Kamala Harris Criticized for $100K Spend on 'Call Her Daddy' Interview Set

The vice president's campaign faced backlash for extravagant spending during her failed presidential bid, including a costly makeshift set for a podcast interview.

  • Vice President Kamala Harris' campaign spent $100,000 to replicate the 'Call Her Daddy' podcast set for an October interview in Washington, D.C.
  • Podcast host Alex Cooper mocked the set, describing it as 'cardboard walls' and questioning how it cost six figures.
  • The interview, part of Harris' pre-election efforts, garnered under a million views, far below Donald Trump's 52 million views on Joe Rogan's podcast.
  • Harris' campaign reportedly burned through a $1 billion war chest, including $494 million on advertising and $900,000 for a Las Vegas Sphere display, but failed to win any battleground states.
  • The Democratic Party faced internal criticism over Harris' spending and her controversial nomination process, which bypassed primary elections after President Biden stepped down.
