Kamala Harris’s Political Comeback: From Broadway to the Ballot Box?
In a surprising turn of events, former Vice President Kamala Harris, fresh off a crushing defeat in the 2024 election, has resurfaced on Broadway, delivering a speech that left many wondering about her political future. Despite losing both the Electoral College and popular vote to Donald Trump last November, Harris seems determined to remain in the public eye, potentially eyeing a gubernatorial run in 2026 or even another shot at the presidency in 2028. Her recent appearance at “A Wonderful World,” a Broadway show about Louis Armstrong, has sparked debate about her relevance and ability to connect with voters beyond her core demographic.
From White House to Great White Way: Harris’s Broadway Moment
In what can only be described as an odd choice for a political comeback, Kamala Harris decided to address the cast of a Broadway show about Louis Armstrong. It’s as if she’s forgotten that the average American is more concerned with putting food on the table than jazz hands on stage. But hey, when you’re out of touch with reality, why not embrace the theater of the absurd?
During her speech, Harris, apparently channeling her inner drama queen, proclaimed, “I don’t get out much these days,” and “the spirit’s tired, but cannot be defeated.” Well, Madame Former Vice President, the American people might beg to differ on that last point. They seemed pretty clear about defeating your spirit at the ballot box last November.
The Harris Doctrine: Expanding Rights or Pushing Agendas?
In her Broadway soliloquy, Harris harped on about the importance of expanding rights and being vigilant against restrictions. It’s a tune we’ve heard before, but this time it’s playing to a much smaller audience. One can’t help but wonder if she was alluding to her stance on abortion or taking a swipe at Trump’s executive order on women’s sports. Because nothing says “expanding rights” like denying biological reality, right?
It’s almost comical how Harris continues to push her agenda, seemingly oblivious to the fact that the American people have already given her a clear “exit, stage left” cue. But in the grand tradition of political has-beens, she’s determined to keep the show going, even if the audience has long since left the theater.
The Road Ahead: Governor Harris or Madame President 2.0?
As we look to the future, the question remains: what’s next for Kamala Harris? Will she set her sights on the California governor’s mansion in 2026, or is she delusional enough to think she has a shot at the presidency in 2028? One thing’s for sure, her current strategy of preaching to the choir (or in this case, the cast) isn’t going to win over the hearts and minds of mainstream America.
“I don’t get out much these days” – Kamala Harris
Perhaps Harris should take a cue from the Louis Armstrong show she so admired and recognize when it’s time to exit stage right. After all, in politics as in jazz, knowing when to end the solo is just as important as knowing how to play. But for now, it seems we’re stuck with this political encore that nobody asked for, as Harris desperately tries to keep her relevance from fading into the final curtain call of her career.
