Having disastrously failed at a job promotion, ex-VP Kamala Harris is nonetheless trying to be stone-cold serious about her legacy.
Harris declared herself to be a “historic figure” on Tuesday and touted that there will be a marble bust of her constructed in Congress.
She made the statement during an interview with The New York Times regarding her upcoming book, “107 Days,” telling the newspaper that she no longer feels “burdened” by the need to achieve a place in history.
“I understand the focus on ’28 and all that,” she told the Times. “But there will be a marble bust of me in Congress. I am a historic figure like any vice president of the United States ever was.”
“Thousands of people are coming to hear my voice. Thousands and thousands,” she added about her book tour. “Every place we’ve gone has been sold out.”
Harris may also see a marble bust of her likeness erected someday amid Aroostook County’s sprawling potato fields – but for a far-different reason.
Maine’s northern congressional district was the only one in New England that voted for Trump in the 2024 election that saw Harris go down in defeat across middle America.
In other words, Harris was a huge bust in the heartland of Maine where backbreaking work, not political platitude, reigns proud.
