Former President Donald Trump recently took to his Truth Social platform to share his thoughts on Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign strategy, describing what he sees as a “big mistake” in her approach. Trump’s critique comes on the heels of his own decisive victory in the election, where he won all seven key battleground states, ultimately defeating Harris in her bid for the presidency.

Trump’s analysis reflects his belief that strategic missteps by the Democrats played a pivotal role in their loss, particularly their decision to involve former Republican Congresswoman Liz Cheney. Over the weekend, Trump issued a scathing post, addressing what he considers to be the vice president’s critical miscalculation.

“The Democrats made a BIG mistake in getting Crazy Liz Chaney, and her father, Dick, involved in their campaign for President,” Trump wrote, notably misspelling Cheney’s last name. His post pointedly criticized the choice to align with a former Republican who has been an outspoken critic of Trump and the MAGA movement, suggesting that it only alienated Republican voters while leaving Democrats “scratching their heads in amazement.”

Trump’s post highlights the former president’s belief that involving Liz Cheney in a Democratic campaign may have backfired by stirring up strong emotions among Republicans. Cheney, once a prominent figure within the GOP, became increasingly isolated from her party following her vocal opposition to Trump’s actions surrounding the January 6th Capitol riot and his influence on the Republican Party as a whole, reported Mediaite.

Her involvement in the Democratic campaign, Trump suggests, only served to intensify Republican voter turnout and deepen divisions within the Democratic base. According to Trump, Cheney’s political history, particularly her criticism of Trump, made her a poor choice as an ally for Democrats aiming to win over swing voters.

“It is always a bad idea to bring ‘losers’ into a political campaign!” Trump added in his post, reinforcing his point that Cheney’s lack of electoral success and recent tensions within her party made her an unwise partner for the Harris campaign. For Trump, Cheney represents what he describes as a “loser” in political terms, someone whose involvement could only detract from a campaign rather than strengthen it.

Trump’s comments reveal his perspective on political alliances and the importance of a carefully curated campaign team that resonates with voters. By bringing Cheney into the fold, he argues, Democrats may have inadvertently driven Republicans to the polls in greater numbers. In his view, a figure like Cheney, who has publicly condemned the former president, would be unlikely to sway Republican-leaning independents or moderate Republicans and might instead have motivated them to support Trump’s return to office.

Trump’s analysis, delivered in his characteristic blunt style, underscores his longstanding aversion to perceived “disloyalty” within the Republican Party. Liz Cheney’s break from Trump and her alignment with Democrats in this election cycle has cemented her as a divisive figure, and Trump’s words reflect his belief that such alliances can be counterproductive, even in bipartisan efforts.

As Trump continues to prepare for his upcoming term, his remarks about the Harris campaign offer a glimpse into the former president’s political philosophy and his unfiltered thoughts on campaign strategy. Trump’s disdain for Cheney’s involvement emphasizes his conviction that loyalty to his MAGA movement remains a non-negotiable element for success, and he views the Democrats’ choice to align with Cheney as a miscalculation that may have contributed to their loss.
