You learn a lot about people when they lose. It’s the ultimate character test, for individuals and for entire political movements. Some take their lumps, learn a lesson, and try to come back stronger with a sense of humility. They look in the mirror and ask themselves what they did wrong.
Others, however, choose a different path. When a political machine is built not on bedrock values but on the shifting sands of personality and grievance, its collapse is never quiet. It is followed by a cacophony of blame and a desperate scramble to rewrite history. The knives come out, not for their opponents, but for each other.
We are now seeing this play out in spectacular fashion. Pennsylvania’s Democrat Governor, Josh Shapiro, was recently informed by a reporter from The Atlantic of what his party’s failed 2024 presidential nominee, Kamala Harris, wrote about him in her new memoir. His reaction was pure, uncut political honesty.
From ‘The Daily Wire’:
“That’s complete and utter bullsh*t,” Shapiro said. “I can tell you that her accounts are just blatant lies.” Asked if he felt betrayed by Harris, Shapiro continued to go off: “I mean, she’s trying to sell books and cover her *ss,” he said. “I shouldn’t say ‘cover her *ss.’ I think that’s not appropriate … She’s trying to sell books. Period.”
A Party in Chaos
And get this—the person torching her credibility isn’t a Republican or a conservative host. It’s one of their own, a sitting Democrat governor, who has clearly had enough of the charade. The mask has slipped, revealing the bitter reality of a party in a full-blown meltdown. This is what happens when a coalition held together by little more than a shared disdain for President Trump is forced to look inward. It implodes.
Harris claims in her book that Shapiro was overbearing in his interview to be her running mate, suggesting he wanted to be a “co-president.” It’s a laughably transparent attempt to paint herself as the strong leader who sniffed out an overeager subordinate. Please. The story reads like a desperate PR stunt to explain away her campaign’s epic implosion.
A Legacy of Lies
This feud is far more than just beltway gossip; it is a symptom of the rot that has consumed the Democratic Party. For years, we’ve pointed out that the modern Left’s relationship with the truth is situational at best. Now, their own leaders are admitting it. Shapiro’s accusation that Harris is trying to “cover her *ss” isn’t just a personal insult; it’s an indictment of a political culture that has chosen narrative over reality time and time again.
Remember, Harris ultimately passed over Shapiro for Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, a running mate who famously cratered in his debate against Vice President JD Vance. Some speculated at the time that Shapiro’s Jewish faith was a liability with the party’s increasingly powerful and openly anti-Israel progressive wing. Harris made a bad call, her campaign flopped, and now she’s inventing fiction to justify it.
A Leadership Vacuum
The most telling part of this entire debacle may be what Shapiro later said about his party’s broader failures. He correctly diagnosed that Democrats lost ground because they failed “to show up and to treat people with a level of respect that they deserve.” While Democrats are busy knifing each other in the pages of self-serving memoirs, real Americans with real problems are being completely ignored.
This internal chaos stands in stark contrast to an America under renewed leadership. While Harris is focused on settling petty scores to sell a few books, President Trump is brokering historic peace deals in the Middle East and restoring American strength. The difference could not be clearer. One side is governing, the other is grieving.
So, no, this isn’t just D.C. drama. It’s a five-alarm fire in the Democratic Party, a warning that their entire house is burning down from the inside. This is what happens when a movement loses its moral compass and abandons faith, family, and freedom. It eventually devours itself.
Key Takeaways

- Leftist leaders often resort to rewriting history and blaming others rather than accepting personal responsibility.
- Principled leadership focuses on national results, not settling petty political scores to sell books.
