January 1, Inside Kamala Harris’s Campaign Fundraising Secret
Vice President Kamala Harris’s team during her presidential run wasn’t straight with everyone about her chances of beating President-elect Donald Trump. Some folks raising big donations for her didn’t know what her internal polls really showed.
A key Harris fundraiser, Lindy Li, told Fox News Digital that they weren’t given the true picture. She said, “We were told she had a shot at winning.” Even Pennsylvania and several swing states were supposedly in their favor.
And get this, they were told they’d win Iowa, too. But David Plouffe, a Harris adviser, said on “Pod Save America” that their internal numbers never matched the optimistic public polls people saw.
Their team — Plouffe, Jen O’Malley Dillon, Stephanie Cutter, and Quentin Fulks — explained why Harris didn’t win. High-ups in the campaign knew the real story, but others, especially those dealing with donors, didn’t.
Lindy Li pointed out it’s not normal to keep such info hidden. She’s been at this for over a decade and says trust with donors needs repair. According to her, donors might feel misled because the situation was far worse than what they were led to believe.
It wasn’t just a loss for Harris; it was a big defeat. Despite some public polls showing her doing well against Trump, the reality hit hard on election night. Harris’s team recognized they were behind from the start and, despite efforts, couldn’t close the gap in crucial states.
Wyatt Matters!
Running a campaign is a team effort, and everyone involved needs to have the same information. This wasn’t the case during a past campaign for Kamala Harris. Some people raising money didn’t know the true chances of winning. They were told they’d win in important places like Pennsylvania and Iowa, but inside the team, they knew this wasn’t true. The campaign leaders, like David Plouffe, thought it best to keep this information private.
Keeping secrets can hurt trust. People working directly with donors, like Lindy Li, felt misled when they found out the truth. It’s unusual not to share important details, especially with those who work hard to support the campaign. Honest communication is crucial. Without it, people feel confused and upset, which isn’t good for future campaigns.
Losing is hard, especially when things look hopeful on the outside. Public polls showed Harris doing well, but the reality was different. Sadly, the team couldn’t win the states they needed. Being on the same page is important so everyone can work together, have faith in their mission, and hopefully reach victory.

If Harris‘s team and the DNC were not upfront and truthful about how things we’re going during her presidential campaign, and that the current Democrat administration was not upfront and truthful about President Biden‘s health situation, then how can we feel that the current administration has been truthful and upfront about anything during Biden‘s whole term in office?

“Then how can we feel that the current administration has been truthful and upfront about anything during Biden‘s whole term in office?”
A rhetorical question answers itself.

What about the voters? Up till the end poll after poll kept showing Ms. Harris ahead by a small margin.Leads me to believe the pollsters are as crooked as the people you mention.
That’s why voters are tired of the B.S. that keeps being thrown at them. At the end, in a fair election the voters have the last word and it showed in living colors.

Kamala Harris is dumb as a rock. It was obvious to this independent voter as soon as she tried to do interviews. She is a bimbo. I’m not trying to be mean–I’m simply being honest a quality that is in short supply in politics. The people are tried of the lies (the border is secure-inflation is in check-the economy is in great shape-and just about everything they stated) and they overwhelming voted to throw the lie mongers out. Good riddance.

Lying like this is one of the “planks” of the Communist Party . . . Just an “eye opener”

She would have been the most corrupt, incompetent and communist President in our history so happy the voters figured that out. She should never be allowed into government again.

Let’s face it, she’s a political con artist. She took the country for 1.4 billion dollars and wasted it all and lied. And now she is 20 million dollars in debt. She’s coming for us in California after Newsome leaves office. Lord help us!! I’m hopeful that the people of California will remember this disaster and don’t let her repeat it in our state.

You nailed it, a con job from top to bottom, otherwise known as bald faced liars. The saddest part is that almost half the country fell for it.

The whole Biden/Harris administration has been a steady stream of lies and deception, ignoring or bending the truth to fit their agenda/narrative. The exclusion of truth on their part was just as harmful as the distortion of what they did purport. No surprise that Harris campaign was no different.
