<p>Every candidate for Democratic National Committee chair agreed on Thursday that &#8220;racism and misogyny played a role&#8221; in former Vice President Kamala Harris&#8217; election defeat.</p>
<p>Eight DNC chair candidates, including former presidential candidate Marianne Williamson and former Social Security Administration Commissioner Martin O&#8217;Malley, were part of an <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mYGNpj0qqow" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MSNBC forum</a> at Georgetown University, where they answered various questions from network hosts Jen Psaki, Symone Sanders, and Jonathan Capehart. After a question from Capehart for all the candidates, each agreed that Harris lost to President Donald Trump partly because of a culture of racism and misogyny.</p>
<p>&#8220;So, I’m going to have a show of hands. How many of you believe that racism and misogyny played a role in Vice President Harris’ defeat?&#8221; Capehart asked.</p>
<p>Every candidate quickly raised their hands as did the audience members.</p>
<p>&#8220;That&#8217;s good. You all passed,&#8221; Capehart said.</p>

<p>Republicans and political commentators blasted the DNC chair candidates&#8217; response to Capehart&#8217;s question. More than 77 million Americans voted for Trump over Harris in 2024, including a <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2024/11/07/trump-black-latino-men-working-class-00188185" target="_blank" rel="noopener">shift</a> from Hispanic and black men in Trump&#8217;s favor. Trump also made gains among <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/yes-trump-improved-young-men-drew-young-women-rcna179019" target="_blank" rel="noopener">young women</a> in his election victory over Harris.</p>
<p>Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) <a href="https://x.com/TTuberville/status/1885293199138095210" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote</a> on X, &#8220;I&#8217;m already looking forward to expanding our majority in 2026.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I endorse this post-mortem analysis and encourage my democratic friends to double or even triple down,&#8221; <a href="https://x.com/ScottJenningsKY/status/1885301760618647841" target="_blank" rel="noopener">quipped</a> CNN pundit Scott Jennings.</p>
<p>Conservative columnist Marc Thiessen <a href="https://x.com/marcthiessen/status/1885288415555363053" target="_blank" rel="noopener">joked</a>, &#8220;No idea why they lost.&#8221;</p>
<p>Throughout the forum, some candidates berated Trump and the Republican Party, claiming they were threats to the country. The DNC chair will be <a href="https://apnews.com/article/dnc-chair-winter-meeting-wikler-martin-27c12854863eb1d0753db741352b5dfa" target="_blank" rel="noopener">elected</a> by members on Saturday. Outgoing chairman Jaimie Harrison announced he would not run for another term after Democrats lost the White House and control of the Senate after the November election.</p>
