Murphy: ‘I Think We All Bear Responsibility’ for Democrats’ 2024 Loss
- Senator Chris Murphy blamed the Democratic Party’s leadership for its 2024 election loss during a May 2025 interview focusing on Biden’s campaign and party strategy failures.
- Murphy argued that party leaders ignored voters requesting a younger candidate and remained loyal to President Biden despite visible signs of cognitive decline and campaign difficulties.
- He detailed how Biden’s 2024 campaign faltered after a poor debate, leading to Biden’s late withdrawal and Vice President Kamala Harris’s abbreviated campaign, which culminated in Harris’s loss to Trump.
- Murphy acknowledged Biden’s cognitive decline, citing an upcoming book by Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson that shows variations in Biden’s performance while noting he personally did not observe changes.
- Murphy emphasized Democratic mistakes requiring tactical shifts to avoid further losses, stating “we all bear responsibility” and warning that failure to improve risks jeopardizing future elections, including 2028.
