In her first interview since leaving office, former Vice President Kamala Harris irresponsibly called President Donald Trump a “tyrant” despite his having been dutifully elected to office by a majority of Americans.
Harris did so only weeks after a deranged, young male leftist who was brainwashed into believing Charlie Kirk was everything that’s wrong with America, including being a “fascist,” murdered the conservative firebrand.
“Right now, we are dealing with … a tyrant,” the former vice president told MSNBC host Rachel Maddow in an interview that aired Monday.
“We used to compare the strength of our democracy to communist dictators. That’s what we’re dealing with right now under Donald Trump,” she added, suggesting Trump is a “communist dictator.”

The irony was remarkable because she later in the same interview put her support behind New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani, a veritable communist if ever there were one in modern America.
“As far as I’m concerned, he’s the Democrat nominee, and he should be supported,” she said. “I support the Democrat in the race, sure.”

Harris also slammed private corporations and “titans of industry” for aligning themselves with Trump, a Republican who some have said is the most pro-business-friendly president America has had in a while.
According to the former VP, these corporations should be joining the so-called “resistance” against Trump’s successful administration.
“I am a lifelong public servant,” she began. “I’ve worked closely with the private sector over many years. And I always believed that if push came to shove, those titans of industry would be guardrails for our democracy, for the importance of sustaining democratic institutions. And one by one by one, they have been silent.”
“Perhaps it’s because they want a merger approved, or they want to avoid an investigation. But at some point, they’ve got to stand up for the sake of the people who rely on all of these institutions — to have integrity and to, at some point, be the guardrails against a tyrant [who] was using the federal government to execute his whim and fancy because of a fragile ego,” she added.
To be clear, President Trump is executing “his whim and fancy” because he fairly won the 2024 presidential election. In addition, polls show that an average of 46 percent of Americans approve of his work.

Speaking of the “resistance,” Harris framed all the left’s whining over hack comedian Jimmy Kimmel being suspended by ABC News as a successful example of what quality resistance looks like.
“Talk about the power being with the people — and the people making that clear with their checkbooks — as it relates to the suspension of Jimmy Kimmel,” she said. “We saw the power of the people over the last few days, and it spoke volumes, and it moved a decision in the right direction.”
“I think that part of where we are now — in terms of thinking about what the fight is — it requires us, yes, to understand that we’ve got this administration and this president in front of us abusing the power that the people vested him with, but we also need to understand that this is bigger than Donald Trump,” she added.

The interview came ahead of the release of Harris’s 2024 presidential election memoir, “107 Days.”
In the book, she reportedly slams former President Joe Biden for not throwing Israel under the bus.
“I had pleaded with Joe, when he spoke publicly on this issue, to extend the same empathy he showed to the suffering of Ukrainians to the suffering of innocent Gazan civilians,” she writes, according to Mediaite.
