Watch: Hilarious Moment as Kamala Tries to Figure Out Who’s in Charge of the Democratic Party and Fails Miserably
Former Vice President Kamala Harris, in her first interview sence losing the 2024 presidential election too Donald Trump, conveyed uncertainty about who leads the Democratic Party. During her conversation with Stephen Colbert on “the Late Show,” Harris emphasized that there are many leaders rather than a single clear leader, a stance interpreted by critics as an indication that the party lacks decisive leadership. The article highlights the Democratic Party’s leadership challenges, mentioning that key figures like Democratic National Committee Chair Ken Martin, former President joe Biden, and various governors either face their own issues or avoid stepping into a leadership role. This contrasts sharply with the Republican Party, where former president Trump is seen as the obvious leader. The piece underscores the urgency for Democrats to identify and unite behind a strong leader ahead of upcoming midterm and presidential elections.
Who is at the helm of the Democratic Party? Apparently, nobody according to former Vice President Kamala Harris.
Harris’ first interview since losing the November election to President Donald Trump occurred Thursday when she sat down with “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” host Stephen Colbert to discuss the status of her party and more.
Not that anyone needed reassuring that the Democrats were without real leadership going into next year’s midterms or the 2028 presidential election.
COLBERT: “Who is leading the Democratic Party?”
KAMALA: “There are a lot of leaders.”Translation: There is no clear leader. And if she is to nominate a leader by endorsing them with her opinion, she will be eaten alive by her party. She is captured.

“Who’s leading the Democratic Party?” Colbert asked.
Harris gave one of her typical nonsensical answers, which voters became extremely familiar with during the 2024 election cycle: “There are lots of leaders,” she said before Colbert cut her off, “A leader of the Democratic Party? Like, ‘Oh, that’s the leader of the Democratic Party.’ Who comes to mind?”
“I think there are a lot,” Harris restated. “I’m not going to go through names because then I’m going to leave somebody out, and then I’m going to hear about it.
“Let me say this, I think that it is a mistake for us who want to figure out how to get out and through this and get out of it, to put it on the shoulders of any one person.
“It’s really on all of our shoulders.”
Translation: Nobody is running this party, it’s a disaster.
Whoever may come to mind can quickly be ruled out. Democratic National Committee Chair Ken Martin is too busy quarreling with former Vice Chair David Hogg.
Former President Joe Biden is out of the question, existing as a husk of his former self from his days in the Senate.
Former President Barack Obama prefers to keep a lower profile as allegations swirl about his role in the Russian collusion hoax against Trump, and former President Bill Clinton and former first lady and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton do not need any more media attention than they can garner through controversy alone.
Names like Pennsylvania, Minnesota, and California Govs. Josh Shapiro, Tim Walz, and Gavin Newsom each have their own hindrances that keep them from being the obvious choice.
It would be obvious if there was anyone.
Who leads the Republican party? Trump.
You don’t even need to think about it.
The clock is ticking for the Democrats to find that person. The political world is not going to hit pause for them to get their house in order.
