The Democrats Are Living a ‘Nightmare,’ and Kamala Harris Is About to Make It Worse
California Democrat apparatchiks are approaching the looming prospect of a Kamala Harris gubernatorial run with all the enthusiasm of a CNN reporter at a Trump rally. No one is even pretending anymore that Harris is the strong, heroic, and resolute figure depicted on the cover of Time Magazine in Aug. 2024, much less that she is the future of the Democratic Party, as New York magazine claimed around the same time. She led the Democrats to defeat, and now, she tries to resurrect her political career with a run for California governor, “no one,” says a Democrat fundraiser, “is incredibly pumped.” No kidding, really?
Politico reported Friday that Harris is “ramping up her outreach to longtime supporters as she weighs a run for California governor. But many Democratic donors aren’t enthusiastic, still hobbled by the hangover of her presidential loss.” And so as the former It Girl struggles to regain the limelight, frantically conducting “thank you visits, catch-up calls and listening sessions, touching base with her most trusted supporters as she weighs her options,” she is encountering a decided lack of enthusiasm for more word salad and the usual mix of far-left identity politics, statism, and resentment that she has to offer.
