Pathetic Kamala Harris spent $1.5 billion — including on bribes to interviewers ($100 million per week)

Kamala Harris spent $1.5 billion on her failed presidential campaign, hemorrhaging on average $100 million per week — proving that she and her claque are as bad at managing money as they are at generating coherent policy ideas.

The big-ticket items:

- $900,000 to advertise on the outside screen of the Las Vegas Sphere (Harris ended up losing Nevada).

- A cool million to Oprah Winfrey’s Harpo Productions for Harris’ splashy townhall event with the media queen.

- Ten million for a series of Gen X-bait conferences with the likes of Jon Bon Jovi (Harris ended up losing Gen X).

- $494 million on overall advertising — half a billion bucks.

Heck, Kamala was so desperate to seem like she had something to say she paid big names to talk to her.

**SNIP**

It was hollow and fake from the start.

Right down to the creepy, Stalinist rallying cry of “Joy” taken up by eager lapdogs at the Times and elsewhere.

Trump was clearly the one having fun, zipping around the country, doing his trademark shuffle and letting fly one-liners as Harris stumbled and fumbled and mumbled and her army of enforcers on social media and in the press screeched about how amazing and wonderful and perfect she was.

And despite having every major media organization pulling for her, she just didn’t have what it takes.

Either in personality or policy.

Money matters plenty in campaigns, but it can’t make up for having no real message and a candidate with zero credibility.

Worse yet for the Democratic Party’s future, it may just have taught its donors to think twice before giving a dime to an apparatus that burns cash so incredibly cluelessly.

There is no telling how much was “diverted” into selected pockets, personal and leftist organizations, for use elsewhere.

She would have made a great RAT president. What a JOY it would have been to watch her out shopping and spending money with “the girls”, Opie Winfree, Sonny Hosteen, Beyonce, Megan the Gelding, and the rest of the entertainment world elite scumbags. From a Jamaican/Indian/Canadian refugee bedwarmer for a big city mayor to the Queen of the World with a billion and a half bucks to spend like a drunken pirate. The New American Dream.

What makes you think she blew through a billion dollars? That money went to the people and companies who are robbing America blind. Anything a Democrat does with more than a buck, consider it is going to a donor, friendly business or off-shore to be washed and returned as something different.

Q: What is the fastest way to kill a bad product?

A: Advertising.

The real question is how much of that $1.5 billion derived from foreign sources and US foreign aid. Need a very serious investigation of that immediately.

OPRAH’s COMPANY GOT $1.5 MILLION-—BUT OPRAH says ‘she didn’t get paid anything’.

She learned how to parse words from Bill CLinton.
