John Morgan dishes on Kamala Harris ‘coronation’ to Laura Ingraham

John Morgan
The attorney thinks Team Trump would rather run against the VP than anyone else.

Fox News viewers got an extended version of trial lawyer John Morgan’s case against the Democratic Party Monday night.

Morgan, who tweeted out “be careful what you wish for” when Democrats moved toward picking a nominee by acclamation, had plenty more to say on cable television.

“What I didn’t like was a coronation instead of a convention,” he told Laura Ingraham, airing criticisms of Kamala Harris going unchallenged for the nomination to replace Joe Biden on the 2024 ballot.

“I didn’t like the idea of two or three people picking the nominee because I believe a convention would have provided perhaps a stronger candidate or it would have made her stronger. That didn’t happen. And so I said, you know, I’m just going to take my money and go home, and guess what They’re going to raise plenty of money without me. They’re not going to need me one bit.”

Morgan also noted that once a former House Speaker backed Harris, the debate over an open process was moot.

“Once Pelosi endorsed her, that was the end of the convention because Pelosi had called for a mini convention that’s over. It’s Kamala Harris and they’re gonna live and die with her,” Morgan added.

Other candidates have a better shot, Morgan said, likening picking a candidate to picking a horse at a racetrack.

“I don’t believe she can win. Now, does that make me a bad person? They want to make me a bad person for saying that they want to say, ‘Oh my God, I don’t think she could win.’ I think a combination of Joe Manchin, Andy Beshear, Josh Shapiro, Mark Kelly. I got 1,000 different scenarios that I think make more sense to win.”

Morgan wasn’t done, however.

“I represent some people high up in the Trump organization for some cases. If they had to pick one person to run against out of the whole lot, they just pick one. I think it would be her.”

    Well 84 year old senile Pelosi has spoken. There is no democracy within the Demo party. The donors and senile leaders have spoken. It’s Ka Mana. Ride it, and let’s see how she defends these last three years. Of course the zombie media will protect the incompetent DEI hire. The comedy show continues.

      LOL who the hell are you? This guy’s the same as he’s always been. Straight down the line. Why don’t you go find someone else’s cheerios to piss in. Seems like you’re having a bad day. People keep attacking journalists like it’s a hobby until there’s nobody left. If you don’t like it don’t read it. Slandering people just makes you a nasty person.

      The writers on this site work hard and you’re reading it for free. Especially now I think we should support our journalists. I am tired of seeing commenters attacking writers on this site because they don’t like the news. Most people have reading comprehension to understand how to read something and form their own opinions. Or not read something if they don’t like it. It is that simple. I like this site because it just tells the story and then people argue and debate about it. Maybe you should stick to Facebook. Threatening a writer’s job because you don’t like the story just makes you look foolish.

    “If they had to pick one person to run against out of the whole lot, they just pick one. I think it would be her.” – This what’s known as Republican misinformation. Trump is so completely rattled by a confident, intelligent woman that he doesn’t know what to do. Expect a flood of racist, misogynist insults from the future jailbird, cause that’s all he’s got.
