Kamala Harris Drops Bombshell: Former VP Suggests Another Presidential Bid Amidst Poll Lags
In a bombshell interview airing on BBC, former US Vice President Kamala Harris left no doubt that she is not done with politics and may make another bid for the presidency in 2028. When asked if she was considering running again, Harris cryptically stated that she would "possibly" be the next president, sending shockwaves through Washington.
Harris downplayed her decision, insisting she had yet to make a final call, but maintained confidence that eventually, there will be a woman in the White House. Emphasizing her commitment to public service, which has defined her career, Harris bluntly stated that "I am not done."
When confronted with polls indicating she may struggle to secure the Democratic ticket, Harris took a contrarian stance, dismissing them as untrustworthy. She recalled how polls failed her during previous election bids and urged voters to disregard such forecasts.
The interview also saw Harris unleashing scathing attacks on former President Donald Trump, branding him a "tyrant" with "thin skin." The former president had previously celebrated the suspension of late-night comedian Jimmy Kimmel from ABC over jokes perceived as criticizing Trump. Harris described this episode as a prime example of Trump's attempts to intimidate and silence critics using the justice system.
The Biden administration responded swiftly, labeling Harris' comments about her 2024 campaign "absurd lies." Critics have also accused Harris of glossing over her own campaign's shortcomings, including her failure to connect with working-class voters. Moreover, some argue that Harris has not adequately acknowledged the role played by President Joe Biden's uncritical support for Israel's war on Gaza in alienating certain voter groups.
Harris is currently promoting her book, "107 Days," which chronicles her brief 2024 presidential campaign. As she embarks on an international book tour, it remains to be seen whether her words and actions will translate into renewed momentum for a future White House bid.
