Outgoing Vice President Kamala Harris’s fans are starting to lay the groundwork for a comeback after her historic defeat.
Democrats were handed their worst defeat in decades last month, losing the popular vote and every swing state to President-elect Donald Trump. Despite this, Democrats have largely spared Harris of blame, with allies already talking about how she could come back and clear the field to run again in 2028.
Among these allies is President Joe Biden, who heaped lavish praise on Harris over the weekend.
“I knew what I was doing when I asked her to be my vice president,” he said at the Democratic National Committee’s holiday reception in Washington, D.C. “She always served this country with purpose and integrity, and she always will. And you’re not going anywhere, kid — because we’re not going to let you go.”
The vice president hasn’t directly signaled what her next move will be, but allies and advisers told the Washington Post that her first move is likely to start an independent political group to maintain her email list, fundraise for other Democrats, and go on a speaking tour.
