Memos Reveal Advice Given to Harris During Campaign, but Not Taken: Book

Former Vice President 👤Kamala Harris failed to follow advice meant to help her win the 🗳️2024 Election, a new book has revealed.

The book, “2024: How Trump Retook the White House and the Democrats Lost America,” by Josh Dawsey, Tyler Pager and Isaac Arnsdorf, details the memos that were meant to provide some guidance to Harris’ waning campaign, per Politico’s Playbook.

The memos included ways to increase Harris’ chances of getting elected, such as seeking the independent vote as well as “soft” Republican votes.

“It doesn’t give reason to vote for Harris,” Maria Comella, a Republican political adviser, wrote in a memo to Harris’ campaign manager Jen O’Malley Dillon regarding Harris’ campaign strategy up to that point.

The key, Comella explained, was to distinguish herself from President Joe Biden. Harris should also acknowledge the failings of the Democratic Party. This includes “missing the mark” on urban crime, its policy regarding electric cars and not paying enough attention to border security.

Another piece of advice was to go on the Joe Rogan podcast.

The objective, according to Memo One, was to go on the offensive.

“Frame closing argument that VP Harris is going to change the tone in Washington and bring people together in the name of getting the job done while Trump’s chaos makes it impossible – change versus a return to chaos, the memo read.
