Kamala Harris’s latest venture is raising eyebrows. The former vice president, now 60 and unemployed, announced a 15-city international tour to promote her memoir, “107 Days,” which chronicles her failed 2024 presidential bid. Critics are pouncing, calling it a tone-deaf celebration of defeat.
The New York Post reported that on Thursday, Harris revealed plans for a book tour starting September 24, 2025, to promote her memoir about her 107-day presidential campaign, sparking widespread online mockery and sharp criticism from political figures.
The book, released a day before the tour begins, offers a “behind-the-scenes” look at what Harris calls “the shortest presidential campaign in modern history.” The announcement, made via a cheerful X post with a campaign trail montage, has fueled accusations of political miscalculation.
Harris’s campaign began July 21, 2024, after President Joe Biden withdrew his re-election bid following a weak debate performance against Donald Trump.
She stepped into the Democratic nomination spotlight, initially earning glowing media coverage and some favorable polls. Yet, the momentum fizzled, and she lost the popular vote—a rare feat for a Democrat in two decades.
The internet wasted no time skewering Harris’s tour. “Never seen someone celebrating an L like that lol,” quipped one X user, capturing the sentiment of many who see the tour as a bizarre flex.
The phrase “loser tour” trended, reflecting a public unimpressed by Harris’s attempt to spin defeat into a literary event. Another X user sarcastically dubbed it “How to blow 2.5B in 107 days,” referencing the campaign’s hefty spending.
The mockery suggests Harris’s team misread the room, banking on public interest in a campaign that ended in disappointment. Conservative commentators, in particular, are having a field day.
North Carolina GOP Rep. Virginia Foxx called it “a nationwide comedy tour.” Her jab underscores the skepticism among Republicans, who view the tour as a self-own rather than a savvy political move. The criticism stings, given Harris’s stated goal of sharing “lessons learned” to unite the country.
Deputy White House Press Secretary Abigail Jackson didn’t hold back. “She’s doing a tour about how she lost?” Jackson asked, her incredulity echoing across conservative circles. The question cuts deep, framing the tour as a perplexing choice for someone eyeing future political relevance.
Jackson doubled down, questioning Harris’s team’s judgment. “Does her team have 0 self-awareness or do they just hate her?” she posted, suggesting the tour could sabotage any 2028 ambitions. The zinger highlights a conservative view that Harris is out of touch with voters’ priorities.
Versus Media Podcast host Stephen L. Miller piled on the sarcasm. “Because if this last election taught us anything, it’s that people want to hear more from her,” he said, implying Harris’s message failed to resonate. The comment reflects a broader conservative frustration with what they see as her persistent progressive agenda.
Harris, undeterred, claims the tour will offer insights into her campaign’s lessons. She aims to share an “inside peek” at ways to keep the country united and build a path forward together.” But the lofty rhetoric feels hollow to critics who see it as a rehash of failed talking points.
The tour kicks off in New York, with stops in Canada, Washington, DC, and London, before wrapping up in Miami on November 20, 2025.
The international scope has raised eyebrows, as conservatives argue it’s an odd choice for a campaign rooted in domestic issues. The itinerary seems more suited to a victory lap than a post-mortem.
Harris’s memoir title, “107 Days,” nods to the brevity of her campaign. It’s a bold move to lean into the timeline, but critics argue it only highlights her failure to connect with voters. The book’s release timing, just before the tour, feels like a calculated bid for relevance.
Conservatives see the tour as a misstep, reinforcing perceptions of Harris as disconnected from everyday Americans. The cheerful X montage accompanying her announcement contrasts sharply with the public’s frustration over her loss. It’s a reminder of the progressive optimism that many voters rejected.
Yet, Harris’s supporters might argue she’s reclaiming her narrative. By framing the campaign as a learning experience, she’s attempting to stay in the public eye. But with the electorate still stinging from 2024, conservatives doubt there’s an appetite for her story.
