You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

Kamala Harris will not run for California governor in 2026 sparking speculation she's planning another presidential bid

Daily Mail

30 July 2025



Former Vice President Kamala Harris announced Wednesday she would not run for governor of California to replace outgoing Gov. Gavin Newsom.

'In recent months, I have given serious thought to asking the people of California for the privilege to serve as their governor,' she wrote in a statement. 'I love this state, its people, and its promise. It is my home. But after deep reflection, I've decided that I will not run for governor in this election.'

Harris' long-awaited decision takes place after several California Democrats announced their campaigns, not waiting for the former vice president to rule out a possible run.

Former Orange County Rep. Katie Porter, ex-Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa and former U.S. Health Secretary Xavier Becerra announced their intent to run for governor despite Harris' indecision.

Many national Democrats privately thought that Harris should run for the state position after losing the 2024 presidential race to President Donald Trump.
Her decision to opt out of the state race sparks speculation that she may mount another presidential campaign in 2028.

But Harris' statement indicated she would not pursue elected office 'for now.'

'For now, my leadership — and public service — will not be in elected office,' she wrote. 'I look forward to getting back out and listening to the American people, helping elect Democrats across the nation who will fight fearlessly, and sharing more details in the months ahead about my own plans.'

Funny/Delusional
Does Kamala understand that if she runs for President she will have to actually 'primary' and she will actually have to get votes? Maybe she thinks it will just be handed to her with no effort like last time.

If she really thinks she can be the POTUS following Trump, then her alcoholism is getting worse, not better. She would be lucky to get some small fraction of 1% of the vote.

After running through a billion dollars like Hefner through virgins, and her campaign still owing millions, who is going to back her? I think maybe that’s the real reason for her announcment.

She has larger aspirations.

But, in reality, she's heading to her new club ....

The only reason that she was the nominee in 2024 because it became clear that Biden had one marble rolling around in his head and was incapable of doing the job any further so she was able to step right in and run for president

It was her campaign in the Democrat primary that was one of the first to fizzle out. If Democrats couldn’t vote for her in the primary, why would they have thought that the general public at large would’ve voted for her?

I mentioned this to an acquaintance who is very much to the left who claimed that Harris lost because of her gender and race.


I asked that individual then why did you guys reject her in the primary? Never did get an answer.

That has to be about the least amount of turd salad she's ever served up. It's actually coherent and to the point.

After much consideration, I would like to announce that I am ALSO not running for Governor of California.

I mean, I probably had at least as much chance of winning as she did, and I can put together a coherent sentence on occasion.

Me, too. And it's not just because I haven't lived in California in 60 years. It's because it is my firm desire to be unburdened by what has been, and embrace the reality of living, and light, and time, and therefore will direct my leadership and public service to other endeavors in which I might be able to unburden others from what has been, and so forth.

That's a shame, because I definitely would have voted for you. I'm not a citizen of California, but then that's probably also true of a sizable portion of their electorate.  :shrug:

The article said she announced it not that she had a press conference and announced it? So I am thinking some aide wrote that for her, Harris was probably too sloshed to write anything.

Maybe that's the secret. Get her drunk, then have her read something and then STHU.

Kamala Harris heads to canceled Colbert as she eyes political reboot and 2028 run for president

Daily Mail
By CHARLIE SPIERING
31 July 2025



CBS announced Thursday that former Vice President Kamala Harris would appear with Late Show host Stephen Colbert, just two weeks after the network announced that the show would be canceled.

Harris' appearance with Colbert marks her first post-election interview since she lost the 2024 race to Donald Trump.

The former vice president announced Thursday she would publish a memoir of the presidential race on September 23, 2025, just a day after she revealed she would not run for governor of California.

Harris' interview appears to be another attempt to refurbish her image after her historically short and failed 2024 presidential campaign as well as jumpstart media buzz about her forthcoming memoir titled '107 Days.'

The decision to appear on the Colbert takes additional political significance as critics of the merger between Skydance and CBS suggested that the decision to cancel Colbert's program was to placate the president, who has taken issue with Colbert's comedy.

Colbert has hosted Harris on his show seven times, beginning in 2018 when she was a senator exploring a run for president.

Harris famously performed the 'Wakanda Forever' salute from the movie Black Panter Marvel movie, for the show, in a parody campaign ad running for a senator of the fictional land of Wakanda.

Colbert also chugged a beer with Harris on the show in October 2024, as he spoke about the importance of selling the image of being a relatable candidate.

IIRC it was a Miller High Life.  The Champagne of Bottled beers.
Growing up the low class bad tasting High Life was market to blacks.  Later when Malt Beers hit the market, (brews like Colt 45, Schlitz Malt) marketing shifted towards African-Americans after middle-class white people rejected the lower-quality beverage.

A low quality berage for a low quality candidate.  Fitting
