Kamala Harris may have lost big in 2024 — but now she’s looking to cash in.
The former vice president, who led one of the shortest and least effective presidential campaigns in modern history, just announced a new book deal titled “107 Days.” In typical Washington elite fashion, Harris is now monetizing her failed bid for the White House with a glossy memoir set to release on September 23.
Kamala Harris’ book is already being hyped as a “behind-the-scenes” look at her 2024 campaign — the one that ended in historic defeat to President Donald Trump.
From Campaign Trail to Cash Grab
In a video posted Thursday, Harris tried to spin her crushing loss as a noble experience worth documenting — and selling.
“I believe there’s value in sharing what I saw, what I learned,” said Harris, who is now 60 and unemployed. “I remain full of hope.”
The announcement came just one day after she backed out of running for governor of California — leaving many to wonder whether this book is just the latest attempt to stay relevant (and profitable) in the political spotlight.
She added, “I will never stop working to make our country reflect the very best of its ideals.” But for many Americans, especially conservatives, her “ideals” were clearly rejected at the ballot box.
Kamala’s 2024 Collapse — and the Media’s Role
Harris became the Democrats’ last-minute nominee after Joe Biden abruptly dropped out in July 2024 — only 107 days before the election. Despite a flurry of glowing headlines and flattering news coverage, her campaign fell apart fast.
Polls briefly showed her leading President Trump. But reality caught up quickly.
Harris became the first Democrat in 20 years to lose the popular vote — a fact she carefully avoids in her public statements.
Will the Book Deal Pay Off?
While it’s unclear how much Simon & Schuster paid Harris for “107 Days,” these types of deals often come with six- or even seven-figure advances. And for someone with no elected office, no job, and dwindling political capital — it’s no surprise she’s turning to publishing to stay afloat.
Her first book, “The Truths We Hold,” published back in 2019, received only lukewarm reviews but was heavily promoted by left-leaning outlets.
No Governor Run, No Presidential Plans — For Now
Rumors had swirled that Harris might try again in 2028 or make a bid for California governor. But this week, she shut those down — at least temporarily.
“I care deeply about this state,” she said. “But after giving it a lot of thought, I’ve chosen not to pursue a run for governor.”
Instead, Harris says she’ll focus on “listening to the American people” and “helping elect Democrats across the nation.”
Translation? She’s laying low, rebuilding her image, and likely waiting for another shot at national relevance.
The Takeaway: Elites Fail Up, While Americans Pay the Price
Kamala Harris may have lost the confidence of the American people — but she’s winning where it counts in elite political circles: book deals, media attention, and big-money speaking gigs.
For millions of hardworking Americans, her story is all too familiar: a powerful Democrat fails in leadership but walks away richer.
Meanwhile, everyday citizens continue to face the real consequences of liberal policies — from rising costs to border chaos.
