A Democratic mega-donor doesn't believe Vice President Kamala Harris can beat former President Trump and is refusing to donate to her campaign.
Orlando attorney John Morgan, who donated $1 million to Biden's campaign, said he is now “out” as Harris is expected to become the Democratic nominee with President Biden's endorsement.
“What I didn't like was that there was a coronation instead of a convention. I didn't like the idea of two or three people choosing the nominee, because I think a convention would have provided perhaps a stronger candidate,” Morgan said on “The Ingraham Angle” on Monday.
“I don't think she can win.”

Morgan said former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi played a major role in Harris becoming the presumptive nominee ahead of the Democratic National Convention next month.
“Once Pelosi endorsed her, that was the end of the convention because Pelosi had called for a mini-convention. That's over. It's Kamala Harris, and they're going to live and die with her.”
Morgan, however, is not convinced that Harris is the strongest candidate.
“I thought if you could pick someone, wouldn't you pick the two strongest people to win? I don't think they did.”
Morgan suggested other names that he thinks would have a better chance.
“I think some combination of Joe Manchin, Andy Beshear, Josh Shapiro, Mark Kelly… I have a thousand different scenarios that I think make the most sense to win.”
Morgan said he believes if the Trump campaign could choose who to run against, they would choose Harris.

According to the New York Times, Harris is trailing Trump by about two percentage points in recent polls. The 46% to 48% difference is slightly better for Harris compared to Biden's average showing in polls: three percentage points behind the Republican presidential nominee, 47% to 44%.
A New York Times/Siena College poll conducted in the battleground state of Pennsylvania from July 9-11, before Biden dropped out and before the assassination attempt against Trump at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, showed Harris was just one percentage point behind in a hypothetical matchup against Trump.
In Virginia, Harris held a five-percentage-point lead, compared with Biden, who was only narrowly ahead of Trump in polls in the same state, according to the Times. Harris did slightly better than Biden in both states among Black voters, younger voters and women.
