Sheesh! Biden threw Kamala under the bus!
In a revealing interview on ABC’s The View, former President Joe Biden admitted what many Democrats refuse to say out loud: he wasn’t surprised when Donald J. Trump soundly defeated Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 election.
“I wasn’t surprised,” Biden confessed. “Not because she isn’t qualified—but a lot of people didn’t show up.”
That quiet admission comes as Democrats face a deepening identity crisis following a historic landslide victory for President Trump—who reclaimed key battleground states and even captured the national popular vote.
Trump Flips the Map: 7 Swing States Return to Red
President Trump’s 2024 comeback was nothing short of historic. He didn’t just win back the so-called “Blue Wall”—Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin—but also flipped Georgia, Nevada, and Arizona.
That delivered all seven key swing states and the presidency, crushing the Harris campaign both electorally and publicly. For the first time since George W. Bush in 2004, a Republican won the presidency with a clear lead in the popular vote.
“Because I beat him,” Biden smirked when asked why Trump remains focused on him. But this time, it was Trump who delivered the knockout blow.
Polls Reveal Why Voters Rejected Kamala Harris
A post-election survey by the left-leaning firm Blueprint found that voters overwhelmingly rejected Harris due to:
- Soaring inflation under Democrat policies
- A worsening border crisis with no real plan to stop illegal immigration
- Harris’s focus on woke cultural issues, like gender identity and DEI, instead of middle-class economic relief
Even top Harris campaign aides admitted their internal numbers never showed her beating Trump.
Biden Blames “Sexism”—But Avoids Policy Blunders
Rather than address the core issues voters cared about, Biden fell back on claims of “sexist attacks” from the Trump campaign.
“They played the whole sexist angle… questioning if a woman of mixed race could lead the country,” he said.
But Biden steered clear of mentioning the tanking polling numbers, record-high gas and grocery prices, or the chaos at the southern border—all central issues to older, middle-class voters.
What’s Next for Harris? Biden Weighs In
When asked whether Kamala Harris might be eyeing a run for governor of California, Biden offered a non-committal response, saying, “She has a tough choice ahead.” He continued, “I hope she remains actively involved. She’s extremely capable—but we’ve also got several strong contenders in the mix.”
He also revealed he still speaks to Harris “frequently,” claiming they last talked “yesterday.”
Democrats in Disarray While Trump Gains Momentum
Biden also voiced concern for the broader state of liberal politics, warning that left-wing movements around the world are suffering defeats. He blamed the pandemic’s emotional toll on voters—not failed policies or a disconnected message.
“I think we underestimate the negative impact COVID had on people’s optimism,” Biden said.
As Trump builds a renewed coalition and Democrats scramble for direction, the 2024 election may be remembered not just as a Republican victory—but as a referendum on the failures of Biden-Harris era leadership.
