Max Bennett and Lisa Vega break down Al Jazeera’s post-election analysis of what led to Kamala Harris’s loss, as Democratic strategist John Neffinger shares where the party missed the mark. Despite Harris’s strong convention debut and her “joyful lawyer” persona that had everyone cheering, key strategies fell flat.

Joined by Gabriel Nadale and former ambassador William Courtney, we dissect the Dems’ missteps, from messaging that didn’t connect to a platform that failed to rally crucial voter bases. Expect a sharp, irreverent, and darkly humorous exploration of how the Democrats stumbled in 2024, with plenty of brutal honesty on what went wrong—and what it might take to fix it.
