MSNBC host Joy Reid insisted that Kamala Harris ran a great campaign. She made the statement while covering election results as it became clear that Republican nominee Donald Trump was taking a solid lead.
By Wednesday, Trump had beaten Harris in most swing states and also clinched the lead in the popular vote.
Reid said, “I think it’s important to say, anyone who has experienced or been in the United States for any period of time and experienced this country’s history and knows it, cannot have believed it would be easy to elect a woman president, let alone a woman of color. Let’s just be clear. And nothing that was true yesterday about how flawlessly this campaign was run, is not true now.”
She doubled down on that message, adding, “I mean, this really was an historic, flawlessly run campaign. She had … Queen Latifah never endorses anyone. She came out and endorsed her. You know, I mean, she had every prominent celebrity voice. She had the Taylor Swift, she had the Swifties, she had the Bey-hive. You could not have run a better campaign in that short period of time. And I think that’s still true.”
Winning the support of almost every A-list celebrity was not enough to convince the American people, however.
Reid said last month that the surge in Trump’s poll numbers occurred because “some Democrats are starting to believe the disinformation, too,” as The Daily Wire previously reported.
“Have you noticed how sharply the polls have shifted in Trump’s favor over these last couple weeks with these claims that Trump is surging with black and Latino voters and leading in every single swing state, according to secret internal polls, despite all the Hitler talk?” she said on an episode of The ReidOut.
“Yes, this race will be far too close because unfortunately, we do have a fascist groundswell in parts of this country, mainly among white men, let’s be clear, but in small pockets among black and brown men, too,” she continued. “This happens to be a global phenomenon, as women become more economically independent and seek positions of power.”
