As Democrats and the media continue to seek answers to what happened in the election in which President-elect Donald Trump and the Republicans won a decisive victory, Vice President Kamala Harris is still trying to raise money, which is drawing criticism from within the ranks. 

“With Trump nominating MAGA loyalists left and right, there is nothing more important than making sure we can fight back and hold him accountable,” read an email from Kamala HQ that the New York Post received nearly three weeks after the election. 

“That’s why we need you to step up today. Yes, today,” it continued. 

“Our records show that you haven’t pitched in to support our Harris Fight Fund program yet,” adding “We know the election didn’t turn out as we’d hoped, but we’re not backing down.”

Harris’s campaign raised an estimated $1.5 billion and ended up around $20 million in debt, insiders told Politico — a claim the Harris campaign has denied.

“Getting fundraising requests after any candidate has lost, when they admit that they are still millions of dollars in debt, having blown through over a billion dollars … is especially galling,” Democratic strategist Jon Reinish told The Post.

“When I got yet another request from the Harris campaign for me to pony up. Quite frankly I thought it was insulting.”

James Carville, longtime Democratic strategist said that “Many people are asking questions and there should probably be some kind of an audit,” adding that it should go beyond the normal Federal Elections Commission type audit and be focused on “more granular and much more detailed” spending decisions.

Among the expenditures cited by The Post were “$1 million to Oprah’s Harpo Productions; $900,000 to advertise on the outside screen of the Las Vegas Sphere; $500,000 to Al Sharpton’s National Action Network, and millions on private jets and luxury hotels.”

Also, more than half a billion dollars went to “just four well-connected Democratic media consulting shops, according to records and reports.”

“People are going to want to know what vendors got what money and what did they do,” Carville said. “When you have an airplane crash people don’t say, let’s look forward, not look back — no you look into what happened, was it a mechanical failure, or a weather thing or a hydraulic issue. The greatest teacher in the world is mistakes.”
