Former Vice President of the United States, Kamala Harris, released her book this past Tuesday titled “107 Days”, which recounts and reflects upon her presidential campaign, the shortest run in modern history. The book contains her notes, journal entries, and thoughts she had during those days, and more recent thoughts on current President Donald Trump’s actions since inauguration.
“With candor and reflection, I’ve written a behind-the-scenes of that journey,” Harris said in her announcement video. “Sometimes, the fight takes a while. But I remain full of hope. I remain clear-eyed.”
“107 Days” goes into Harris’ thoughts on Biden’s capacity to campaign versus his ability to govern; her regrets – times when she wished she had spoken up – and the fact that her personal choice for running mate would have been previous Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg.
MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow, described Harris as the “patron saint of ‘I told you so.’” When then-presidential candidate Trump promised to lower prices on day one, Harris promised that he wouldn’t be capable of keeping it. Nine months into Trump’s second presidency – inflation, unemployment, and prices have risen.
Harris’ new book is slated to fly off shelves as people look for answers to the questions we’ve had since 2024. Secure a copy for yourself from local bookstores such as Page Turner in Kent or Half Priced Books.
