Alex Soros, the heir to George Soros’s billion-dollar left-wing nonprofit empire and one of the largest donors to the failed Harris-Walz campaign, is downplaying Democrat losses in the 2024 U.S. elections by pointing to “unstoppable global forces” while ignoring failed Democrat policies for driving a decisive Republican win.
Following the crushing defeat of Democrats in the 2024 elections on Tuesday, Alex Soros — who, along with his father, were the top donors to Harris’ failed efforts, having contributed over $100 million — took to social media in an attempt to reframe the loss.
Rather than addressing policy issues, Soros claimed that Democrat setbacks were part of a larger global anti-incumbent trend, citing “economic and geopolitical factors” affecting all major democracies this year.
“Before you beat yourself up about the elections pls read this,” he wrote, pointing to a Financial Times analysis.
“The incumbents in every single one of the 10 major countries that have been tracked by the ParlGov global research project and held national elections in 2024 were given a kicking by voters,” he continued.
“This is the first time this has ever happened in almost 120 years of records,” he added.
