Kamala Harris Is Telling People She Will Continue In Politics But No One Believes Her

Center square on The View or bust.

Although she can't go that route, can she? She can't speak extemporaneously and her brain rebels against her taking any actual position (except for being ecstatically pro-abortion).

If she does "find her voice" and start spouting out her hard left positions again, everyone will know she was a filthy liar when she ran in 2024.

So maybe she does have no other choice but to make a doomed run at another office.

Kamala Harris has been lying low since her defeat in the presidential race, unwinding with family and senior aides in Hawaii before heading back to the nation's capital.

But privately, the vice president has been instructing advisers and allies to keep her options open -- whether for a possible 2028 presidential run, or even to run for governor in her home state of California in two years. As Harris has repeated in phone calls, "I am staying in the fight."

She is expected to explore those and other possible paths forward with family members over the winter holiday season, according to five people in the Harris inner circle, who were granted anonymity to discuss internal dynamics. Her deliberations follow an extraordinary four months in which Harris went from President Joe Biden's running mate to the top of the ticket, reenergizing Democrats before ultimately crashing on election night.

"She doesn't have to decide if she wants to run for something again in the next six months," said one former Harris campaign aide. "The natural thing to do would be to set up some type of entity that would give her the opportunity to travel and give speeches and preserve her political relationships."

Oh she wants to start a Global Clinton Initiative-like grift that poses as a charity but actually exists to pay her a salary, pay for her staff, pay travel including car and chaufeur and pay for a ritzy complex of offices in a major city.

I don't think people will pay for that, though. She has no political future and therefore no one is interested in paying her for future political favors she cannot deliver on.


Most immediately, Harris and her advisers are working to define how and when she will speak out against Donald Trump and reassert her own role in the Democratic Party. Closing out her term as vice president, she's set to preside over certifying the November election she lost to Trump, and then appear at the once-and-future president's inauguration on Jan. 20.

"There will be a desire to hear her voice, and there won't be a vacuum for long," a person close to Harris said.

Is there? Is there such a desire?


At the same time, Harris and her husband, Doug Emhoff, will have a long checklist to plow through before they leave the Naval Observatory for good.

They have to decide whether they'll take up permanent residence at their home in Los Angeles, or establish a base elsewhere. No matter where Harris and her family live, some around her have expressed concerns about safety, as her Secret Service protection expires six months after stepping away.

Everyone fears that without the Secret Service, Slugger Emhoff will start punching her.


Following her meteoric rise in Washington and California, there are internal questions about standing up a federal committee to raise money. It will be the first time in two decades that the former senator and career prosecutor will be out of public office. That means she'll be standing up a personal office and nurturing her massive online presence without the organizing principle of day-to-day governing.

...

But others close to Harris believe that the current news cycle and speed at which the Democratic Party might start making decisions will force Harris, who tends to deliberate for long periods, to make some early decisions.

She ran for president without settling on a position profile. So this could take a while.

In interviews with Harris aides and confidants, as well as Democratic luminaries, there's broad acknowledgment that Harris represents an "X factor" in the next Democratic primary.

She will not be a factor of any letter. She already got zero primary votes in a primary, and that was before people knew she could not run a campaign or win a presidential election.


The good news for Harris, according to her allies, is that her standing in the party increased the longer that she ran her short campaign, which is rare in electoral politics. Her allies believe that the toxicity that surrounded John Kerry or Hillary Clinton after their losses is unlikely to taint Harris' political future in the same way.

What?

They point to her running a race as a more moderate candidate (a break from her 2019 primary run) as a boon to whatever choice she ends up making as the party seems poised to do its own writ large move to the center.

"She proved a lot of skeptics wrong as a political athlete. And her standing with the public is as good as any Democrats with the name I.D. that she has," a Harris ally told POLITICO.

Okay sure.

A snap poll of the 2028 field found Harris at 41 percent, a significant lead over the others: Gavin Newsom, Josh Shapiro, Tim Walz, Pete Buttigieg, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Gretchen Whitmer, JB Pritzker, Andy Beshear and several others who all were in single digits.

I mean, this does point out something important: We can goof on Harris's chances for being the nominee again, but... who else do they have?


But Harris' advantages are not unique. Similar surveys taken in the two months after the 2016 campaign, for example, found Clinton with a large lead for 2020, with majorities of Democrats saying they wanted her to run in the next cycle.

"I can't conceivably imagine the party turning to her a second time," said one Democratic strategist granted anonymity to speak candidly.

If she opts not to run in 2028, the earliest clues about her political future could come around whether she runs to succeed Newsom in California, a prospect POLITICO first reported in May. Her office pushed back strongly at the time. Yet the mere idea of her running again in California has frozen the field and kept some fundraisers on the sidelines.

While there's disagreement among people who know Harris well about what office she should run for, there's emerging consensus that she probably can't do both -- compete for governor and then turn around and start a presidential campaign a few weeks later.

The calendar alone would make that difficult, with the 2028 primary gearing up immediately after the midterm elections. Harris confidants also point to the demands on a governor's time, and the expectation of the electorate that she would stay home and dig into the state's mounting challenges around the high cost of living, homelessness and crime.

"It's a real job," is how one of the people close to her put it, contending they were at first dismissive of the idea she might do it, but now feel like it's possible.

Has she ever had a real job? The prospect must be daunting for her.

...

"She is not someone who makes rash decisions. She takes, sometimes, a painfully long time to make decisions. So I would pretty much guarantee you she has no idea what her next move is," said Brian Brokaw, a former Harris aide who has remained close to her circle.

"Could she run for governor? Yes. Do I think she wants to run for governor? Probably not. Could she win? Definitely. Would she like the job? I don't know. Could she run for president again? Yes," Brokaw said. "Would she have a whole bunch of skepticism from the outset, because she has run in a full-length Democratic primary where [in 2019] she didn't even make it long enough to be in the Iowa caucus, and then she was the nominee this year?"

I saw someone speculate that this nonsense article was pushed to Politico so that Harris can continue fundraising to pay off her $18 million debt.

Yes, she does have name recognition, which is far from nothing.

But she's still a fucking terrible candidate. Even when she was much more natural in 2019 and every single candidate was trying to out-woke each other so she could say what she actually meant, she was offputting and dropped out before a single vote was cast.

She'll use her name recognition to get funding, but it'll be wasted again, and I suspect that she'll end up with the same terrible campaign team who will launder the money once more.

Newsom is the obvious choice, but he's going to campaign terribly in IA and SC, so his star will diminish quickly.

Whitmer can actually campaign, but she's got a host of shit in her past as governor that's going to rub people the wrong way.

You don't have to have done things to get people to vote for you. You just have to get people to vote for you. Do people vote based on previous accomplishments? If so, I can give you a long list of people who did have accomplishments who went no where in politics.

Also, Biden did nothing as VP...and we know how 2020 went.

Western Lensman @WesternLensman Nov 24
🚨NEW: Adam Schiff doesn’t believe that Trump AG pick Pam Bondi should be “prosecuting the prosecutors."

"Is she going to continue to say that the Justice Department should be prosecuting prosecutors who brought valid evidence before a grand jury?"

“A grand jury found probable cause to believe Donald Trump committed crimes. That's not a basis to go after them."

The American people who gave a mandate to Trump disagree, Adam.

The people responsible for the “Get Trump” op at the Biden DOJ must be held to account.

Mike Davis @mrddmia Nov 24
Dear @AdamSchiff:
A federal grand jury in Ft. Pierce, FL must probe whether agents, prosecutors and other co-conspirators in FL, DC, NY, and AZ waged illegal lawfare and election interference against Trump, his aides, and his allies.

If Trump mostly fails at taming the bureaucracy though the left will continue to celebrate insanity and believe they can just cheat/destroy their way to victory in 2028 like they did in 2020.

151 The anti-semitism is now too entrenched in the Dem party; a white Jew like Shapiro could never win their nomination.

I agree that Wes Moore is their most likely up and comer; but he’s a Colin Allred type candidate. Here in Texas, Allred was recruited to run against Cruz; relatively young, ex football player, telegenic, generically non threatening moderate (although Cruz got some hits in on the gender stuff). On paper Allred seemed like the perfect candidate. But he was too generic, too dull, too much of a character chosen by central casting, rather than a person. He never excited any real enthusiasm and only got 44% of the vote.

Judge Tanya Chutkan will need to approve the request before the case is dismissed.

Fifty quatloos Commie Chutkan will do an Emmett Sullivan and refuse to dismiss the charges. She'll keep the case alive somehow and the DC Fed Court of Appeals will back her. As it did Sullivan when he refused to agree with the DoJ prosecutor's filing to dismiss charges against Gen. Mike Flynn.

In a final act of partisanship and poor legal judgement, Jack Smith dismisses the J6 case "without prejudice" to keep alive Trump haters hope this garbage case can somehow be resurrected when he leaves office.

Smith is such a dirtbag

Julie Kelly @julie_kelly2 7m
Smith continues to misrepresent his case. He did this in the superseding indictment as well post SCOTUS immunity opinion. Although Smith charged Trump with acts that allegedly occurred *while* in office, he changed his description from "former president" to "private citizen"

Julie Kelly @julie_kelly2 1m
This is another lie.

Smith had to water down his initial indictment by several pages following immunity opinion. What remained would never have passed another immunity test by SCOTUS.

Further, SCOTUS also overturned how DOJ applied 1512c2, which represented 2 of the 4 counts in the J6 indictment.

Smith is a liar, a fraud, and potentially a rogue criminal and both Congress and a Trump DOJ must make a full blown and PUBLIC investigation into the special counsel's office a top priority.

166 Raw Story: Kamala Harris eyes re-run for White House: Politico claimed the Democratic nominee who was soundly beaten by President-elect Donald Trump is considering returning to the campaign trail in 2028.

“Privately, the vice president has been instructing advisers and allies to keep her options open — whether for a possible 2028 presidential run, or even to run for governor in her home state of California in two years,” the report stated.

A white man will be the nominee. Probably Beshear, Shapiro , or Newsom. Even in 2020 many that supported Harris voted for Biden as they felt he was a safer pick.

Biden's did fine in interviews. But by 2024's SOTU you could see he aged. Yet he held his own for that great event. The fact they wanted to get the debates done early was a tell. I doubt VP Harris will be the nominee again. She was heroic, but lacked creds on some level.

she would do as well as a candidate as she did in the 2020 primaries. She’s just not a great presidential candidate, I’m excited about other potential options like Whitmer, Shapiro, or Fetterman. Almost zero chance either of those candidates gets completely frozen out of the Blue Wall.

There are obvious reasons for India then to throw its weight behind the Republican and Vance's wife is a good way to sell that. Of course Kamala herself is half Indian and ran as black so it is amusing.

224 206 The simple reason Kamala won’t get the Dem nomination for Governor of California is that there are plenty of other ambitious California Dems who will be saying to themselves “I could be Governor, why should I stand aside for that idiot?”

She stepped outside the CA machine once she accepted Biden's offer to be his VP. She became the machines representative in DC, but her place in line was done.

Next in line for Newsom's job should be the sitting AG or Lieutenant Governor. A non-office holder who's lived and worked in DC and isn't even a Senator for the past 4 years just doesn't have that priority to the machine anymore.

If she runs for CA governor, she'll end up 4th place in the jungle primary behind the AG and LG and the Republican nominee, and her team will probably figure that out pretty quickly.

226 "There will be a desire to hear her voice, and there won't be a vacuum for long," a person close to Harris said.

What desire? Where? I see no desire.

There was a desire to hear from Kamala Harris about two months ago.

Over half the country decided they didn’t desire to hear from Kamala after January 20, 2025.

The most hilarious part is that you believe there’s a “vacuum” in the American political atmosphere because Kamala Harris is silent.

Over half of Americans voted the way they did because they know the only vacuum around here is between Kamala’s ears.

236 OK I'm going to share a bit of perspective on the left that I recently read about that I think is enlightening.

When WW2 was wrapping up, everyone knew the Germans were going to lose and the war was going to be over soon. The intelligentsia and academia of Europe and the US started discussing what to do next. Their entire discussion was dominated, understandably, by Hitler and his rise to power, and how to prevent that from ever taking place again.

They studied all that and came to the conclusion that the real problem here was borders, differences between people, and a lack of openness in culture. So they focused on a solution involving inclusion, ending individualism, ending borders and ending authoritarianism.

Now, 90 years after Hitler took power the same template controls the left's every concept. Most of the founding ideas modern leftism is based on are sketchy if even remembered by most of its proponents. The fact that they utterly ignored nearly everything that put Hitler in power and Fascism stood for doesn't bother them at all, they have their theory.

260 2/2:

The thing is, when you hear leftists call Trump "Fascist" its not based on any remote understanding of fascism, its based on their worldview which states that wars and conflict and evil stem from nation states, borders, and lack of tolerance and inclusion. They view anyone who opposes this as "fascist" because that was their answer to fascism. The fact that this has nothing to do with actual fascism is beside the point.

When you hear leftists freaking out about Trump's ascendance and the failure of their ideas, its because they think their ideas are the only thing preventing another holocaust. Its a matter of time, you see, if you don't do what they recommend, it has to happen again, because their theories are the only thing that will stop it.

Tranny bathrooms, floods of illegals, abortion, one world government, all of it stems from this set of theories: get rid of borders, just get people to like each other, and we'll live in paradise! Its not even communist. Its just idiotic nonsense.

I think it's important to remember a small event from the 2016 primary:

Trump called the Iraq War stupid, and the commentariat was aghast because there was no way that the voters would allow for a candidate who spoke poorly of their precious W whom they loved, especially in South Carolina where there were so many veterans. The establishment really pushed this line, and they probably believed it.

They really thought that W was popular with Republicans and that insulting him through the Iraq War was a death knell. They were very wrong, of course.

My point being: the establishment is vastly out of alignment with voters and think very differently from normal people. They probably think Biden was a great president.

317 I’m not the first to mention this (I just don’t remember where I read the opinion), but I don’t think Kamala has any issues speaking if she’s talking freely. She’s way left of crazy Bernie Sanders. If she’s not filtering every word to try and appear more centrist, her speaking disability diminishes considerably. I’ve seen videos of her comfortable with a California progressive presser, and she’s just talking away.

WRT her political future, while the Dems are unforgiving to their losing candidates, she remains a very progressive in good standing. She’s unlikely to feature in a national role that she isn’t appointed to, but I can see her not going away.

Besides, it remains to be seen what kind of economic poison pill the uniparty has laid in for the Trump II administration. The international conflagration is being publicly fanned, there’s likely another domestic issue intended to bring Trump’s influence to a halt, too. We’re currently just hoping that the Clinton and Obama influences have been curtailed. We may well find they were the reasonable ones.

Now the Junta structure - a grinning idiot for a figure head with a cabal behind him/her to call the shots is designed to stop someone Hitler or Caesar but given the choice between one of their own being strongman in this case or a President Trump they would still pick the strongman - they just assumed they could beat Trump with a grinning idiot because they had done so in 2020.

The cop asked how sperm got into the victim. He said his sister was a bisexual.

It’s kind of communist in the sense that Marx believed the end goal utopia would be a stateless society, free of oppression, equality, brotherhood, yadda yadda yadda., all run by the workers, themselves.

Marxism evolved in opposition to capitalism but eventually took on the anti-racism, anti-sexism, anti-LGBTQ stuff because the Marxists realized around the 1990s that their worker’s revolution would never materialize in the prosperous West, so they looked to other disaffected and marginalized groups to recruit from.

368 The Harrix/Walz ticket was the worst in my lifetime. In American history, has there been a more unelectable pair?

The real vote count, probably about 42% really voted for Harris (some precincts in Massachusetts for example had more than 200% of the actual voters turn out). But either way that's still too much for the least charismatic, most shockingly bizarre ticket in American history.

I sort of understand why they picked Walz, to a leftist he seems beefy and manly and he won a state, so he might guarantee that for Kamala. But to the rest of the nation he was bizarre unlikeable, and a soy homunculus of a man.

They tried so hard to get ahead of the "what a weird" response to Walz by calling Vance weird but... it didn't work.

And Newsom missed his moment. The problem with the democrats is they have no idea how to dislodge themselves of the extremism that the populace has just judged as ludicrous and repulsive. They're wedded to it for now. My guess is that a more moderate-seeming figure is their only chance in 2028, somebody not yet on the radar, a blank slate like Obama was in 2007.

Imagine how far gone a society has to be where having an abortion is seen as a political asset.

Yes, it's almost impossible to meet the very narrow criteria for discharging student loans. Plus, I don't think they are dischargeable at all in a normal bankruptcy proceeding. The debtor has to bring a separate proceeding in the bankruptcy to even try to discharge the loan. That's a long and expensive process with a very low chance of success. I doubt many debtors would take the chance.

It did, but we must also remember that Communists vs. National Socialists of 1930s Germany was a civil war between two competing visions of authoritarian socialism.

The Communist doesn’t hate the Fascist because they see them as evil, they actually agree on most issues outside of nationalism.

The Communist hates the Fascist because he sees him as competition for power.

They both feel much the same way about religion.

409 Newsom barely got a bill passed that will kick $300 million a year for 10 years to homeless services on BONDS. So he will be dead and gone and the bill will still be being repaid.

But the #'s of homeless will by 2028 go down because spending $1.2 billion on a problem will have SOME SUCCESS. Newsom will tout his visionary success to con his way to the White House.

Four Families control much of California. Newsom, Pelosi, Brown, and Getty. The Brown line is probably dead from no children from Jerry and the other relatives don't seem to be interested in politics or too old.
