Charlamagne tha God lauds book reveal, shares skepticism about Harris in 2028

Charlamagne tha God shared skepticism on the possibility of another White House bid from former Vice President Harris on Thursday but encouraged her to connect with people by publishing a book. 

“I don’t know if she should run again, but I definitely would like to see her write a book. I definitely would like to see her start a podcast and just build a real connection with people,” Charlamagne said during a Thursday episode of “The Breakfast Club.” 

“And she is relatively young. I just don’t know what’s going to happen in 2028, man. I just think Democrats suck so bad. I don’t know,” he added. 

Some have speculated Harris is planning to enter the presidential race in 2028, where her Democratic opponents could range from Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (N.Y.) to California Gov. Gavin Newsom.

“I think Kamala can definitely be a leader in the Democratic Party. And I mean, I think the interesting thing about the former VP is I kind of like that strategy,” Charlamagne told listeners. 

On Wednesday, Harris announced she would not launch a bid for governor in the Golden State. 

However, she also promoted her new book “107 Days,” focused on the behind-the-scenes of the campaign trail she undertook months after former President Biden dropped out of the race. 

In the past, Charlamagne lauded Harris for reviving a “dead” campaign but said President Trump captured audiences and spoke to voter grievances better. 

Harris is expected to give her first formal post-election remarks in a Thursday interview on “The Late Show” with Stephen Colbert. 

Colbert, whose show is ending next year, has been critical of both Trump and his network CBS’s parent company, Paramount, in a lawsuit Trump brought against “60 Minutes” over its editing of an interview with Harris.
