Harris Stumbles Out of the Gate on Book Tour
The former vice president reminds us that she is not only bad at communicating but also has nothing to say that’s worth hearing.
2024 Democrat presidential nominee Kamala Harris is currently on a media tour trying to sell her book, 107 Days, which officially hit the shelves this week. It’s a book that few will read. Even Harris herself likely hasn’t read it.
Thus far, the media tour has not gone well for the former VP. She has successfully reminded the American people why she lost to Donald Trump.
During an interview on MSNBC, Harris made several gaffes. The host, Rachel Maddow (a lesbian), lamented that former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg wasn’t her running mate because he was gay. “To be a black woman running for president of the United States and as a vice presidential running mate, a gay man, with the stakes being so high … it would be a real risk,” Harris responded to an incredulous Maddow.
Kamala Harris tells Rachel Maddow that she didn’t say Pete Buttigieg wasn’t picked to be VP because he was gay, and then she gives a two minute word salad anser confirming what she wrote in the book, that she didn’t pick him because he’s gay 😂

Buttigieg retorted by saying that he believes in “giving Americans more credit.” He’s uninterested in giving Harris much of an out since he’s eyeing another presidential bid in 2028.
Harris also told Maddow that President Trump was like a communist dictator. Then later in the interview, she endorsed New York City mayoral candidate Zorhan Mamdani — a literal communist. Perhaps she meant “fascist,” which is often mischaracterized as a far-right political position. In any event, both communism and fascism are left-wing ideologies, and neither characterization is accurate of Trump.
On ABC’s “The View,” Harris said her biggest failure was not differentiating herself from President Joe Biden. Recall that less than a month before the election, “The View” co-host Sunny Hostin asked Harris, “Would you have done something differently than President Biden during the past four years?” She was trying to toss Harris a softball question, since Biden and his policies were incredibly unpopular. At the time, though, Harris told her that “there is not a thing that comes to mind.”

However, in this week’s interview, Harris made it clear that she utterly failed to grasp that voters were desperate for her to set herself apart. She then tried to alleviate Hostin’s fear that the question in 2024 may have marked the downward turning point in her campaign. (This is ironic since her modus operandi has been to blame everyone else but herself.)
She also asserted that she lost because she didn’t have enough time to campaign. This is probably not true because more time was her enemy. The longer Harris was in the spotlight, the more the American people were unimpressed by her lackluster political acumen.
In many of her recent interviews, Harris has also claimed that the 2024 election was the closest in the 21st century.

Considering that Donald Trump won the Electoral College and the popular vote, that is quite a claim — and an inaccurate one, at that. Trump chimed in by saying: "Kamala’s ‘closest in the 21st Century’ soundbite was, like everything else in the Democrat Party, A TOTAL LIE! I expect an apology. Thank you for your attention to this matter!”
More importantly than all of Harris’s gaffes, her book tour has laid bare the seething civil war within the Democrat Party. Democrat operatives criticized her book as highlighting her poor political sense. A columnist for The New York Times blasted the book as a finger-pointing tell-all that blames everyone but herself. Former CNN reporter Chris Cillizza wrote on his Substack, “Harris’ recent media tour to tout her memoir — ‘107 Days’ — has reminded me of something I think I have long known: She is simply not a very good politician. And she hasn’t gotten much better over her decades in the business.”
Harris has decided to immortalize her short and “historic” campaign with a book that blames everyone but herself for the loss in last year’s presidential race. She continues to epitomize victimitis, which is particularly prevalent on the Left. As her book tour continues, we can only thank God that He did not place her at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
