Trump Voters “Feel Lied To” on Deportations, Harris Claims

Kamala Harris is back not as a leader, but as a critic, a complainer, and a walking contradiction.

In a desperate bid to stay politically relevant, former Vice President Kamala Harris is now claiming that Trump voters feel “lied to” over immigration enforcement, suggesting they were shocked that deportations included “hardworking people,” not just criminals. Her remarks came during a sit-down interview with Don Lemon in Chicago while promoting her newly released memoir, 107 Days, a postmortem of her failed 2024 presidential campaign.

“I’ve talked to so many people who say, people who voted for Trump who say, ‘Well, we thought he was just going after what he said were criminals, but he’s going after hardworking people.’ And they feel lied to,” Harris told Lemon.

The irony is almost too rich. Kamala Harris part of the administration that oversaw the worst border crisis in American history is now pretending to empathize with Trump voters who supposedly didn’t understand that enforcing immigration law means, well, enforcing immigration law.

This comes as Harris launches her memoir tour to rebrand herself following a catastrophic campaign that never truly got off the ground. The title 107 Days refers to the short window she had to try to salvage Joe Biden’s collapsing reelection bid after he dropped out and endorsed her a window that closed swiftly and definitively at the ballot box.

The former VP didn't stop at immigration. She accused Trump of lying about inflation and claimed Americans were “ready to activate” against what she called “the weaponization of the rule of law.” That line might carry more weight if she weren’t simultaneously declaring that Americans can no longer trust the Department of Justice the same DOJ her administration wielded like a political bludgeon for four years.

“We want more than the corruption, the callousness, and frankly, the incompetence we’re seeing come out of the White House,” she added apparently unaware she was describing her own time in office.

Harris then tried to pivot toward activism, touting a “No Kings” protest and calling for a generational uprising language that sounded more like a losing campaign’s last gasp than a serious political movement.

Lemon, now fully transitioned into the role of personal cheerleader, praised Harris and her book, which has already received mixed to negative reviews for finger-pointing and offering little self-reflection. Critics have noted that Harris blames just about everyone from campaign staff to voters for her 2024 defeat, without taking responsibility for her own unpopularity, incoherent messaging, or repeated failures in office.

In another interview that aired Sunday on MSNBC, Harris continued her tirade, arguing that Trump’s DOJ indictments of disgraced former FBI Director James Comey and partisan New York Attorney General Letitia James prove the former president is running a “vengeance campaign.”

But in a twist no one saw coming, she also admitted that Trump deserves credit for negotiating the peace deal between Israel and Hamas that secured the release of hostages proving once again that even Harris can’t ignore Trump’s historic foreign policy achievements, no matter how hard she tries to distract from them.

Let’s be clear: this isn’t leadership. It’s grievance politics. Kamala Harris is trying to rewrite her legacy, but voters haven’t forgotten the reality:

• A wide-open southern border and record-high illegal crossings under her watch.

• Staggering inflation and economic anxiety during her administration.

• Foreign policy disasters and a trail of broken promises.

And now she wants Trump voters the very Americans she smeared for years to believe she’s on their side?

Don’t fall for the rewrite.
