Former Vice President Kamala Harris’ 2024 presidential campaign as an epic disaster.
And if you can believe it, things could have been even worse for Harris if she moved forward with a campaign strategy involving Viagra and President Donald Trump.
According to excerpts from her new book, “107 Days,” Harris revealed her debate preparation against Trump during the 2024 election included how to handle a handful of crude hypothetical attacks on abortion… and Viagra use.
According to the book, to prepare for her debate against Trump Harris enlisted a team of advisers and a veteran trial attorney Harris compared to a “wartime consigliere.” Then VP-Harris and her team traveled to the basement of Howard University, her undergraduate alma mater, to prepare for the upcoming debate with Trump.
According to sources cited in the book, the debate prep focused on Harris being in tune with hot button issues impacting voters she could effectively present her argument on stage.
However, Harris said she and her team also was trained for the “the painful matter of imagining what kinds of personal attacks Trump might mount against me.”
“‘He might ask you if you’ve ever had an abortion,’ one adviser said,” Harris wrote of her time devising her debate strategies.
“If he did, the response would be: That’s none of your business and that’s not what we’re here for,” she continued.
Harris continued that another individual in the debate prep room floated “a dark joke that if he got that personal, I should ask if he took Viagra.”
“Another: Had he ever paid for an abortion?” she continued.
During the live debate, both Trump and Harris were asked about abortion, but it never culminated into personal attacks on hypothetical abortions or Viagra use.
“In the end, he didn’t go down that track. He probably knew a question like that would be exceedingly thin ice for him—and would infuriate just about every woman in America,” Harris wrote.
Harris also discussed that members of her team discussed her memorizing certain things, a strategy she did not align with.
Harris added that her team wrote a debate card “for every nuance of every subject, and once I memorized what was on that card, I’d draw a big, loopy X across it.”
“I am not a trained seal; I’m not going to memorize lines and spout them. I have to understand the logic and building blocks of every argument so I can present it clearly and defend it persuasively,” she wrote.
Harris’ book, “107 Days,” hit shelves tomorrow and reflects on the 107 days she had on the presidential campaign trail after Biden dropped out of the race amid mounting concern over his mental acuity.
So far, there have been many bombshells about her relationship with Joe Biden to come from the book, including a story that her inner circle created a detailed plan to replace Biden called the “Red File” a full year before Biden withdrew from the 2024 race.
Harris revealed that her brother-in-law Tony West developed the contingency plan because “it would be malpractice on my part to be unprepared if, God forbid, something should happen” to the elderly president.
The “Red File” included lists of the first calls to world leaders and political colleagues, timing for Harris’s first statement, and transition rules should Biden be removed from office.
