This is one of the endless columns on why Harris lost. We need to look at the terrible parts of Trump’s campaign.
My comment on the Post website:
There have been lots of critiques of the Harris campaign. Is anyone going to give comparable scrutiny to the Trump campaign? Trump won so obviously his campaign deserves some credit. But look how he did it.
In many ways Trump was horrible and I hope we never see another campaign like it. Here are some reasons:
1) He lied endlessly. The media failed to keep up but they had an impossible job. ABC was commended for correcting three lies in the debate while he lied many more times. How about his lies about hurricane cleanup and eating dogs and cats? How about his lies about the 2020 election and January 6th? How about his lies about who pays for tariffs?
2) Trump spewed racism and misogyny. The way he talked about Harris was disgusting.
3) He was sometimes hours late for events and, to put it kindly, rambling and incoherent. Remember the 39 minutes when he stood on the stage and didn’t speak? He still hasn’t reimbursed some communities for the costs of his events.
4) Numerous people who worked for his said he shouldn’t be elected.
I left out that people who worked for him said he had fascist tendencies. He got Republicans to kill the immigration bill that would have helped solve the problem. I also left out that he is a convicted felon and sexual predator. How about his illegal use of Arlington for political purposes?
Sad!
