Nate Silver Slams Harris Campaign Aides Over Post-Election Takes: 'No Will Of Their Own'
HuffPost
The polling pundit reacted to the Harris campaign chair claiming that the vice president "got s**t" over her media strategy unlike Trump.
Polling pundit Nate Silver ripped senior advisers to Kamala Harris’ failed presidential bid on Wednesday after a former top campaign official claimed that there was a “double standard” for the vice president and Donald Trump when it came to their media strategies.
“The Harris campaign folks are the most non-agentic people I’ve encountered in a position of comparable decision-making authority,” wrote Silver, founder of the polling analysis website FiveThirtyEight, in a post to X (formerly Twitter).
“They don’t even see themselves as victims so much as Non-Player Characters with no will of their own.”
Former Harris campaign chair Jen O’Malley Dillon, in an interview on “Pod Save America” that aired earlier this week, declared that the president-elect “got no shit” for doing less “traditional media” appearances than Harris.
O’Malley Dillion — who was joined by fellow advisers from the campaign David Plouffe, Quentin Fulks and Stephanie Cutter — later claimed that Harris, “got shit” for her approach compared to Trump.
