Harris needs to step away from politics for her own good. She’s proven time and again she’ll never be successful at it.
And Kamala Harris has been deemed delusional after making this absurd statement during a humiliating interview.
Kamala Harris is clinging to her fading spotlight, boldly declaring herself a powerhouse in the Democratic Party even after her embarrassing defeat in November and the shady way she replaced Joe Biden for the Democratic nomination.
“I was the Democratic nominee for president,” Harris said to the Wall Street Journal last week. “I came close to winning. Of course I do.”
While hawking her new book 107 Days in Philadelphia—a supposed recap of her failed 2024 bid against President Donald Trump—Harris dodged questions about whether this promo tour signals a desperate attempt to claw her way back for a 2028 run.
Insiders are whispering to the Journal that the former VP’s book, along with the backlash it’s stirring, exposes just how much Harris’s grip on leadership is slipping away.
Per what they told the Journal, longtime allies are ditching Harris, ready to turn the page, as louder voices in the Democratic ranks blast her comeback efforts, zeroing in on the book’s jabs at ex-President Joe Biden and her botched picks for running mate before landing on Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz.
In the pages, she paints Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro as too ambitious and labels former-Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, who’s openly g*y, as a political gamble next to a black woman like herself.
Harris’s former communications director, Ashley Etienne, slammed the book as a squandered chance, arguing it should have spotlighted the Biden team’s wins and her groundbreaking role as the first female VP.
“I would have advised her to write a different book, one that cements her legacy,” Etienne said to the Journal.
Faiz Shakir, the guy who steered Bernie Sanders’s 2020 White House bid, piled on, saying the book just confirms all the red flags folks had about Harris from the start.
“Her campaign struggled with being a campaign of conviction, of clarity, of deep, principled positions,” he stated.
“It’s a sign of weak leadership to just start blaming these kind of outside actors for your own shortcomings. It hurts the Democratic Party.”
But Harris is pushing back, swearing up and down that it’s no juicy exposé, just her personal diary of the presidential grind.
Harris’ biggest albatross? Her stone-cold silence as Biden’s cognitive decline spiraled out of control right under her nose.
In the book, she downplays it, admitting Biden “got tired,” but insisting, “I don’t believe it was incapacity. If I believed that, I would have said so. As loyal as I am to President Biden, I am more loyal to my country.”
Adding fuel to the fire, Harris recently ticked off the radical left faction by snubbing socialist Zohran Mamdani in an MSNBC chat, vaguely backing “the Democrat” in the New York City mayor’s race instead of naming names. Yet in the Journal sit-down, she was specific: “No, I did endorse Mamdani.”
Probed on the escalating clashes between the party’s squishy moderates and its fire-breathing progressives—erupting in NYC and beyond—Harris brushed it off with, “There is a lot of consensus around the priorities of this moment, and that’s where I’m focused.”
Meanwhile, the ex-VP inked a deal with Hollywood heavyweight Creative Artists Agency back in February to handle her speaking gigs and publishing deals, and sources tell the Journal that she’s commanding a whopping $250,000 per pop on the lecture circuit.
This whole saga reeks of a politician out of touch, scrambling to rewrite her flop of a legacy while the Democratic Party fractures under the weight of its own contradictions.
As Trump settles back into the White House, Harris’s maneuvers just highlight how the left’s elite are more focused on infighting and cash grabs than fixing the mess they made for everyday Americans.
