Kamala Harris says she is not done with politics and strongly suggested that she is considering another bid for president in a new interview.

In an interview scheduled to air on the BBC on Sunday morning, Harris says that she would “possibly” be the next president, making the clearest suggestion to date that she will make another run for the White House in 2028 despite lagging far behind in the polls.

Harris insisted that she had not yet made a decision, but that she was confident that there will eventually be a woman in the White House and her political career is not over.

Oh no... She's the reason we are stuck with Old Orange Julius Caesar right now.

Anyone who's in denial of this should look up her 2020 presidential campaign. It wasn't the 107 days she had to campaign in 2024. You can't just answer every question by saying you're from a middle class family.

Biden Suggests He Would Only Serve One Term if Elected President

Advisers close to the candidate say he won’t run for reelection in 2024 if elected in 2020.

And then he changed his mind.

If that hadn't happened and they instead had a normal convention, we might be in a much different situation now.

Yup, I remember that! I got a lot of crap for getting angry with Biden and the media before the 2024 election, since he was the candidate that was NotTrump™, but now I see more and more people realizing what happened. Better late than never, I guess.

Hopefully the Democrats will learn from this.

(They won’t. They serve their aipac and corporate donors above all even if it means losing.)
