Harris is passing out the blame. She’s still bitter at everyone and everything for her election defeat.
And Kamala Harris just dropped a major truth bomb that revealed why she lost the 2024 election.
Kamala Harris appeared all smiles with her “beloved” husband, Doug Emhoff, in the immediate wake of her defeat in the 2024 presidential election. But behind closed doors, sources suggest the couple is grappling with significant tensions as Harris shifts focus to her next political move.
Now that President Donald Trump has been sworn into office, Harris reportedly feels the sting of defeat and is turning her frustration inward. According to DailyMail.com, Emhoff, who’s a “dead weight,” has become a target for Harris.
As she contemplates her political future, Harris is forced to evaluate whether her husband is a help or a hindrance to her career.
“There’s plenty of blame to go around as far as Kamala is concerned, and Doug has his share,” a source told DailyMail.com. “Doug did Kamala no favors during the election—frankly, he looked like a hypocritical a** after the bombshells that he had got his child’s nanny pregnant while married to his first wife and assaulted his ex-girlfriend on the heels of his ‘I am woman’ crusade.”
While the couple looked to be fine during public appearances—such as President Jimmy Carter’s recent funeral and Trump’s inauguration—those close to them suggest cracks are beginning to show.
Adding to the strain, Emhoff has reportedly accepted a position with a New York-based law firm, which would require splitting their time between Los Angeles and New York.
At Trump’s inauguration, the couple’s expressions revealed underlying tension. They both looked very displeased as Trump gave his inaugural address.
Following the ceremony, the couple briefly exchanged pleasantries with Trump before departing for California. However, behind the scenes, Harris is said to be preparing for a complete image overhaul, potentially at Emhoff’s expense, to revive her political career.
One possible strategy includes writing a book, which could significantly bolster her finances. Yet, her campaign was plagued by allegations surrounding Emhoff that she dismissed during the race’s final stretch.
n 2020, Emhoff left his prominent legal career to support Harris’ ambitions, embracing the role of “wife guy.” But their relationship has faced mounting challenges, reports DailyMail.com.
“I see the signs that all is not hunky dory in the Harris household,” said a source according to DailyMail.com, adding, “It’s not like she hasn’t had men help further her political career before… But what does Doug do for her now?”
As Harris navigates her next steps, she may bypass a gubernatorial race—viewed as a “thankless, no-win job”—in favor of another shot at the presidency.
Her former communications chief, Ashley Etienne, shared Harris’ resolve: “You know me well enough to know that I’m not going to go away quietly.”
Allegations from Emhoff’s past continue to loom over the couple. Reports from DailyMail.com surfaced of an affair with Najen Naylor, his daughter’s nanny, which allegedly ended in a miscarriage. Emhoff reportedly paid Naylor $80,000 for a non-disclosure agreement.
Additional controversy emerged in October when a former girlfriend accused Emhoff of slapping her during an event in France. While Emhoff admitted to the extramarital affair, he denied any allegations of physical abuse through a spokesperson.
Former colleagues at Emhoff’s previous law firm also alleged a culture of misogyny, including inappropriate behavior toward female associates.
Harris has remained silent on these controversies, focusing on her future as she rebuilds her image. For now, both her political aspirations and personal life appear to hang in the balance as she contemplates her next move.
