From Fox News: Some Democratic politicians are openly questioning their party’s damaged brand after losing again to President-elect Donald Trump, according to a new report.
“I don’t know if Trump is a stable genius, but he’s a f—ing genius,” Biden fundraiser John Morgan told Politico. “He tapped into something the Republicans never saw, which was anger and populism on that side.”
Trump’s victory in the 2024 election has prompted soul-searching among Democrats after the party was sent reeling following a series of electoral setbacks. Republicans recaptured the White House and both chambers of Congress just four years after losing power in 2020.
As a result, some Democratic Party donors and political strategists are taking independent tickets and other alternatives to traditional party branding more seriously, per Politico.
Last month, Morgan blasted Kamala Harris’s campaign during a Fox News interview, and said she can never run for president again.
“She should go away and never come back… if you can’t run the campaign, you damn sure can’t run the country,” he declared.
Morgan said, “Barron Trump is lot smarter than everybody in the Harris Campaign.”
