Kamala Harris is thinking about running for California governor. She says she’ll decide by the end of summer. But not everyone is excited. Bill Maher, a liberal TV host, joked that she should “run far, far away” instead. His audience went silent when he compared her to Richard Nixon, who lost big before becoming president. Even some Democrats aren’t sure she’s the right choice.
A recent poll shows Harris leading by a huge margin. But critics say that’s just name recognition, not real support. She lost badly to President Trump last year, and many blame her for weak campaigning. California Democrats are stuck waiting on her decision. Other candidates can’t raise money or get endorsements while she hesitates.
Harris wants to be governor of the “fifth-largest economy,” but conservatives laugh at the idea. California’s problems keep growing—homelessness, crime, and high taxes. Harris has been part of the liberal leadership that created this mess. Now she wants to fix it? Critics say that’s like asking a arsonist to put out a fire.
Even Bill Maher, who usually supports Democrats, mocked her. He said she’d be better off running a university. That’s a brutal swipe from someone on her own side. Kid Rock and Tim Ryan cheered Maher’s jokes, showing even entertainers see through Harris’s ambitions.
Some Democrats are scared to run against her. Katie Porter, a far-left congresswoman, hinted she won’t challenge Harris. Other big names like Rob Bonta say they’ll back her. But this isn’t about unity—it’s about fear. Harris’s team knows another loss would end her career.
Liberals love talking about “making history,” but Harris’s history is full of failure. She dropped out of the presidential race early in 2020. Then she lost as vice president. Now she wants a promotion? Voters should ask why she keeps failing upward.
The media still acts like Harris is a star. They ignore her unpopularity and focus on polls. But polls don’t win elections—votes do. Trump flipped 10 California counties last year. Harris’s woke policies are why Californians are fleeing to red states.
If Harris runs, she’ll blame others for California’s problems. But she’s been in politics for decades. She’s part of the elite that ruined the state. Conservatives hope she runs—it’ll show voters what another term of liberal control really means.
