President-elect Trump’s victory over Vice President Kamala Harris has led to speculation and finger-pointing among Democratic surrogates, with blame being assigned for the defeat even before Harris concedes. Sources close to the Harris campaign have indicated that they did not anticipate such a significant loss.
Concerns have been raised about the choice of Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as Harris' running mate, with some suggesting that Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro might have been a more effective pick to secure crucial 'blue wall' states. Shapiro's perceived moderation could have helped counter Trump's portrayal of Harris as a San Francisco liberal.
