'Recklessness': Kamala Harris turns on Joe Biden in new book
ABC News ^ | 9/10/2025 | Jon Haworth

Posted on 09/10/2025 10:05:02 AM PDT by simpson96

Former Vice President Kamala Harris says that Democrats made a mistake and it was "recklessness" to allow President Joe Biden to make the decision alone on running for reelection, saying the choice should not have been "left to an individual’s ego.”

In an excerpt from her forthcoming book, "107 Days," published in The Atlantic Wednesday morning, Harris, in a remarkable turnaround, said "as loyal as I am to President Biden, I am more loyal to my country," and lamented her time in Biden’s administration, saying "getting anything positive said about my work or any defense against untrue attacks was almost impossible."

Harris said the president’s staff fueled negative stories about her performance as vice president and often refused to defend her against attacks against Republicans, including the narrative that she had a "chaotic" office and unusually high staff turnover during her first year.

"I was the first vice president to have a dedicated press pool tracking my every public move," Harris said. "Before me, vice presidents had what’s called a ‘supplemental pool," as the first lady does, covering important events. Because of this constant attention, things that had never been especially newsworthy about the vice president were suddenly reported and scrutinized."

At another point in the excerpt, Harris defended Biden, dismissing those who say he was incapable of serving as president.

ABC News has reached out to the Biden camp for comment.

Some Democrats could have persuaded the DNC to run open primaries.

At least for once we can be thankful for Democratic stupidity and arrogance.

She didn’t write a word of the book.

Too stupid.

You just knew it was coming

I would guess these two appointed puppets never even spoke to each other, outside of the times they had to say hello when they were forced to campaign together.

Theirs no honor among criminals and socialists.

Yup, folks, I can’t handle a dozen or so people, but you can rely on me to manage about 3 million members of the federal workforce, cross my fingers, and hope that Joe croaks on his ice cream.

MO of female officials who generally are unaccountable, irrational, and untruthful and will turn coat at the drop of the hat if they perceive the necessity or are backed into a corner.

Males sometimes, but females MANY times.

Radar drones don’t have to come near the target.

They can look for a clearing they could duck into and only then transmit. If they are targeted, they can use the forest or woods for protection.

Their effective range would be their airborne range plus the range of their radar.

Well of course. If she said otherwise, it would implicate her for not saying something at the time.

Democrat memoirs are a form of money laundering.

Are you suggesting Kamala should have taken out Zombie Joe with a drone?

They allege Kamala Harris has written 5 books.
Actually she has never even read 5 books.

Note: Her book Smart on Crime came out in 2009.

In Kamala’s book “107 Days”, I wonder if there is any mention of Joe’s improvement in his ability to not tip over on a bycicle?

“the narrative that she had a “chaotic” office and unusually high staff turnover during her first year”

What are the numbers?

Nobody cared about the “narrative”.
