Vice President Kamala Harris has hinted at her intention to return to the public eye, potentially paving the way for a future career move. While she has decided not to run for California governor in 2026, she has left open the possibility of running for president in 2028.
Harris expressed her desire to listen to the American people and help Democrats across the country get elected. Her commitment to supporting Democrats nationwide and reflecting on her political path suggests that a presidential campaign in 2028 remains a viable option.
However, Harris's recent gestures, such as offering help to fire victims, have been met with mockery and scorn from some users. This backlash has not deterred her from expressing her intentions, as she plans to reveal more about her plans in the coming months.
President Joe Biden has also spoken out about Harris's future, but details about his remarks remain unclear. The uncertainty surrounding her future role in politics has sparked speculation about whether Harris is considering a career as a political consultant, but no concrete evidence has surfaced to support this theory.
Regardless of her future role, Harris's decision to skip the 2026 gubernatorial race removes a likely barrier to a 2028 presidential run, as winning the California governorship would likely preclude another White House bid in that cycle. For now, Harris has stated that her leadership and public service will not be in elected office, but she plans to remain active in politics and may share more details about her future plans later.
