Kamala Harris Says It Was ‘Recklessness’ Not to Question Biden’s Decision to Run Last Year in New Book Excerpt

Kamala Harris calls Biden’s 2024 reelection bid reckless, citing concerns about his age and White House staff undermining her, with 76% of voters worried about his health in early 2024.

  • Kamala Harris, who served as vice president and became the Democratic nominee in the 2024 election, discusses her perspective on Joe Biden’s decision to seek reelection in her memoir '107 Days,' with an excerpt released on September 10, 2025.
