Kamala Harris’ handlers made a confession that left Democrats in a state of shock

Dec 3, 2024

Democrats are trying to come to grips with what happened on November 5.

The entire American Left thought Donald Trump was going to suffer a massive defeat.

And Kamala Harris’ handlers made a confession that left Democrats in a state of shock.

Kamala Harris high command admits they were losing the whole time

Kamala Harris’ campaign manager Jen O’Malley Dillon and chief advisors Stephanie Cutter and David Plouffe appeared on Pod Save America for a postmortem on the campaign.

The Pod Save America hosts are a group of former Obama aides that helped run the public relations campaign that helped force Joe Biden out of the race.

This show is the New York Times for left-wing political podcasts.

On the show, Kamala Harris’ handlers made a number of stunning admissions.

Chief among them was the confession by Plouffe that the campaign’s own polling never showed Kamala Harris in the lead.

“We were hopeful. I don’t know how optimistic we were, but we thought, OK, this is tied, and if a couple things break our way [we could win],” Plouffe said of the campaign’s view of the race.

“We didn’t get the breaks we needed on Election Day,” Plouffe added.

Polls released after the debate by CBS and NBC showed Kamala Harris holding four- and five-point leads over Donald Trump nationally.

Bloomberg showed Kamala up by five in Pennsylvania.

The Cook Political Report and Bloomberg found Kamala Harris up by three in Michigan.

Marquette University Law School’s poll had Kamala Harris up four over Trump in Wisconsin.

Plouffe explained that these polls were all a mirage as the campaign’s polling showed Trump in the lead the entire time.

“I think it surprised people, because there was these public polls that came out in late September, early October, showing us with leads that we never saw,” Plouffe said.

Lousy public polling affected campaign coverage, which falsely presented the race as a 50/50 contest.

But the media coverage also missed the mark because they took Plouffe’s public comments at face value. 

On November 1, Plouffe posted on X that the race was breaking Kamala Harris’ way.

Harris advisor’s comments proved it’s the Democrat Party that is the party of “missinfo” 

“It’s helpful, from experience, to be closing a Presidential campaign with late deciding voters breaking by double digits to you and the remaining undecideds looking more friendly to you than your opponent,” Plouffe wrote.

The night before the election Plouffe went on CNN and told viewers that the campaign’s view of the early vote data showed Kamala Harris positioned to sweep all seven battleground states.

“And just a couple hours ago reviewing all the early vote data, what we’re projecting for Election Day, how we think undecideds are breaking, we have a credible pathway to all seven states tomorrow night to go into Kamala Harris’ column,” Plouffe stated.

“Right, but you think you can win all seven?” host Erin Burnett asked in response.

“Yes,” Plouffe replied.

The press will take anything Democrats say at face value because reporters are their ideological allies, and they want to believe.

No campaign is going to come out and say they are losing.

But the question is why didn’t the media report more on what the internal data actually showed?

These numbers were out there.

Journalist Mark Halperin reported on them on a daily basis.

The press wouldn’t pursue this story because the media was afraid of reporting any truth they thought would help Donald Trump win.
