Kamala Harris, fading from the spotlight since her time as Vice President, is making waves with the upcoming release of her memoir, “107 Days.” The title alone is a pointed nod to her brief surge in popularity as Biden’s running mate—a period that evaporated almost as quickly as it arrived. Harris’s leaked excerpt in The Atlantic reveals a stinging critique of Joe Biden and the decisions that led him to pursue a controversial re-election campaign. Far from the unity and grace she once preached, Harris now paints Biden as reckless and self-serving, laying the groundwork to distance herself from an administration marked by failure and disappointment.
Conservatives won’t be surprised by Harris’s pivot. When the going gets tough, Democrats are quick to rewrite their own history, often abandoning former allies when it suits their ambitions. Harris supported Biden’s agenda at every turn—from the border crisis to inflation and foreign policy blunders—only now to claim that his leadership was fundamentally flawed. It’s a transparent attempt to rehabilitate her image while ignoring the damage she helped inflict, and it reeks of political opportunism. Americans remember how eagerly Harris championed Biden’s policies; her sudden change of heart is the oldest trick in the politician’s handbook.
The choice of “107 Days” as a title betrays some wishful thinking. Harris wants readers to believe she could have reversed her sinking approval had she only been given more time in the limelight. Yet the truth is clear: the longer she was exposed to public scrutiny, the faster her poll numbers fell. Democrats learned that the more Harris spoke, the less America listened—and as election cycles shifted, she was quietly pushed away from major televised events, a strategy that made her virtually invisible while the Biden administration staggered from one blunder to the next.
Meanwhile, Harris’s criticisms of Biden serve a dual purpose: they not only attempt to absolve her of responsibility for policies she helped shape, but also underscore the waning influence of the Biden presidency. In the shadow of popular former leaders like Clinton and Obama, Biden is increasingly regarded as a relic of the past—a liability rather than an asset for the Left. Harris’s willingness to publicly challenge him is less an act of principle and more a calculated move to salvage her own future in a party desperate for new faces.
Washington is as cutthroat as ever, where political alliances are rarely more than fleeting arrangements. Harris’s latest maneuver is a reminder that, in the end, loyalty comes second to ambition for progressive politicians. As Harris tries to rebrand herself and possibly stage a comeback, voters should be mindful of the ease with which Democrats jettison their own when public opinion turns. Whether “107 Days” reinvigorates Harris’s prospects or marks the final chapter of her political career remains to be seen, but the spectacle already proves that in today’s Democrat Party, self-preservation trumps substance every time.
