Kamala Harris Labels Her Silence on Biden’s 2024 Reelection Bid ‘Reckless,’ Reflects on Election Loss

Former Vice President Kamala Harris has publicly expressed deep regret for not challenging former President Joe Biden’s decision to seek reelection in 2024, describing her inaction as ‘reckless.’ In a series of candid interviews on ‘Good Morning America’ and ‘The View’ on September 23, 2025, Harris opened up about the 2024 election loss and her personal reflections.
Speaking with Michael Strahan, Harris admitted she ‘grieved’ her 2024 defeat in a way she hadn’t since her mother’s passing. She acknowledged that her decision not to voice concerns about Biden’s reelection bid was a ‘recklessness,’ driven by a fear of appearing ‘self-serving.’
Harris also addressed her struggle to differentiate herself from Biden during the campaign, stating that while she believed her policy proposals were clear, she ‘didn’t fully appreciate that how much of an issue it was yet that President Biden was deeply unpopular.’ She maintained that her loyalty to Biden, which she felt made it difficult to offer public distinctions, was a significant factor.
Looking ahead, Harris offered a critique of the Democratic Party’s strategy, suggesting that the Biden administration’s focus on long-term projects like infrastructure should have been preceded by addressing the immediate needs of American families, such as affordable childcare and paid leave. Despite the 2024 outcome, Harris expressed optimism that America would eventually elect a woman president in her lifetime, noting her own history as a trailblazer.
