The outgoing chair of the Democratic National Committee (DNC) said in a wide-ranging interview published Friday that the party should have stuck with President Biden as its nominee during the 2024 election.
DNC Chair Jaime Harrison called Biden “the most successful of my lifetime legislative president” in the interview with The Associated Press, noting the former president had poured resources into making sure members of his party got elected to office.
“And then when he hits a roadblock, when he hits a bump in the road, do we stick with him, or do we jettison him? That’s the mentality that I had going into this,” Harrison told the AP.
“And my nature is, ‘I’m on the team with you, you’re my quarterback. You got sacked a few times. But you know what? I’m going to block the hell out of the next person that’s coming at you,’” he added “And that is not always the mentality of everybody in my party. And so sometimes, people look on the sidelines, ready to call in the backup.”
