‘She Totally Messed Up’: How Kamala Harris Wasted a Year to Make Her Point
Kamala Harris has kept the door open to run for president again in 2028. What she has failed to do over the past year, even the former vice president’s supporters and allies say, is give voters a reason to reconsider if she did.
For HarrisAccording to interviews with nearly 20 Democratic Party donors and strategists in California and across the country, it was a missed opportunity to redefine itself — and ultimately a lost year.
“She completely ruined everything,” said Doug Hermanwho was one of the main mail strategists for that of Barack Obama 2008 and 2012 campaigns. “She didn’t come into the mix.”
Harris offered voters almost nothing in terms of details on how she would transform a Democratic Party hungry for change after another term. Donald Trump. She has not explained how she plans to increase her own appeal among voters who rejected her, and she remains more reticent toward the media than ever, continuing to favor appearances before friendly audiences and sometimes drawing criticism for shutting out news organizations altogether. She has completely avoided the ideological civil war ravaging Democrats and has acted more like a party elder at a time when voters and donors are demanding a break with the past.
