“All of a sudden, everybody’s got the keys to the candy store, ad buyers, talent consultants. There’s 100 days to do it, and the money started pouring in,” Morgan mentioned, including that “ego” and a “crazy” want to acquire commissions on positioned adverts drove a lot of the spending.

When requested if Morgan believes somebody probably stole the cash, he mentioned, “Maybe legally.”
The donor added that the reported $1.5 billion spent in 4 months is proof that Harris should not run once more.
“I believe this disqualifies her without end,” Morgan said. “If you happen to can’t run a marketing campaign, you possibly 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, and the donors are going to be, like, ‘Where is this money?'” he added.
Lindy Li, a member of the DNC finance committee, informed NewsNation’s Wealthy McHugh that the interior strife and financial confusion on the heart of the celebration have led some staffers to go away altogether.
The cash, Harris’ marketing campaign says, isn’t a problem.
