WASHINGTON, DC: Vice President Kamala Harris believes the 2024 election could be the United States' last democratic election.

In a recent interview on the 'I've Had It' podcast, Harris agreed with a co-host who claimed this year's election could be the last the country would have, according to The Hill.

With the VP discussing former President Donald Trump's remarks about being a dictator on the first day of his second term in the White House, co-host Angie 'Pumps' Sullivan said, "I don't think it's hyperbolic to say this genuinely could be the last democratic election we ever have."

Harris agreed with the argument, stating, "You're right."

Kamala Harris says world leaders are concerned about the 2024 US election

Bringing the vice president's attention to the GOP presumptive nominee's dictatorial tendencies, co-host Sullivan said, "Listen to what he says, he's telling you. Dictators aren't a dictator for one day, and then it's let the people decide."

Harris voiced the concerns she heard from world leaders, saying, "No, and I'm going to tell you. As vice president, I've now met with over 150 world leaders … in the last three international trips I've taken — which are going back to the end of last year through this year — world leaders have come up to me, expressing their real concern about this election."

"When they do, it is out of a selfish point that they're making because they know that whether or not America retains its democracy will have an impact on countries around the world and people around the world," she added.



 

President Joe Biden also shared similar claims of a global cry for him to defeat Trump in the 2024 presidential election.

Speaking at a campaign rally in South Carolina in late January, the 81-year-old incumbent argued after every international meeting he attends, world leaders pull him aside, saying, "You've got to win, we can't let that happen again."

Earlier this year, Harris said she was "scared as heck" about the possibility of Trump winning a second White House term, which motivated her to traverse the country.

So far, she has traveled to 16 states as part of the Biden-Harris re-election campaign. She will visit Arizona on April 12 following the state Supreme Court's recent near-total abortion ban reviving a 19th-century Civil War-era law.

Internet slams Kamala Harris

Netizens criticized Harris for promoting the rhetoric of 2024 being the last democratic election in the US.

One user labeled the remarks, "Fear mongering for political gain." Meanwhile, another wrote, "Insane that a Vice President would use such rhetoric."



 



 

"Democrat Political Strategy 101: When you have no successes to run on, fear monger," a third user remarked.



 

Someone else slammed Harris, saying, "Speaking of wrecklessly dangerous behavior. This woman is a trainwreck." A fifth response read, "She probably believes her own crazy."



 



 

"The ultimate far-left conspiracy theory. What a kook," an individual argued.

Whereas one claimed, "That’s ridiculous… I have enough faith in our country to know that the tenets laid out in the U.S. Constitution will be protected regardless of who wins the election. The American people would never allow that to happen."
