Former Vice President Kamala Harris signaled that she may once again seek the White House, telling the BBC that a 2028 presidential bid is “possible” as she reflected on her loss to President Donald Trump last year. In her first UK interview, Harris expressed confidence that America will eventually elect a woman president — and suggested it could still be her. “I am not done,” she said, emphasizing her lifelong commitment to public service. Harris’s remarks represent her strongest indication yet that she is considering another run after Democrats suffered a crushing defeat in 2024. Asked directly if she could one day be president, Harris replied, “Possibly,” adding that her grandnieces would “for sure” see a woman in the White House in their lifetime. She dismissed polls placing her as a longshot — even trailing Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson — saying she has never let polling dictate her career decisions.

Harris’s comments come as Democrats continue to debate the causes of their 2024 loss. Many blamed President Joe Biden for not stepping aside sooner amid concerns about age and stamina, while others argued Harris herself failed to connect with voters on the economy, the campaign’s top issue. Her new memoir, 107 Days, recounts the final stretch of her campaign after Biden’s withdrawal, though she declined to speculate whether she might have won had Biden exited earlier. Harris also renewed criticism of Trump, calling him a “tyrant” and claiming her warnings about his behavior have been proven correct, citing his use of federal agencies against critics and his intolerance for political satire.

Despite the defeat being “traumatizing” for her campaign team, Harris insisted she is not finished with public service and is keeping her options open. She accused corporate and institutional leaders of “bending the knee at the foot of a tyrant” out of self-interest, and expressed determination to continue her political career. While the White House dismissed her remarks as grievances, Harris’s candor signals a shift from her previously cautious statements. As she left her London interview, Harris made it clear that she is not closing the door on 2028, leaving the possibility of another presidential bid very much alive.
