Harris supporters blame Biden for vice president's election defeat

Kamala Harris' significant defeat in the recent election has led to frustration among her supporters, who blame President Joe Biden for not stepping aside earlier. Many believe his decision to run for reelection until July contributed to the party's loss. Biden, who has faced criticism over his age and the economy, ended his campaign after a poor debate performance. His departure allowed Harris to take over, but she struggled to differentiate her platform from his, limiting her appeal. As Democrats regroup, they face a challenging landscape with Republicans likely controlling the White House and Senate. Some party members feel that an earlier transition could have allowed for a more competitive primary and a stronger candidate.
