I missed this video back in September during New York Fashion Week, but now that everyone is trying to figure out how the Kamala Harris campaign managed to burn through $1 billion in three-and-a-half months. Sure, there were all of the paid celebrities — it's rumored that Beyoncé was paid $10 million just to show up and speak for four minutes — but even that is only a tiny fraction of $1 billion.
So I wondered just how much this setup cost Kamala HQ during Fashion Week. Whatever it was, it was a waste of money — every single one of these people was going to vote for her anyway.
But check out all of the effort KHQ went to to amuse the rich and famous. There's a Jenga game with tiles marked with "Ban IVF," "National Abortion Ban," and "Ban Birth Control" — all lies. There's "Abortion Access" skee-ball. There's a "Hall of Hotties" showing Harris and Tim Walz and other supporters, and then a "Wall of Weirdos" featuring photos of Donald Trump, J.D. Vance, and their supporters.
Of all the videos to study for the Kamala post-mortem, this is one of the most important.

If Democrats want to learn why Harris lost so spectacularly, all they have to do is watch this video. How much effort did this take to set up, and how much did it cost to, again, win over people who were already guaranteed to vote for Harris?
Fashion Week is a monstrosity that shows just how out of touch the elite are with the common American. As we reported earlier, Harris' outreach to union members was to hand out brown-bag lunches.

This is the elite who are still scratching their heads wondering why people voted for Donald Trump.
