Former Obama advisors tell ‘The View’ Dems hurt party by taking too long to admit Biden couldn't win
Fox News ^ | 1/24/25 | Gabrieal Hays

The co-hosts of the prominent progressive podcast "Pod Save America" appeared on "The View" on Friday to explain the Democratic Party's failures during the 2024 campaign.

The three co-hosts and former Obama administration staffers, Jon Favreau, Tommy Vietor and Dan Pfeiffer, pointed to the party’s coddling of President Biden and his ambitions to run for re-election despite his age and poor polling, as one of the reasons for Democrats being in such disarray.

"I think one thing, though, that harmed the Democrats over the last couple of years was a lack of candor and not being honest with ourselves that there were a lot of voters who felt like Joe Biden was too old to get another four years," Vietor told the ABC daytime talk show hosts.

Democrats not being honest?

C’mon man! That’s your whole identity in a nutshell.

Harris couldn’t either. So it didn’t matter.

That was their party platform's structure. And, to your point, it went poof!"

Yeah, and probably another reason why the Dems lost is because they left the border wide open and let every criminal and scumbag from the third world stroll on in and get all sorts of freebies at the expensive US citizens.

Oh yeah, and they’re also big fans of little kids taking hormones to block their physical development and then mutilating their genitals, so there is that too.

The censorship and destruction of the first amendment is another one that comes to mine I guess, while using Lawfare to attack political opponents.

Damn now I think about it there it’s quite the list of reasons why the Democrats lost

So “The View” is featuring people who promote age discrimination. What a bunch of filthy bigots.

I hope Joe Biden runs again in 2028 just to prove them wrong.

They’re still clueless or in denial about why they lost.

Good.

It was the dems message, plus the messengers sucked.

There was not a dem that would have beaten Trump with those policies

Like in California, failure to act in time has consequences. It’s not like in the movies.

After his withdrawal, letting Biden follow up with an endorsement of Kamala Harris was the fatal error.

That’s the price you pay when you’re a slow learner and lack self awareness... which, apparently, will be an ongoing problem for this breed of people.

DEI finally caught up to them.

No one dared to run against Kamala Harris during the Convention.

Even though they all knew she was a lackluster candidate.

Tommy Vietor is that punk who said to Brett Baier, “Dude, that was two years ago” when asked about Benghazi.
