Kamala Harris got the shock of her life last week when Donald Trump trounced her in the presidential election. Heading into Election Day, Harris and her supporters seemingly thought that there was no way that she could lose to Trump.
Instead, Trump ended up destroying Harris not only with the Electoral College but also in the popular vote. It has since been claimed that despite allegedly raising $1 billion, Harris fell $20 million in debt during the final week of her campaign.
In a desperate attempt to get out of this hole, Harris has stooped to a new low. Indeed, she is still allegedly shaking down her donors for cash days after she lost to Trump.
From The Daily Caller:
Harris’ campaign has bombarded supporters with fundraising messages following her election day defeat, with the most recent being sent out Sunday night, according to emails obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation. Each email claims, using slightly different language, that the “Harris Fight Fund” is collecting donations to fund legal efforts and recount initiatives to help Democrats in close congressional races.“First and foremost, we want to acknowledge the fear, confusion and sadness many of you are feeling at this moment,” one of Harris’ post-election emails reads. “As you read this, there are U.S. Senate and House races that are either too close to call, or within the margin of recounts or certain legal challenges. Can you please rush a contribution to the Harris Fight Fund program today?”
This message includes a donation link that sends potential donors to the ActBlue page for the Harris Victory Fund.
The day after she handily lost the election to Trump, the Harris campaign sent an email to her supporters. In this email, the campaign begged them for money.
“The outcome of this election is not what we wanted,” that email read. “I will never give up the fight for a future where every American can pursue their dreams. Where the women of America have the freedom to make decisions about their own bodies. The fight to protect our students and our streets from gun violence. The fight for our democracy.”
Harris’ concluded by asking her supports to give Democrats the money to elect candidates “down the ticket to hold the Trump administration accountable.”
Trump Responds
Trump fired back on Sunday night by saying that he is “surprised” that Harris’ campaign blew through so much money.
“Now they are being squeezed by vendors and others. Whatever we can do to help them during this difficult period, I would strongly recommend we, as a Party and for the sake of desperately needed UNITY, do,” Trump said. “We have a lot of money left over in that our biggest asset in the campaign was ‘Earned Media,’ and that doesn’t cost very much. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”
This all just goes to show that Democrats made a mistake in counting on Harris from the very beginning. Only someone as unlikable and unelectable as her could blow through $1 billion and end up $20 million in debt while still losing the election.
In the end, many of Harris’ voters are such mindless followers that they likely will continue donating to her campaign. By shaking them down in this way, Harris is just showing the lack of respect that she’s had for their intelligence all along!
Key Takeaways:
- Harris is still asking for donations after she lost to Trump.
- Despite raising $1 billion, the Harris campaign ended up $20 million in debt.
- Trump claims to still have donation money left over.
