Former U.S. Vice President Kamala harris hinted she may run for president in 2028.
In a BBC interview, she stated, “I am not done,” reflecting on her political ambitions.
Harris emphasized a life dedicated to public service, saying, “If I listened to polls, I would not have run for my first office or my second.”
When asked if the U.S. might see a woman president soon, she said her grandnieces would likely witness it and smiled when asked if it could be her: “Possibly.”
A Painful Defeat, But Not the End
Harris recently promoted her book 107 Days, detailing her 2024 presidential campaign.
Her campaign lasted just over three months after President Joe Biden withdrew due to health concerns.
She described her election loss to donald trump as “surprising and traumatizing”, recalling her reaction: “My God, my God, what will happen to our country?”
Despite a low public profile since the election, the book and interview signal her political reemergence.
Harris said, “There are many ways to serve,” noting she has not yet decided her next steps beyond current activities.
Criticism of trump and Allies
Harris accused trump of using federal agencies to silence dissent and critics, citing attacks on political satirists and media organizations.
She condemned U.S. business leaders for aligning with trump for personal gain, such as mergers or avoiding investigations.
Harris claimed her warnings about Trump’s authoritarian tendencies were validated, pointing to his alleged weaponization of the Department of Justice.
White house Response
The white house dismissed Harris’s comments through spokeswoman Abigail Jackson, calling her claims “absurd lies” and suggesting she should have accepted her 2024 defeat.
Trump and allies continue to hint at a 2028 campaign, despite the two-term constitutional limit.
Looking Ahead
Harris’s future candidacy depends on the Democratic Party's support and voter readiness.
She remains confident that a woman will lead the U.S., leaving open the possibility that it could be her in a future election cycle.
