"Lightning bolt"- Shark Tank's Kevin O'Leary discusses about the Democrat's 2024 performance 

Shark Tank investor Kevin O'Leary joined "America's Newsroom" on Fox News shortly after the US Presidential election results were announced. Kevin discussed the loopholes that cost Democrats a downfall, citing the leadership was not strong.

The Fox News reporter presented the statistics of Trump's vote gains, citing the data that reflected he won over all the demographics, resulting in his eventual win in the Presidential election of 2024. After the Presidential election results, Shark Tank investor Kevin O'Leary gave a reference to a "football team" and how he would make sure to put the "best player" in action.

Quoting this, a Fox News reporter asked Kevin about his views on what Democrats missed during their 2024 election; he said that neglecting the needs of small businesses cost them their failure. He called the small businessman the "backbone" of the US economy and said they sensed the difference between 21% and 28% corporate tax.

He further remarked:

"Taxing unrealized capital gains. That, I can assure you, was a Lightning bolt through that constituency. I am an advocate for small businesses. That freaked them out. They thought it was Unamerican. It wasn't really the American dream to have the government take money from you before."
