Kamala Harris Is Blasted by Ruben Gallego for Economic Issues

The newly elected Democratic Senator from Arizona, Ruben Gallego, who narrowly defeated Republican Kari Lake, is providing some new insights. During an interview on CNN’s “State of the Union,” Gallego candidly admitted that Democrats could have failed to recognise real economic problems.

What really struck a chord with people was the economics. That’s what people in Arizona told me. They were worried about the cost of things. Gallego began, “Some frustration came from spending money without necessarily helping those in need,” but interviewer Jake Tapper cut him off.

Do you mean spending money in Ukraine? Tapper asked. Yes, precisely. My annoyance stemmed in part from the fact that our desire to assist was constrained by the absence of Republican backing.

Gallego observed that “many politicians were not attuned to what was truly occurring.” Early in his campaign, he prioritised economic issues and border security.

Election night was devastating for Democrats. The House was not retaken, the Senate slid away, and Kamala Harris’ campaign against President-elect Donald Trump failed in seven crucial states. The disillusionment among party officials was heightened by polls that indicated a close contest with a little edge for Harris.

After the election, tensions increased as supporters of Biden and Harris blamed each other for the loss. Supporters of Harris contended that once it became clear that Trump had the advantage, the president ought to have resigned. On Pod Save America, former Obama White House aide Jon Favreau contended that Biden’s June debate demonstrated Trump’s electoral viability if Biden didn’t resign.

Additionally, Harris’ team is under fire for the campaign’s excessive spending over the course of its 100-day run, which exceeded $1 billion in revenue and resulted in substantial debt…
