Former Vice President Kamala Harris laid out her political vision in Seoul on Wednesday — a vision that, rather than being a scathing assault on the Trump administration, was somewhat aligned with the MAGA playbook.
Ms. Harris, the 2024 Democratic presidential nominee, was in South Korea at the invitation of the Asan Institute, a prominent Seoul think tank, to deliver its annual memorial lecture.
The lecture cut a broad swath, linking geopolitics and U.S. alliances to the race for primacy in global tech and the import of secure supply chains.
Given the timing — less than three weeks ahead of the midterms — and the support Ms. Harris has for another presidential bid, Asan got a hot speaker.
She currently leads a crowded field of potential candidates for her party’s 2028 nomination. An Oct. 11 Focaldata/Financial Times survey found 30% of Democrats back her — double the numbers of runner-up Gavin Newsom, governor of California, with 15%.
Among Republicans, Vice President J.D. Vance leads Secretary of State Marco Rubio, 38% to 24%.
Ms. Harris declined to be drawn into any talk of White House plans.
“2028, from my perspective, does not matter if we don’t win 2026,” she said, predicting that next month, Democrats would win the House and that the party has “a very good shot at winning the Senate as well.”
To some surprise among those on hand for Wednesday’s address, Ms. Harris expressed some openness to positions widely branded as MAGA, indicating U.S. politics may not be as polarized as many fear.

Then why trade in JD for heels up harris who’ll change her dimwit donkey’s laugh mind should the impossible occur, i.e. she gets the presidency? Once she gets in, all promises go right out the window. Instead of a male predator like the bubbster clintoon, the people will have a female predator. Do you really want to trust a demoncRAT after demoncRATS occupied the White House for 12 years?
I’m curious what she paid them for the invite and the platform.
She’s still got lots of campaign money, I’m sure.
What does Harris think about Walz from Minnisomalia ass a running mate again?
Yep...she’s a demcommie...they LIE.
She’s running to be Korean President?
what’s she doing in Seoul. She heard they make the best Seoul food in the world.
Stay there evil woman and don’t come back.
I know Koreans are heavy drinkers. Did she drink all the alcohol in California?
They probably ran out of Soju.
Why would they want to hear anything that bimbo has to say?
A left wing President is in the Blue House. Asan is probably trying to curry favor by inviting Kamala.
They promised her all the 순대 she could eat.
Kamala needs to be wearing a warning label:
“Your IQ drops a point for every minute you listen to this speech.”
