Harris allies blame Biden for her loss to Trump in 2024 election
Allies of Vice President Kamala Harris are blaming President Joe Biden for her significant loss to Donald Trump in the 2024 election. They argue that Biden's decision to run for reelection until July contributed to the party's defeat. Critics within the Democratic Party express frustration that Biden did not recognize earlier concerns about his age and effectiveness. Polls indicated that many voters felt he was too old to serve another term, which may have impacted Harris's campaign. Harris's supporters believe she needed more time to differentiate herself from Biden and present her own vision. The compressed campaign schedule limited her ability to connect with voters, leaving the party in a challenging position as Republicans prepare to take control of the White House and Senate.
