After returning from a vacation, Vice President Kamala Harris reflected on her 2024 presidential campaign loss, concluding that better timing could have altered the result. In the new book "Fight: Inside the Wildest Battle for the White House," Harris supposedly believed she could have won if the election had been later or if she had entered the race earlier. However, many around her viewed this as unrealistic, suggesting that the campaign's issues lay more in substance than in timing, emphasizing the need for more concrete ideas over simply more time.
"She could have won, she told friends, if only the election was later in the calendar - or she got in earlier."
"If Election Day was October first, we might have actually somehow pulled it off. Shorter was actually better, not longer."
"I don't think we needed more time. We needed more sand. We needed more substance. And she did not have more substance."
"Former President Biden's unpopularity surely weighed on Harris' truncated 107-day candidacy."
