US President Donald Trump criticized former Vice President Kamala Harris for calling the 2024 election “the closest Presidential Election in the 21st Century,” asserting the statement was false.
"Kamala Harris , who is DUMB AS A ROCK, is going around and using, as a standard part of her Speech on why she lost the Election, that 2024 was the “closest Presidential Election in the 21st Century.” Everyone knows this is a lie, and was covered as such by Fox News !" Trump said through a post on Truth Social .
Trump stated that he won the Electoral College 312-226, carried all seven swing states, and won the popular vote "by millions", despite high mail-in ballot numbers in California. He compared this margin to past close elections, including George W Bush’s 2000 victory, which was decided by 537 votes.
Trump also reiterated claims that the election was “rigged” in certain states and said he expects an apology from Harris for her comments.
Harris, who is currently promoting her new book 107 Days, stated on Tuesday that a key reason for her loss to Trump in the 2024 presidential election was that she “didn’t have enough time” to run an effective campaign.
She described the election as “the closest presidential race in the 21st century.” Despite investing $1.5 billion over 15 weeks, her campaign was defeated by Trump in the popular vote, the Electoral College, and in all seven swing states.
Harris also cited former President Joe Biden’s late withdrawal from the race in July 2024 as a key challenge. “Biden decides not to run. The sitting vice president then takes the mantle, running against a former president of the United States who had been running for ten years, with 107 days until the election,” she said in an interview with ABC .
She reflected on a misstep during an October 2024 interview on The View, acknowledging it hurt her campaign. When asked if she would have acted differently than Biden, she initially responded, “There is not a thing that comes to mind.”
In her memoir, she explained that her prepared answer highlighted her bipartisan approach. “I’m not Joe Biden, and I’m certainly not Donald Trump. But to specifically answer your question, throughout my career I have worked with Democrats, independents, and Republicans, and I know that great ideas come from all places. If I’m president, I would appoint a Republican to my cabinet,” she said.
