Despite the media frenzy, Williams has previously addressed his brief relationship with Harris in a post that remains online. He clarified, “We briefly dated about 20 years ago when we were both single. So what? I have great respect for Sen. Harris. I have to wonder if the same stories about her dating history would have been written if she were a male candidate?” This statement reflects his respect for Harris and his frustration with the double standards often applied to female politicians.
Williams’ social media activity has been closely watched since it became apparent that Harris was a likely candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination. Initially, he seemed hesitant to endorse her, reposting news of Biden’s withdrawal with an endorsement for Maryland Governor Wes Moore, despite Moore not expressing any intention to run.

As Williams voiced his support for Moore, he explained his reasoning in a post: “Is anyone surprised I am interested in a politician who also went to the Naval Academy and whose leadership has impressed me?” His admiration for Moore’s leadership and shared background at the Naval Academy influenced his initial public support.
Ultimately, Williams did show support for Harris by reposting Moore’s endorsement of her. He later screenshot this action with the caption, “Reminding folks I RT’d this.” This subtle move indicated his reluctant but present support for Harris’ candidacy.
Meanwhile, British TV journalist Piers Morgan has weighed in on Harris’ candidacy, calling her the “most far-left senator” in modern history. He predicted that the “honeymoon” period of her campaign would be short-lived. Morgan shared these thoughts during an appearance on Fox News Saturday Night, hosted by Jimmy Failla.
Morgan believes Harris faces significant challenges against Trump in the upcoming election. He suggested that Biden was pressured to withdraw from the race by Democratic Party elites, comparing their tactics to those of the ruthless characters in the film “Goodfellas.” Morgan remarked, “I think the whole thing has been a fascinating exercise in the ruthless betrayal nature of politics. One minute, they are all over you like a rash, and the next minute, you are a rash.”

Morgan also addressed what he perceives as media “propaganda” favoring Harris, often overlooking her record and unpopularity. He pointed out the contrast between her current portrayal and her past polling results, joking that “when she dropped out, she was polling behind ISIS.”
Morgan concluded by predicting a short-lived honeymoon period for Harris’ campaign. “Now we are being told she’s the greatest person in the world despite the fact she ran for president, and when she dropped out, she was polling behind ISIS,” Failla quipped. Morgan added, “She’s getting a fantastically amazing honeymoon, and it’s going to last about a week. Then reality will kick in, and Donald Trump will start going very hard, as he already is about her record, and her record is she is literally, probably the most far-left senator in modern American history.”
As the 2024 election approaches, the dynamics between media coverage, political endorsements, and candidate criticisms will continue to shape the narrative. Montel Williams’ strong stance against media inquiries and Piers Morgan’s critical analysis of Harris’ candidacy reflect the complex and often contentious nature of political discourse in America today.
