‘Far worse than anything Trump has done’: Portnoy calls out left for ‘abandoning democracy’

September 18, 2024 | | Print Article

Barstool Sports owner Dave Portnoy slammed Democrats, accusing them of doing something “far worse than anything [former President Donald] Trump has done.”

During an appearance on the All In Podcast, he called Vice President Kamala Harris “nutty” and said Democrats have effectively abandoned democracy by shoehorning Harris into President Joe Biden’s campaign position.

Watch:

“I think that what the Democrats have done is far worse than really anything Trump has done. Like in terms of not allowing a primary. To me, that’s crazy,” Portnoy said. “Like I’m somebody who if I liked a candidate in the Democrat side, I could have potentially voted for that person. Like, to not give people a choice, and they really still haven’t figured out, well was [Biden] not prepared, is he not mentally aware? Can he not run, is he too old? He just thought he was going to lose.”

“The fear of you just thought he was going to lose is not a real answer,” he continued. “He ran like, you have to then let other people and if he’s not mentally there, which I don’t think he is, Kamala has known that and she just lied about it forever and then they kick him out. So there’s so many problems I have with the way…  She never got a vote. You can say whatever you want about Trump. He won the Republican nomination by landslide fair and square, and Kamala did not.”

“To me, that’s a major issue. Some of her past statements for me are just nutty and I don’t like what’s happened in a lot of Democrat states,” he admitted. “I hope if she’s elected, like California and New York, those don’t become what happens to the United States. I don’t know that it will, I don’t know that much can change.”
