Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT.) He is advancing why Kamala Harris lost the 2024 presidential elections.

While talking with the BBC Radio 4 during the London stage of his “Light Oligarchy” tour, the two -time presidential candidate said he was wrong with Harris’s defeat in the late retirement of the then President Joe Biden of the race.

“It was Kamala Harris and his consultants,” he said clearly, before exposing how the Democrats could not “direct a campaign designed to speak with the US working class.”

Sanders told the station that, although President Donald Trump can be “reasonably popular,” the Democrats could have hit it if they were heading to the daily struggles faced by Americans during the campaign.

“I ran throughout the country trying to choose Kamala Harris and I begged them: talk to the needs of the working class. Talk about raising the minimum wage to a decent salary,” he continued. “Talk about the real reform of medical care. Talk about the construction of the types of large amounts of homes that we need and put checks about the greed of the owners about the house.”

But instead of listening to Sanders, Harris’s campaign decided to trust “multimillionaires” and Anti-Trump Republicans as former American representative Liz Cheney (Wyo).

“Kamala spent more time with Liz Cheney almost with someone else. What is that message to working class people?” asked.

Sanders added that using the star of the billionaire “Tank” Mark Cuban as a substitute was also a big false step for the Democrats.

“In my opinion, that was a campaign that should have been won,” but the consultants and 1% brought them on a bad way, he said.

“The conclusion here is that the Democrats have to answer a very simple question: what side are you?”

Speaking about the current strategy of the game in an interview with the Washington Post published last week, the senator had a similar message.

“Do the Democrats do enough?” He asked himself. “No.”

“The difference I have with democratic leadership is not the need to strongly oppose Trump,” he explained. “It is to present an agenda that resonates with the families of the working class. And I think there are a number of Trump people who will support that agenda.”

Even before the tickets were thrown, the observers distrust the decision of the Democrats to take into account that the renowned supporters such as Oprah Winfrey, Beyoncé, George Clooney, Jennifer López and more, wondering if it would be worth it.

And in the consequences of the 2024 elections, politics experts were even more critical.

“Celebrities’ backups say a lot: they say you are a liberal, an elitist and a cultural progressive. A support of Oprah or Clooney is the kiss of death in great stripes of the country now,” said Republican strategist William FB O’Reilly to New York Times in a postmortem electoral analysis.
