It's hard for me to believe that the Democrats might run Kamala Harris for president again after her campaign was such a disaster in 2024.
Not only did President Donald Trump clean her clock, even getting more of the popular vote, but he also beat her in all the swing states. Plus she spent and lost a ton of money in a futile cause, by some estimates, $1.5 billion over the course of an abbreviated campaign.
Polls have her up for 2028, though, so I'm all in for it. That should be great fun to watch her go down in flames again. It does sound like she's gearing up for it with her current statements.

Harris was the keynote speaker in New Orleans at the Masquerade Sneaker Ball on Friday. "Masquerade" was perhaps the right word because she tried to instruct people in "ruthlessness."

She spoke about standing up to a "broken status quo." You mean like the mess we had under you and Joe Biden?
She spoke about millions in dark money. Yep, Dems are wallowing in it.
She spoke about knowing how to fight. Some reminded her that, in 2024, she wasn't even able to clearly state anything she would do differently from Joe Biden. "Not a thing that comes to mind," she said at the time.

Harris capped it off by saying the Democrats had to get "comfortable" with adopting a certain "ruthlessness" in their approach.
Is she kidding? Can we say inciting? Has she watched what Democrats have done over the last 10 years to Trump? Has she heard about the assassination attempts? How about what happened to Turning Point USA co-founder Charlie Kirk? And that's just a few of the things. There are so many, many more.
Harris tries to redefine the word into something that sounds more like being uncompromising. But that's not what it means, and that's not how it would likely be taken. "That fights back hard when they threaten the power of the people" - what does that even mean? Again, it sounds like incitement.
Plus, this is what she's focused on? It's always what they have been focused on for the past 10 years. Fighting President Trump and Republicans to try to grab power. They are never concentrated on how to make things better for the American people with good policy. That's why she was never able to articulate a clear idea of what she intended to do if she won - she didn't have one. And that's why she lost. This is all she ever talks about - a jumble of buzzwords that she thinks sounds like she's saying something, but really says a whole lot of nothing.
So please, Democrats, do make her your nominee.
She calls for ruthlessness but she embodies witlessness. https://t.co/uEOsAvtDSg
