"It's Just a Circus of Lies:" Democrat Megadonors Want the "Obama People" Out of the Party, Claiming They Caused the Historic Loss and Are Just "Grifters"

This is a wonderful story.

I don't know how true it is or how widespread these sentiments are, though.

Warring Democratic factions are in a 'knife fight' for control of the Party after Kamala Harris's humiliating election loss, say political insiders.

The battle lines are now drawn between West Coast liberals, Bernie Sanders-socialists and moderate technocrats in the Midwest, who insist the party has completely lost touch with the average American voter.

But first, there is one thing that all sides seemingly agree on: The current political establishment must be chased out of national politics for good.

'The people that are responsible for this s**tshow are the Obama people. They're just grifters,' a well-connected Democratic donor exclusively told Daily Mail.

He singled out Jen O'Malley Dillon, who went from Biden 2024 campaign chair to serve in the same role for Harris's camp, and David Plouffe, an ex-Obama 2008 campaign manager turned top Kamala adviser.

Deep-pocketed lefty patrons are enraged by Plouffe's post-election admission that Harris never led Trump in their internal campaign polling, despite public surveys showing her ahead.

'[Polls] came out in late September, early October, showing us with leads that we never saw,' Plouffe revealed late last month on the Democrat-friendly podcast 'Pod Save America.'

'They lied to us. It's just a circus of lies,' the donor erupted, complaining that Harris' team regularly painted a much rosier picture when speaking to supporters who were signing big checks.

Particularly appalling to these critics is that Harris' campaign also managed to blow through an unprecedented $1.5 billion in donor cash over the course of 15 weeks -- and with barely anything to show for it, losing control of the White House, Senate and failing to flip the House of Representatives.

The campaign, for instance, spent nearly $1 million to light up the 366-foot-high, 516-foot-wide LED screen wrapping around The Sphere arena in Las Vegas.

The strip landmark played a 90-second Harris campaign ad for a week.

'$900,000 to put her face on The Sphere in Las Vegas! The ego!' griped Democrat mega-donor and trial attorney John Morgan last month. He describes himself as a 'Joe Biden Democrat.'

Other examples of alleged profligate spending included $2.5 million on the production costs for an Oprah Winfrey town hall event in September.

And there were purported donations totaling $500,000 paid to the Rev. Al Sharpton's National Action Network charity (Harris was later treated to a softball interview on Sharpton's MSNBC show).

'People are pissed, and they are rightfully pissed,' fumed Democratic strategist Mike Nellis, a former senior advisor to Harris, to the Mail.

Kamala Harris has come under fire for allegedly profligate spending, including $2.5 million on an Oprah Winfrey-produced town hall and a reported $900,000 for a running weeklong ad on the Las Vegas Sphere (top)

Donors like John Morgan are seriously suspicious.

'There's a lot of whispers. There's a lot of names about who got paid this, who got paid that, and a lot of people got rich on the back of donors trying to stop Trump,' he said.

Of Harris, he concluded, 'I think this disqualifies her forever. Forever.'

'If you can't run a campaign, you can't run America... The same thing is going to follow Harris for the rest of her career. She cannot be trusted with the money.'

Update: The lamentations of the women.

Former Obama adviser Van Jones said during a recent interview that President-elect Donald Trump was smarter than himself and all of his critics.

"Guys, can we cut it out? Donald Trump is not an idiot. Let me just be very clear. Donald Trump is smarter than me, you, and all of his critics. You know how I know? Because he has the White House, the Senate, the House, the Supreme Court, the popular vote," Jones said.

Jones was asked by former CNN reporter Chris Cilizza during an interview on his YouTube channel about Trump's successful presidential campaign.

"He has a massive media ecosystem bigger than the mainstream built around him, and for him, and a religious fervor in a political movement around him. And his best buddy is the richest person in the history of the world, and the most relevant Kennedy is with him," Jones added.

Jones said Trump was the most powerful person of our lifetimes and argued the Democratic Party looked like idiots.

The ex-Obama adviser, who is also a CNN commentator, has spoken out repeatedly about the election loss for Democrats in recent weeks.

The "insiders" say they still expect Kamala Harris to run for president in 2028. One said she might declare her candidacy soon after Trump is sworn into office.
