Kamala Harris Gives Blunt Review of Stuck in the Past' Democratic Party
"I think that in some ways, we are very much stuck in the past. And so we're not speaking in a way that sounds authentic or relatable or just relevant. You know, we got to speak to this moment, she said. Harris encouraged her party to listen to newer voices in the party, even when they communicate in a different style than older Democrats."
"That is about recognizing we give a lot of lip service to listening to the people but are we really listening? she said. Harrison rejected the idea of purity tests in the party. I think these purity tests that we see within our party also are very harmful. You know, if we say that we are the big-tent party, then that means you can't dismiss everybody just because the one issue they don't agree with you on, he argued."
A 107-day presidential campaign ended without victory and produced a behind-the-scenes book titled 107 Days. The Democratic Party recorded exciting wins, such as Zohran Mamdani's New York City mayoral victory. The party remains perceived as stuck in the past, with messaging that often fails to sound authentic, relatable, or relevant. There is a call to listen to newer voices even when communication styles differ from older Democrats. Concerns include lip service to listening rather than substantive engagement and internal purity tests that could undermine a big-tent coalition. No decision has been announced about a potential 2028 presidential run.
