DEI, speech codes, pronouns, cancel culture. The majority of Americans are White. Accusing them of White Privilege, male and female, is counter-productive.
Favoring Arabs over Jews does not play well in the United States. Donald Trump outpolled Kamala Harris in Dearborn, Michigan.
She refused to appear at the Annual Al Smith Memorial Dinner fundraiser for Catholic Charities in New York. The last Democrat who failed to appear was Vice President Hubert Humphrey in 1980. Trump won 54% of the Catholic vote in 2024.
Defunding the police is not a winning proposition. Neither is providing funds to rioters.
It’s the economy. The rate of inflation may be dropping, but the inflation prices remain in the supermarket. Gas is high. Crime is high. Homelessness is high. Interest rates are high. Vehicle prices are high. The private sector is stagnating while government employment is up. Open borders have spread throughout the country. Trans competing in women’ sports is not popular.
Abortion rights were a major flashpoint in 2022, but not so much in 2024.
She promised to raise taxes, on the rich. Americans know better.
Don’t blame it on President Joe Biden. He made a Faustian Bargain with Senator Bernie Sanders to win the Democratic nomination and the Presidency. The good news for Vice President Harris is that she probably did better than President Biden would have.
The poo-bars of the Democratic Party knew he was in rapid decline, but they lied to prop him up. Their plan was to reelect President Biden, and then have him resign or be pushed out in 2025, letting Kamala Harris become President Harris. The Democrats were hoisted on their own petard with President Biden.
All she lacked was the American people.

When Did Vice President Harris Lose the election?
When Did Vice President Kamala Harris Lose the Election?

Predictions for the November 5, 2024 Elections
Caveat – If either President Trump or Vice President Harris wins by a large margin, then most of this post is irrelevant, or "garbage" to quote President Biden.
Once again the pollsters will be wrong.
If the election is close, the losing party will unleash a flood of lawyers on America; Judge will mostly be unsympathetic to the lawsuits. The Supreme Court would prefer to stay out of the melee, but might not be able to do so.
The Lawyer ads will replace the political ads on TV.
If the margin of victory is razor slim, then America will remain even more bitterly divided.
Alternative A: President Trump Ekes Out a Narrow Win
Psychotherapists will be working overtime for months.
Peaceful demonstrations and marches will ensue, but so too will bloody riots.
Universities will offer counseling to their students.
Some, perhaps led by prominent Democrats, will attempt to disqualify President Trump under the Insurrection Clause of the 14th Amendment. Disqualification for federal office, extends House of Representatives, Senate, or hold any office, civil or military” of the United States if they engaged in resurrection against the United States.
Vice President Harris could conceivably become President by default.
That will end America’s democracy.
The ensuing legal and political conflict would make the Bush-Gore spectacle of 2000 look like child’s play.
The celebrities threatening to leave the United States if Trump wins will stay.
Vice President Harris will join Governor Michael Dukakis (Who?). Where are they now?
CNN and MSNBC will see a surge in viewership.
The Jewish vote in America outweighs the Arab vote.
The resistance already has a plan in place: Send in the lawyers.
Alternative B: Vice President Harris Ekes Out a Narrow Win
Many will remember the late election night activity of the battleground states in 2020. Philadelphia is notorious for “walking around” money.
President Trump will not fade into the background.
President Biden spent his time eating ice cream and biking along the beach.
Vice President Harris spent her time hobnobbing with the rich and famous in Brentwood. Will she move the scene to D.C. or commute to LaLa Land?
The Peter Principle in Action.
The next four years will result in national angst.
Many Americans will look fondly back at the Presidency of the senile Joe Biden.
Fox News will become more outspoken.
