Biden’s Team Poised to Strike if Harris Criticizes Him in Memoir

Political analyst Mark Halperin warns that if former Vice President Kamala Harris criticizes President Biden in her upcoming memoir, 107 Days, Biden’s team may retaliate. Halperin, speaking on 2Way’s “The Morning Meeting,” suggested the former vice president could face a public pushback featuring “Palin‑esque” tales of how she allegedly struggled while preparing for the vice presidency—claims that would be hard for her to refute.

Harris’s memoir recounts her 2024 presidential campaign, which began after Biden’s July withdrawal and will be published on September 23, 2025. The book reflects on her brief—but historic—107‑day run, offering an insider’s view of that pivotal moment.

Halperin emphasized that Biden’s team “gave her every opportunity”—highlighting her frequent meetings with world leaders and intensive preparation for assuming the top role. But he added that if they perceive her as a threat, “you will hear stories about Kamala Harris as vice president that will not make her look good.”

This development unfolds amid mounting scrutiny of Biden’s political durability. Recent accounts, such as Original Sin, have raised concerns over Biden’s cognitive health, internal campaign turmoil, and how those factors shaped the election outcome.
