    Here’s the gist of the article:

    1. In her memoir 107 Days, Kamala Harris claims her presidential campaign faltered simply because she didn’t have enough time — the article argues the real issue was that she lacked a clear vision and failed to connect meaningfully with voters.

    2. The campaign leaned heavily on celebrity endorsements and loud visuals instead of substance, leading many voters to feel she was more style than substance, and that she didn’t really understand their everyday concerns.

    3. Despite massive funding and early momentum, the deeper problem was that she never defined why people should vote for her — not just to stop someone else — and the book lays bare how that lack of self-awareness sealed the campaign’s fate.
