Harris Calls Biden’s 2024 Re‑Election Bid ‘Reckless’ in Excerpts From Forthcoming Memoir

She accuses Biden’s advisers of working against her rise.

Overview

  • The Atlantic published excerpts from 107 Days, Harris’s memoir on the 2024 campaign, offering her most direct criticism yet of Biden’s decision to run again.
  • She writes that seeking a second term was “reckless,” arguing the choice should not have hinged on one person’s ego.
  • Harris links Biden’s poor June 2024 debate to age‑related fatigue following two Europe trips and a West Coast fundraiser.
  • She rejects claims she concealed health issues and says Biden, even on a bad day, was more competent and compassionate than Donald Trump.
  • Harris says the president’s inner circle failed to back her and sometimes worked against her, contending that a zero‑sum mindset undercut the ticket.
