Julian Zelizer : A New York Times article about the influence of big donors over the Kamala Harris campaign was based on not-so-humble bragging from the heights of corporate America .

He says it reads much more like a confession that Harris 's campaign was more open to corporate input than Biden 's.

Zelizer says Harris signaled her intention to scrap parts of Biden 's economic agenda that benefited working-class Americans but went down with the very rich.

They were fine under Biden , they would have been fine under Harris , and they will certainly not suffer any real damage under Trump ’s presidency, even if they find him personally distasteful. The role they played in steering the Harris campaign onto the rocks, however, is one that everyone without the protective insulation of wealth should remember during the second Trump term..
