Vice President Kamala Harris and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz are addressing Democratic National Committee (DNC) finance directors following reports that their campaign accrued $20 million in debt after significant spending.
Mega-donor John Morgan criticized the spending, telling NewsNation that donors supported the campaign to defeat Donald Trump, not to elect Harris, and called the expenses concerning.
The campaign reportedly spent $15 million on event production, $4 million on private jets, and $1 million paid to Oprah Winfrey’s company, among other expenses. Morgan suggested the spending was fueled by “ego” and commissions from ad placements, labeling it as potentially unethical, though legal.
Morgan argued that Harris’s handling of campaign finances disqualifies her from future presidential races, adding, “She cannot be trusted with the money.” Lindy Li, a DNC finance committee member, noted that financial mismanagement has caused internal strife and staff resignations.
The Harris campaign refuted the claims, with Chief Financial Officer Patrick Stauffer stating there were no unpaid debts or overdue bills as of Election Day.
