A top adviser has said in an upcoming book that former President Joe Biden ruined the campaign hopes of former Vice President Kamala Harris, by staying in the race too long before bowing out.
According to The Guardian, David Plouffe, who managed former President Barack Obama’s winning 2008 presidential campaign and was a senior advisor in Obama’s White House, was recruited to help with Harris’ campaign and her “nightmare” 107-day sprint against President Donald Trump.
“Original Sin: President Biden’s Decline, Its Cover-up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again,” authored by Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson, quotes Plouffe as saying that Harris’ campaign against Trump was “a f*cking nightmare.”
“And it’s all Biden,” Plouffe was reported as saying while reflecting on Biden’s decisions to run for re-election and then to continue on for more than three weeks after his debate against Trump went disastrously, while raising questions about his mental acuity and age. “He totally f*cked us.”
Plouffe, alongside several former Obama staffers, has been openly critical of Biden, particularly regarding his role in the Democratic loss. Following Harris’s defeat, he shared a post on X stating that her campaign had started from a “deep hole.” Soon after, he deleted his account.
