Kevin O’Leary of Shark Tank appeared on CNN this week and caused a complete meltdown on the panel by calling Kamala Harris a loser. It was one of those moments when the other people on the show couldn’t even wait to be told it was their turn to talk, everyone just jumped in and talked over each other.
O’Leary correctly pointed out that the Democrats ‘anointed’ her as the nominee, rather than holding any sort of primary and says that she got ‘slaughtered’ anyway.
Nothing he says is wrong here, but the reaction from the rest of the panel speaks volumes about CNN. Moderator Abby Phillip tries to rescue the conversation at the end and tries to defend Harris, but she utterly fails.
Scott Jennings was probably trying to agree with O’Leary but it’s hard to tell in the chaos.
FOX News reports:
A CNN panel lost it on Tuesday after Shark Tank’s Kevin O’Leary called former Vice President Kamala Harris a “loser,” and admonished the Democratic Party for failing to run a primary after former President Biden dropped out of the 2024 presidential race.
“Now we’re going to talk about it. They did not run a process. They picked a loser, and she lost, and she got slaughtered because they didn‘t run a process,” O’Leary said to the panel on Tuesday.
CNN political commentators Bakari Sellers, Karen Finney and podcast host Van Lathan quickly pushed back on the notion as the panel discussed members of the party who rallied around and defended Biden after the debate, as well as boosted Harris as his successor after he decided to exit the race.
“First of all, like, let’s just make sure that we maintain some respect for Kamala Harris,” Lathan said. Finney agreed, saying of the former vice president, “I think referring to her as a loser is disrespectful. I think that we need to make sure that we have a little bit of dignity.”
