The White House press secretary's self-styled analysis of the Democratic Party’s “main constituency” doesn’t square with reality.
In the 2024 House elections, about 70 million Americans voted for Democrats, compared to 74 million who voted for Republicans. In the presidential race, Kamala Harris received 75 million votes to Donald Trump’s 77 million.
She's off the rails. She's unraveled. She's the president's voice.
