John Morgan is a major donor to the Democrats and like many people in his party right now, he is unhappy about the way the Kamala Harris campaign burned through more than a billion dollars with little to show for it.
Morgan is now claiming that he never wanted Harris to be the 2024 Democratic nominee. He also suggests that no matter what she says about future runs for office, she is finished.
He recently appeared on FOX News to discuss this. Transcript via Real Clear Politics:
She can never run for president again. She ran once and got zero delegates. She got 8% of California.I begged them not to put her up. She was going to be tethered to Biden no matter what. That was a zero-sum game for her.But she thought that all these votes were for her. They were not. The votes that she got were people voting against Trump, and the votes that Trump got were the people voting for Trump.What the Harris campaign should have done instead of avoiding Joe Rogan and podcasts, it turns out that Barron Trump, who looks like a runway model, was telling his father, you need to go on podcasts. You need to go on Joe Rogan. He was three hours late to a rally because he was doing Joe Rogan because that was so important.So Barron Trump is a lot smarter than everybody in the Harris—they said they didn’t go on Joe Rogan. The progressives around you heard what Carmel said. The progressives didn’t want to go on Joe Rogan.Look, if I’m running, I’m going on Joe Rogan. I’m living on Fox. That’s how you change minds. They played hide-the-ball. They lost badly. She should go away and never, ever come back. She spent almost $2 billion. They’re raising money this week to pay off the debt. If you can’t run your campaign, you damn sure can’t run the country.

Morgan had a very similar message a few days ago while speaking to Chris Cuomo on NewsNation:
“All of a sudden, everybody’s got the keys to the candy store, ad buyers, talent consultants. There’s 100 days to do it, and the money started pouring in,” Morgan said, adding that “ego” and a “crazy” desire to obtain commissions on placed ads drove much of the spending.It included $15 million for “event production,” $4 million in private jets and an additional $1 million to Oprah’s company, among other pricy purchases.When asked if Morgan believes someone possibly stole the money, he said, “Maybe legally.”He added that the reported $1.5 billion spent in four months is proof that Harris shouldn’t run again.“I think this disqualifies her forever,” Morgan said. “If you can’t run a campaign, you can’t run America.”
Here’s the clip:
This is going to create a funding problem for Democrats going forward. Who is going to give them money after watching the way the Harris campaign squandered a fortune?
