It appears former Vice President Kamala Harris may be positioning herself for another presidential campaign in 2028.
While she has previously avoided confirming any plans, Harris offered several subtle hints about a potential run during a new interview with the BBC:
Kamala Harris is asked when we will see a woman President:
KAMALA: “In their lifetime for sure.”
BBC: “Could it be you?”
KAMALA: “Possibly”
BBC: “You say in your book 'I'm not done'.”
KAMALA: “That is correct. I'm not done.”

“I am not done,” the former vice president told the BBC in her strongest comments so far on her political plans. “I have lived my entire career as a life of service and it’s in my bones,” she told the British outlet.
The former California senator and state attorney general also maintained her grand-nieces would see the nation elect its first female president “in their lifetime, for sure.”
Pressed on whether it would be her, Harris responded: “possibly.”
Harris might technically be “ahead” in a few meaningless polls, but the betting markets have her losing to Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. Yes, that Rock. And honestly, that feels about right.
It’s telling that a British interviewer was more straightforward with Harris than most of the American press corps ever dares to be. That said, Harris dismissed polling data indicating she’d be making a huge mistake if she tried to run again:
“If I listened to polls I would have not run for my first office, or my second office — and I certainly wouldn’t be sitting here,” she told the BBC.
Let’s face it — reality isn’t on Kamala Harris’s side. Voters rejected her soundly in 2020 before she could even make it to Super Tuesday. In 2024, she didn’t win the nomination — she was installed after Joe Biden bowed out under pressure. And what happened next? She got absolutely steamrolled by President Donald Trump, who not only reclaimed the swing states but even took the popular vote. Harris exposed herself as completely hollow — unable to answer basic questions, let alone lead a nation.
Since then, she’s somehow managed to dig herself an even deeper hole. Her new book takes aim at fellow Democrats, trashing members of her own party in a desperate attempt to stay relevant. It’s not working. Even her home state of California — the bluest of blue — doesn’t want anything to do with her or Gavin Newsom. When your own backyard rejects you, it’s probably time to stop pretending there’s a Harris 2028 movement.
Kamala Harris is finished — politically cooked. She’s not going to be gifted the Democratic nomination this time around like she was in 2024 when party insiders cleared the field for her. The Democratic establishment won’t be able to drag her across the finish line again, and even if she tries, she’s unlikely to make it past slippery California Governor Gavin Newsom, who’s been quietly positioning himself for years.
And if, by some miracle, she did make it to a general election? Forget it. A Republican like Vice President J.D. Vance would dismantle her in a debate just like he did with Tim Walz — only faster and more decisively. Harris’s record, her mannerisms, her incoherent answers — all of it would collapse under even mild scrutiny. The truth is, almost any competent Republican candidate could make her look amateurish.
There’s no path forward for Kamala Harris. The media might still pretend she’s a contender, but voters have already moved on. The Democrats know it, and deep down, so does she. When even the media is admitting that Kamala Harris’s odds are worse than The Rock’s, you know the delusion is starting to crack.
