The former VP is in trouble. It may be best for her to retire completely.
And Kamala Harris received bad news that could sink her political career.
Democrats are already turning their backs on Kamala Harris as a potential 2028 presidential contender, with even top party insiders refusing to offer anything more than lukewarm shrugs or outright silence.
A recent survey of Democratic politicians by NOTUS revealed a striking lack of enthusiasm for the former vice president mounting another White House bid.
When asked if they would support her, many high-profile figures dodged the question entirely or dismissed it as premature.
California Senator Adam Schiff offered a non-answer: “That’s her decision.”
Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren also provided a non-answer, stating, “I’m so focused on 2026, I’m just not there. I don’t have any thoughts about 2028.”
Other Democrats were more blunt about the wide-open field ahead. Louisiana Representative Troy Carter made it clear he was keeping his options open:
“I can’t support anybody right now. It’s way too early. We’ve got to see what the field offers.”
Behind closed doors, the doubts run even deeper. An anonymous congressional Democrat said to NOTUS that they wished the former VP had aimed for a governor’s race instead of eyeing the presidency again.
The lawmaker added, “I don’t think I’m alone in this view, that I would have real concerns about her being the nominee.”
One Democrat voiced a harsher assessment, questioning whether Harris’ name would actually help the party. “Is that a good thing for the party and the country (if she’s) the nominee? No.”
But not every Democrat is ready to write her off. Texas Representative Sylvia Garcia offered one of the few full-throated defenses, declaring:
“She deserves a shot, especially when you see who is considering it — on both sides of the aisles. She is better than all the rest.”
Mississippi Representative Bennie Thompson took a more neutral stance, reminding everyone that the process is open to all:
“In America, anyone can run. The real question is, can they win?”
Whether Harris jumps in or not, the lack of enthusiasm from her own ranks suggests her path to the nomination would be rocky at best.
The American people have already seen the act once. They aren’t likely to forget how it ended.
The real question now is whether Democrats will learn from that rejection or double down on the same failed formula.
