Following a crushing defeat in the 2024 presidential election, Vice President Kamala Harris is signaling her intent to remain a central figure in Democratic politics. According to a recent Politico report, Harris is keeping her options open, with potential ambitions to run for president again or pursue the governorship of California.
Despite overseeing a campaign that saw Democrats lose the White House and the U.S. Senate, Harris has reportedly adopted a new mantra in private conversations: “I am staying in the fight.”
In phone calls with allies and aides, Harris has expressed her determination to reassert her leadership within the Democratic Party. Her goal appears to be becoming a key opposition voice against President-elect Donald Trump as he begins his second term.
“She doesn’t have to decide if she wants to run for something again in the next six months,” a former Harris aide told Politico.
Harris’s immediate focus may involve creating an entity to keep her politically active and connected. Such an organization would allow her to travel, deliver speeches, and maintain her network of political relationships.
“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,” said one source close to Harris.
Brian Brokaw, another former aide, described Harris as deliberate in her decision-making process. “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,” Brokaw told Politico.
The 2024 Democratic defeat has ignited a wave of infighting within the party, with various factions pointing fingers. Some Democrats have criticized President Joe Biden for staying in the race too long, arguing that his late-stage candidacy limited Harris’s ability to consolidate party support.
Others have blamed Harris herself, accusing her campaign of poor decision-making and prioritizing lavish celebrity fundraisers over grassroots outreach. Additionally, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) controversially suggested a Jewish political group played a role in the party’s downfall, a claim that sparked backlash from several quarters.
Harris faces significant hurdles in any potential future campaign. Her tenure as vice president has been marked by criticism, with detractors questioning her ability to effectively lead and connect with voters. Polls during the 2024 campaign indicated low favorability ratings, particularly among independents and moderate Democrats.
Furthermore, the Democratic Party is deeply divided, with progressive and establishment wings vying for influence. Harris must navigate these internal tensions if she hopes to emerge as a unifying figure in the years ahead.
One potential path for Harris is a gubernatorial run in California, where she previously served as attorney general and remains a prominent figure. The state’s liberal electorate and her established political base could provide a more favorable landscape than the national stage.
Alternatively, Harris may prepare for another presidential bid, using the next four years to rebuild her political image and expand her support base. This would likely involve distancing herself from the 2024 campaign’s failures and crafting a more compelling vision for the future.
In the immediate term, Harris appears focused on becoming a leading voice against Trump’s administration. Her allies believe she can leverage her platform as a former vice president to critique Republican policies and rally Democratic opposition.
“She has an opportunity to be a prominent leader in the fight against Trump’s agenda,” said a Democratic strategist. “But she needs to focus on connecting with voters and addressing the concerns that were overlooked during the campaign.”
For Harris, the next steps are crucial in shaping her political legacy. Whether she chooses to run for office again or assume a different role in the Democratic Party, her actions in the coming months will determine her relevance in a post-Biden political landscape.
Harris’s repeated assertion that she is “staying in the fight” suggests she has no plans to retreat from public life. However, her ability to rebuild trust within the Democratic base and broaden her appeal remains an open question.
As Democrats regroup after their 2024 defeat, Harris’s trajectory will likely reflect broader debates about the party’s future direction. Can she rise above internal divisions and position herself as a leader for the next generation, or will the scars of 2024 prove too deep to overcome?
The political spotlight on Kamala Harris is far from dimmed. Whether as a candidate or a prominent voice for the opposition, her next moves will undoubtedly shape the future of the Democratic Party—and her own career.
She should just hang it up. She is very incompetent and I don’t believe fit for any office within the government period. I think California has had enough of her too. Look at where we are with illegals coming into this country killing, raping, lethal drugs killing citizens. Her along with DemoRATic governors making threats NOT to co-operate with ICE and the deportation of illegals. The American Citizens voted your ass in and it is up to you to protect them not put them in danger as all you sick twisted people have. I understand them wanting the American dream but all you have done it put America in danger. Let them go thru the proper process not INVADE our country with you all spending billions on them while American citizens are struggling and are homeless, hungry and sick. Diseases brought in her that the US hasn’t seen in years. STOP THE DAM INSANITY AND DEPORT ALL.
sclerogirl, stated concisely and all true! I add let us remind ourselves of the even bigger picture of what is actually going on!
She can always return to her old job at McDonald’s
The American people have spoken. For the democrats to keep saying they are going to spend the next four years working AGAINST Trump just shows how stupid they are. Maybe they should try just once working FOR the USA and helping Trump to clean up the mess they have made of this country. Why do democrats think voters will vote for people that are willing to destroy this country just so they can have all the power?
Julie, they will not do that and have committed body, mind and soul to the darkest powers of the universe so the great battle is on!
Ephesians 6:10-12 “Finally, be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power. 11Put on the full armor of God, so that you can make your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this world’s darkness, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.”
Amen.
Another shade of the KamaChamelon demonically influenced modern day Whore of Babylon is seeking to maintain that evil influence on those that Satan wants to manipulate and control as tools for division ultimately to bring on destruction!
The old adage of not trusting someone as far as you can throw them isn’t even adequate here because she is as sinister and evil as anything I’ve ever observed or witnessed in action during my lifetime so far! And to me the one that will top her, Biden, Clintons, Schumer, Pelosi, Schiff, Cheney’s, Romney, McConnell and all the many others is Satan himself via the Antichrist!
“Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned” doesn’t even scratch the surface of what is going on in her!
Meanwhile the other very prominent “Servant of Satan Lying Biden” himself is playing let’s see if we can trigger “Nuclear War” by feeding that other “puppet megalomaniac” Zelinsky by feeding him “Nuclear Tipped ICBM Warheads” to threaten Russia with; all because they failed to trick the American People to keep them in those high government offices to control the nation’s trajectory! And that says so much about how these devils see this world and how not to bring on Peace but Annihilation of it all; Satan’s plan!
Make no mistake about it, the Devil is ramping up all possibilities because his time like theirs is growing extremely short and God’s Final Judgment is coming Fast and Furiously!
please cami go away. thank you
Comiala Harris should note be allowed to run for any elected office but should be charges with sedition or treason for her unlawfully allowing illegal criminal elements like Tran de Agua and MS13 into OUR country. WE the People must stand up to these corrupt elected officials who need to be charges with their crimes and arrested. No one is above the law!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Reginald P Zenkewich, you are correct and let us not forget she was installed into that position of “presidential candidate” in a manner of “deception and trickery by evil forces” just like that NY State Governor Hochul was “without actually winning a primary or getting any delegate votes not one;” she was at the back of the pack, nobody wanted her yet “she was positioned by evil Biden to be the choice!” I say “KamaChameleon was Satan’s choice” to run for president as she is a modern “Whore of Babylon” and as evil as they come! Her great Granddad was none other than “Hamilton Brown a slave trader of blacks, white and children” in his day which does tie in how “diabolical forces have been at work in that family for centuries” and this whore was “planned to do more of the Devil’s work which she’s been doing no doubt and now admits she wants to continue,” supporting her real daddy in hell!

In case some have difficulty seeing reality we are in the Latter Days and the Devil is fighting fiercely to get his due before he is gone forever tormented in the bottomless pit!
1 Timothy 4:1 ESV “Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith by devoting themselves to deceitful spirits and teachings of demons,”
This just shows how stupid democrats really are Harris gets her ass handed to her by the American people and this asshole thinks she still can become president again. What is she doing taken lessons from 2 time looser Hillary Clinton that’s another asshole who doesn’t get it Americans hate her and the Obama’s.
Harris is joining their club. Does she really think people are going to invest in her again when they lost 1.5 BILLION DOLLARS. They are stupid but not that stupid they weren’t investing in you or your agendas the were just trying to defeat Trump that’s all they all knew you were useless they just didn’t want TRUMP to win. Period. Go home Harris lick your wounds and find a new career. Don’t know if California will still welcome you anymore.
Harris just proved one thing democrats are really stupid all the money you wasted on Harris would never put a dumbass as president. She was the worst VP in America’s history accomplishment nothing destroyed our borders put inflation out of control wasted Trillions of taxpayers dollars and have absolutely nothing to show for it. And you dumbass wonder why you lost. People were giving her campaign money not because they believe in democrats agendas they just didn’t want to see Trump win. So democrats lost a lot more than the election you lost everyone’s respect and you will never recover from that lost.
If the same democrats are in office 4 years from now every state will be so RED you will be bankrupt and lose every election. Harris is deadwood accomplishment nothing but not surprising she never did anything on her own other people pushed her and did all the leg work. I wouldn’t hire her even to make French fries. Good luck California dumbo the circus is coming home.
Why doesn’t she wise up and follow the ilk of Hillary Clinton and just fade into the sunset. Let a MAN do the right thing! She already proved she can’t!
It is SO damned sad when people like Harris attempt to hang on. First, she has NEVER worked a day in her life really. She has been leg upped in everything she has done.
There are 11% more democrats than republicans. She lost by 4% and lost in 90% of the counties in the USA.
This means that he DEMOCRATS have decided she is incapable and not supportable. That she does NOT have what it takes to be a leader.
THe pictures of her in tears after the elections proves her incapability.
Just move on Harris, your value in politics has ended. The Dems used you and you proved inadequate in response.
The sooner that she realize
