Former Vice President Kamala Harris has indicated she may seek the presidency again in 2028.

In her first UK interview with the BBC's Laura Kuenssberg, she dismissed current polls positioning her as an outsider for the Democratic nomination.

Harris expressed confidence in a future female president and said she remains committed to public service.

Harris stated she has not yet decided on another run but emphasized her ongoing role in politics.

"I am not done," she said.

She highlighted her career as one of service and ignored polls that rank her behind figures like actor Dwayne Johnson.

"If I listened to polls I would have not run for my first office, or my second office - and I certainly wouldn't be sitting here."

Harris suggested her grandnieces would see a woman in the White House in their lifetime and responded "possibly" when asked if it could be her.

She is promoting her book, 107 Days, detailing her brief 2024 campaign after President Biden's withdrawal.

Criticism of President Trump

Harris accused President Donald Trump of fulfilling warnings she made during the campaign about authoritarian tendencies.

She branded him a tyrant with thin skin who has weaponized federal agencies.

Harris cited the suspension of comedian Jimmy Kimmel by ABC after a joke about Republicans, noting Trump's celebration and a threat from a Trump-appointed regulator.

"He said he would weaponise the Department of Justice - and he has done exactly that."

She criticized business leaders for capitulating to Trump to gain favor or avoid scrutiny.

A White House spokeswoman responded that Harris lost in a landslide and should accept the public's disinterest in her claims.

Harris attributed her 2024 defeat to the short campaign timeframe rather than strategic shortcomings.
