<p>Recently released memos from former Vice President Kamala Harris&#8217;s 2024 presidential campaign reveal the Democrat&#8217;s public relations struggles in the waning days of her failed White House bid.</p>
<p>The memos — first reported by Josh Dawsey, Tyler Pager, and Isaac Arnsdorf in the forthcoming book &#8220;2024: How Trump Retook the White House and the Left Lost America&#8221; — were written by Maria Comella, a PR consultant who also <a href="https://www.comella.co/contact" target="_blank" rel="noopener">served as</a> chief strategist for Chris Christie&#8217;s 2024 presidential campaign.</p>
<p>In multiple instances, Comella <a href="https://www.politico.com/f/?id=00000197-e956-d05a-afb7-ed5645b00000" target="_blank" rel="noopener">urged</a> Harris to &#8220;Call out the Democratic Party for missing the mark on public safety in US cities.&#8221; The memo notes that Harris should demonstrate her willingness to criticize Democrats on top of &#8220;Trump&#8217;s chaos.&#8221;</p>
<p>The memo also urges Harris to appear on Joe Rogan&#8217;s podcast, noting that the host &#8220;will be looking for authenticity and it&#8217;s an opportunity to differentiate in style. Be honest about mistakes. There is a natural leadership contrast with Trump who can never admit when he is wrong.&#8221;</p>
<p>President Donald Trump joined Rogan&#8217;s show in late October, after which Rogan <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/joe-rogan-endorses-trump-for-president" target="_blank" rel="noopener">endorsed.</a> In response, Harris&#8217;s campaign <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/joe-rogan-says-harris-campaign-lied-about-her-failed-appearance-on-his-show-brings-receipts" target="_blank" rel="noopener">complained</a> that Rogan misled them in a malicious attempt to sabotage her presidential run.</p>
<p>Rogan retorted that the Harris campaign &#8220;never agreed to do the show. None of that&#8217;s true … They also said that they sent someone down here to the studio to do a walk-through of the set. That&#8217;s not true.&#8221;</p>
<p>The <a href="https://www.politico.com/f/?id=00000197-e958-da98-a3b7-f95a2eec0000">memo</a> lists former The View cohost Meredith Vieira and sports podcaster Bill Simmons as alternatives to Rogan. Harris never joined Rogan, Vieira, or Simmons, but did make an <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/kamala-blasted-for-going-on-explicit-call-her-daddy-podcast-as-americans-are-dying" target="_blank" rel="noopener">appearance</a> on the explicit podcast &#8220;Call Her Daddy.&#8221;</p>
<p>In accompanying memos published in the same book, Harris was urged to distance herself from then-President Joe Biden, who had only recently dropped out of the race.</p>
<p>Referring to the Biden administration&#8217;s disastrous border policies, the <a href="https://www.politico.com/f/?id=00000197-e958-de82-a7d7-ff5cedae0000" target="_blank" rel="noopener">memo</a> told Harris not to &#8220;waste time defending what has happened. Acknowledge the mistake, define the problem and how we have to act moving forward.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;It turns out it is okay to acknowledge mistakes and failures– particularly if it shows voters where the Vice President is different from President Biden,&#8221; the memo reads.</p>
<p>Harris infamously refused to critique Biden&#8217;s handling of the border in a &#8220;60 Minutes&#8221; interview, during which she was asked <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/kamala-repeatedly-refuses-to-say-it-was-a-mistake-to-allow-illegal-aliens-to-flood-into-u-s" target="_blank" rel="noopener">repeatedly</a> about the issue. Instead, she blamed the massive influx of illegal aliens on Congress.</p>
<p>The memos also mention issues with vocal Trump opponents, including former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY).</p>
<p>&#8220;In many instances, the voices who are willing to speak out publicly in support of Vice President Harris are imperfect messengers who are viewed with a skeptical eye by the audiences you still need to persuade,&#8221; the memo reads.</p>
<p>The book in which these memos were published also <a href="https://www.politico.com/playbook" target="_blank" rel="noopener">details</a> how Harris was urged to steer away from using the events of Jan. 6th as the crux of her argument in a late October <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/kamala-harris-speech-ellipse-donald-trump-2024-election/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">speech</a> in Washington, D.C.</p>
<p>Instead, Harris concluded her speech  by saying Trump &#8220;is the person who stood at this very spot nearly four years ago and sent an armed mob to the United States Capitol to overturn the will of the people in a free and fair election, an election that he knew he lost.&#8221;</p>
