During a news conference on Thursday, Trump was asked to weigh in on Harris’ announcement the day prior that she won’t be running for governor of California in 2026. She told “The Late Show” host Stephen Colbert this week that she wasn’t ready just yet to go “back in the system,” which she said she thinks is broken.

Former Vice President Kamala Harris said she would not run for public office because the system is “broken,” as she reflected on her decision not to pursue a gubernatorial run in California and spoke about what she views as “capitulation” by those tasked with guarding democracy during Donald Trump’s second administration.

Kamala Harris’ decision not to enter the governor’s race is an immense victory for her would-be Democratic opponents, unlocking troves of donors who had been waiting for her announcement and voters who almost universally know the former vice president.

Former Vice President Kamala Harris still hopes to be president. That’s the most obvious conclusion to draw from Harris announcing over the course of 24 hours that she is not running for governor of California but is releasing a new book about her failed 2024 presidential campaign.

The book, "107 Days," will present a candid "behind-the-scenes account," Harris said. It's set for publication in September.

Former Vice President Kamala Harris has announced a new memoir called "107 Days," detailing her historic Democratic presidential run last year.
