Harris’ Releases Excerpts In Upcoming Book

At this point, it’s practically a genre of its own: “I stood by Biden until I didn’t.” Add Kamala Harris to the ever-growing list of Democrats who swore up and down that former President Joe Biden was sharp, competent, and ready for another term—only to reverse course once the political winds shifted and the Biden ship began to take on water. Her new book, complete with the now-requisite criticism of Biden’s ego and decision-making, reads less like a memoir and more like an after-action report designed to shift blame away from her own catastrophic campaign failure.

Let’s be real: Harris didn’t just walk back her support for Biden. She practically moonwalked out of the frame.

The media narrative, dutifully echoed by networks like CNN and MSNBC, had for years painted Biden as vigorous, lucid, and up to the job. Video clips that showed otherwise? Labeled “cheap fakes” and dismissed as malicious right-wing edits. But the debate happened. The dam broke. And suddenly, reporters who spent years rolling their eyes at concerns over Biden’s fitness were writing books and columns about just how bad things were inside the West Wing.


Enter Harris, stage left, with her own tell-all. Except, no one would have cared unless there was some White House gossip tucked in. So now she tells us she had “concerns” about Biden running again. She references his ego. Suggests it wasn’t “grace,” but “recklessness.” Claims she was trapped in a lose-lose situation where speaking up would have looked like ambition, but staying quiet meant complicity.

This would be compelling—if her post-Biden presidential run hadn’t been one of the most embarrassing flameouts in modern history. Kamala-Walz 2024 didn’t just fail—it collapsed in real time. Every swing state? Lost. Every narrative about her “growing popularity”? Dismantled. And yet, somehow, this spectacular defeat is still being pinned on Joe Biden.


Let’s not forget: this is the same Harris who, just months earlier, could barely bring herself to defend Biden’s mental acuity with a straight face in televised interviews. Clips have resurfaced showing her grimacing through carefully rehearsed lines about Biden being “engaged” and “sharp.” If this was a hostage situation, she was blinking in Morse code.

But the book isn’t about truth—it’s about repositioning. It’s a strategic retreat wrapped in a glossy cover and press tour soundbites. Harris’ core message? “I was right all along, and it’s not my fault.” It’s a message tailor-made for Beltway cocktail parties and CNN panels, but one that falls flat with voters who watched her flounder under the spotlight.

And let’s not forget the media’s role in this. They gave us puff pieces about Kamala’s “campaign of joy,” endlessly regurgitated the idea that she was historic, exciting, and poised for leadership—right up until the moment she nosedived. Now, they’re pivoting again, eager to promote the idea that her campaign was doomed by Biden’s decision to run.


But the voters saw something different. They saw a candidate with no core message, no policy clarity, and no real ability to connect. They saw a VP who spent four years dodging hard questions, botching key assignments, and leaning on identity politics when substance was required.

Now she wants to write the postscript as if she was a Cassandra figure, silenced by loyalty, undone by someone else’s pride. But the numbers don’t lie. Her campaign didn’t lose because Joe Biden ran. It lost because Kamala Harris ran—and ran out of road almost immediately.
