Kamala Harris says that she no longer presents herself to her functions because the system is “broken”

“Recently, I have made the decision that for the moment I do not want to return to the system. I think it’s broken,” she said, causing weights The late showThe audience live is present.

“Listen, I’m a devout official,” said Harris. “I spent my whole career in the service of people and I thought a lot about the governor. I love my condition, I like California, I was elected district prosecutor, attorney general and senator. But to be very frank with you, when I was young in my career outside on the folded knee, or trying to break down the door?

While Harris clearly told Colbert, she “will always be part of the fight, that will not change”, the 60 -year -old politician said that she prefers to spend time traveling the country and listening to people without it being “transactional, where I ask for their vote”.

“There are so many good people who are civil servants who do such a good job,” said Harris. “Teachers, firefighters, police, nurses, scientists. It is not them, but I believe that as fragile as our democracy, our systems would be strong enough to defend our most fundamental principles. And I am thinking right now, they are not as strong as they should be. And I just don’t want to come back to the system. “

Harris agreed with Colbert, that a former vice-president and a presidential candidate calling the “broken” system is “painful”, but recognized that “power is with the people”.

“You can never let anyone take your power,” said Harris. “And that’s what I would like to remind people.”
