The Democratic Party’s post-election soul-searching has taken a predictable turn. Ten months after their crushing defeat, prominent liberals continue grasping for explanations that avoid the uncomfortable truth about their failures. Now, one former candidate’s tell-all memoir has accidentally showed exactly why Americans rejected their vision for the country.

What emerges from these pages isn’t the thoughtful reflection voters might expect from a former vice president. Instead, it’s a perfect example of blaming others, finger-pointing, and the very attitudes that drove millions of Americans to choose different leadership. (And honestly? It’s almost painful to read.)

Kamala Harris’s new memoir “107 Days” hit shelves this week, promising an inside look at her failed presidential campaign. But rather than offering accountability or lessons learned, the book delivers something far more revealing: a 300-page exercise in blaming everyone except herself for the Democratic Party’s historic collapse.

The most explosive revelation comes in Harris’s bitter criticism of Joe Biden’s decision to stay in the race. “It’s Joe and Jill’s decision. We all said that, like a mantra, as if we’d all been hypnotized,” she writes. Then comes the knife: “Was it grace, or was it recklessness? In retrospect, I think it was recklessness. The stakes were simply too high.”

Wait, what? This from the woman who stood by Biden for years, insisting he was sharp as ever while Americans could see the obvious decline with their own eyes. Now she wants credit for knowing better all along? Please.

When Leadership Means Never Taking Responsibility

Perhaps most telling is Harris’s excuse for the border crisis that defined much of her vice presidency. She complains she “shouldered the blame for the porous border, an issue that had proved intractable for Democratic and Republican administrations alike.” The border was simply impossible to secure, she insists. No one gave her “something she can win with.”

From ‘Daily Caller’:

Harris spins securing the border as an utter impossibility. “No one around the president advocated, Give her something she can win with.” What would that be? Third grade math? Slurring her words during interviews? Harris claims she was “castigated for, apparently, delivering [a speech] too well.” The Biden White House’s “thinking was zero-sum: If she’s shining, he’s dimmed. None of them grasped that if I did well, he did well.”

The book also exposes the dysfunction behind closed doors. After bombing an interview with YouTube’s Doctor Mike—who simply asked if she was getting enough sleep—Harris berated her staff with “What the fuck was that?” When an aide tried to explain, she cut him off: “That was a rhetorical question.”

Here’s the kicker: Her own team mocked her for days afterward. They used “that was a rhetorical question” as a running joke whenever anyone asked anything. This is the “discipline” she claimed to have on the campaign trail when critics called her scripted and fake.

Identity Politics Over Competence

Even more revealing is Harris’s explanation for not choosing Pete Buttigieg as her running mate. She claims America was too “old-fashioned” to accept him because of his sexual orientation. “We were already asking a lot of America: to accept a woman, a black woman, a black woman married to a Jewish man,” she writes.

Can you believe this? She actually thinks her loss was about demographics. Not her inability to explain clear plans. Not her failure to connect with regular Americans. Nope—we’re all just too backwards to appreciate her brilliance.

The Guardian’s review of the memoir delivers a devastating verdict. The book provides “no closure or hope” and “fails to chart any kind of path forward.” Even liberal reviewers recognize what Harris cannot—that this exercise in blame-shifting only pushes people away further.

Throughout the book, Harris insists she didn’t have “enough time” to win. She claims a “series of mistakes, committed over years, mostly by other people” doomed her campaign. The Biden White House supposedly undermined her. The media was unfair. Americans were too backwards. Everyone failed except Kamala Harris.

You know what? This memoir accidentally becomes the perfect autopsy of why Democrats lost. Not through honest self-reflection, but through its stunning display of the very attitudes that repelled voters. They can’t accept responsibility. They look down on traditional values. And they genuinely believe Americans rejected them for any reason other than their failed policies and leadership.

While Harris wallows in excuses and her party tears itself apart with recriminations, President Trump is busy securing the border and strengthening the economy. He’s proving that what Democrats called impossible simply required competent leadership. Americans didn’t need 107 days to figure that out—we already knew exactly what we were choosing last November.

Key Takeaways

• Harris blames Biden, staff, and voters—everyone but herself for losing
• She admits the border crisis was “impossible” while Trump proves otherwise
• Her own staff mocked her behind closed doors for days
• Democrats still can’t accept their policies and attitudes drove Americans away
