Opinion | Kamala Harris 2028?

If Kamala Harris honestly wanted to compete for the 2028 nomination, there —— I think her best bet would have been to write a searingly honest, burn it all down, tell the truth about her own mistakes, show some real humility, but also some real kind of spine in saying, like, this —— I took bad advice and I’m never going to do that again. And here’s how I would have done it differently, I think. I think there was another book that she could have written that could have been a real scorcher, really indicting the Democratic establishment and saying: I know this because I was a part of it. And I think for me, after Biden dropped out, I think I felt a certain amount of projection of those hopes onto personally, a projection of those hopes onto Kamala Harris that perhaps she would start to speak the truth. But I think this book reveals that the truth is that she’s a kind of bog-standard politician who just doesn’t really have a lot of ideas and worked her way up inside the technocratic machine that is the contemporary Democratic Party. And I don’t think a person like that should be the nominee in 2028. And I certainly pray that they won’t be the nominee in 2028, regardless of who the Republicans nominate.
