Cash-Poor Democrats Are STILL Struggling to Bail Out the Failed Kamala Harris Campaign and Her Efforts to Help Them Have Failed
When it comes to the fundraising race, the Democrat party is way behind Republicans. The DNC currently has about $13 million on hand while the RNC is sitting on a nest egg of about $84 million.
One of the things that’s hurting the DNC is that they’re still struggling to help pay off the debt from the failed Kamala Harris campaign. She spent more than a billion dollars in a matter of months last fall and somehow still came up millions of dollars short with nothing to show for it.
Harris has tried to help the party with their fundraising efforts but for some strange reason, it’s just not working out.
FOX News reports:
Kamala Harris fundraising events have been a flop to help raise money for DNC: report
Former Vice President Kamala Harris’ fundraising events for the Democratic National Committee (DNC) have fallen short, according to Axios, as the DNC has continued to pay off the former presidential nominee’s campaign expenses.
Harris allowed the DNC to use her email list to help raise funds, according to Axios. She has also reportedly held a few small fundraising events.
“But the total money raised from the events has been disappointing,” Axios reported, citing people familiar with the matter.
After Harris lost to President Donald Trump in 2024, top Democrats expressed concern about potential campaign debt.
“How do you raise a historic amount of money and not win a single swing state?” one Harris aide told Axios in November, following the election loss. “The honest answer is: I don’t know. It seems we lost the national narrative, and that’s what we need to diagnose.”
In addition to this, people who are donating to the DNC now, probably think they’re giving money to support new initiatives and candidates, not realizing that they’re just helping to pay down the Harris campaign debt.
NYTIMES: Kamala Harris ended her failed $1.5 billion campaign with $20 million in unpaid bills, which the DNC had secretly agreed to cover. Since then, Harris has been raising money from donors without disclosing the money was actually gong to pay off her campaign debt! pic.twitter.com/ivPKrrfGCM

Money isn’t everything in politics but the Democrats aren’t even liquid. They’re still paying off an election that happened almost a year ago. It’s a terrible position to be in at this stage of the game.
