Kamala Harris ran a historically terrible campaign after being crowned as the nominee by Democrat leadership behind closed doors after Biden’s cognitive nosedive, only to lose every single swing state and have the shame of being the only Democrat to lose the popular vote in 20 years.

2028 ELECTIONS DEMOCRAT PARTY JD VANCE KAMALA HARRIS POLLING

Now, they want to see her run it back, and polling indicates that JD Vance will be her opponent. Vance has captured the hearts of many in the Republican camps after his quick ascendency from junior senator to the vice presidency, and there have been more than a few rumblings indicating that Secretary of State Marco Rubio would be his running mate.

Harris, on the other hand, blew $40 million on her 2020 presidential bid where she accused Joe Biden of supporting racist policies in the most canned political moment in living memory, just to fail upward after Biden named her as his running mate. She’d follow that trend into 2024.

If she finally makes it through a primary election in 2028, it will be a gift to Republicans.
