A furious former Biden staffer blamed Kamala Harris and the Democratic Party for his election loss.
MSNBC’s Symone Sanders-Townsend appeared on Morning Joe on Wednesday to discuss President-elect Donald Trump’s landslide election victory.
The former advisor to President Biden and Harris said ousting Biden from the election was one of the reasons Harris lost the election.
‘People who said Joe Biden was the problem… Where’s my camera?’ Sanders-Townsend said:
“I’ll just point out that it’s probably not the best idea for the Democrats to have orchestrated a stab fest, a proverbial stabbing in the forehead of the sitting president of the United States of America, and then not used it in his hometown of Scranton. Pennsylvania!’

Sanders-Townsend clarified that she believed Harris “left it all on the field,” but added that she has “an indictment on part of the strategy.”
Biden dropped out of 2024 in July after facing pressure from the Party following a disastrous debate performance against Trump and questions about his cognitive abilities.
Trump was elected the 47th president on Wednesday, an extraordinary comeback for a former president who refused to accept defeat four years ago, sparked a violent insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, was convicted of felonies and survived two assassination attempts. .

With a victory in Wisconsin, Trump obtained the 270 electoral votes necessary to win the presidency.
He won Michigan on Wednesday afternoon, sweeping the ‘blue wall’ along with Pennsylvania, the once Democratic swing states that voted for Trump in 2016 before flipping to Biden in 2020.
While Harris focused much of her initial message on themes of joy, Trump channeled a powerful sense of anger and resentment among voters.
He tapped into frustrations over high prices and fears about crime and immigrants entering the country illegally during Biden’s presidency. He also highlighted the wars in the Middle East and the Russian invasion of Ukraine to present Democrats as presiding over – and encouraging – a world in chaos.
It was a formula Trump perfected in 2016, when he presented himself as the only person who could solve the country’s problems, often borrowing the language of dictators.
The vice president, who has not appeared publicly since the race was called, was scheduled to speak Wednesday afternoon at Howard University, where her supporters gathered Tuesday night for a watch party while the results were still in doubt. .

Trump’s victory against Harris, the first woman of color to lead a major party ticket, marks the second time he has defeated a female rival in a general election. Harris, the current vice president, rose to the top of the list after Biden dropped out of the race amid alarm over his advanced age.
Despite an initial surge of energy around his campaign, he struggled under a compressed schedule to convince disillusioned voters that he represented a break with an unpopular administration.
