Kamala Harris has said that she currently has no desire to re-enter “the system” of American politics because it is “broken”.

On Thursday night the Democratic party’s defeated presidential nominee, who replaced Joe Biden late in the 2024 campaign after he dropped his re-election bid, gave her first interview since losing the election to Donald Trump, talking to Stephen Colbert on The Late Show.

After she announced she will not run for the governorship of California just a day earlier, Harris told the TV show that it was about something more “basic” than whether she wanted to run for something else instead – with the subtext being whether she will attempt a White House run again in 2028.

I always wondered what the opposition politicians in Russia get out of it, given they can’t win and will be locked up or thrown out of a window if they actually speak out about anything. Guess Kamala does too.

She was never capable of doing anything in politics in the first place. Her 2020 campaign for president was a sad joke, and Biden brought her on as VP because of her demographics, not her brain.
