Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA), a probable candidate for 2020, was at George Washington University in D.C. last night to talk about her new book, “The Truth We Hold: An American Journey”:

And the first thing she did was copy celebrity Dem Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez with a little bit of dancing as she entered the stage:

She also channeled President Donald Trump and defended the use of her gut when making decisions, although she says there’s no evidence Trump has a gut whatever that was supposed to mean:
What's difference between Trump's gut and Kamala Harris' gut?
Harris: "That assumes facts, not evidence, that he has a gut. I think there is a thing about leadership which is that you have to have the courage to do things that are in the best interest of the people you lead…"— Kailani Koenig (@kailanikm) January 10, 2019
And like the president, she tweeted out a photo of the line to get into her event (although it’s a much shorter line than at Trump’s events):
Thankful for everyone who's braving the cold. About to speak at @GWtweets soon. pic.twitter.com/uIKj7JjMH6

There was much 2020 swag on hand for her eventual announcement:

And she’s got the official Dem playlist down:
Not one but TWO Springsteen songs on the playlist before Kamala Harris event at GWU.
Folks… she's running.

Sen. Harris said she will make a 2020 decision “soon”:
On 2020:
Q: "Do you have a timetable for making a decision?"
A: "Soon. Can we talk about the children's book?"And then Harris picks up the children's book, "You Are a Superhero," that was released the same day as her memoir.

Which could be as early as Martin Luther King weekend if these sources can be believed:
Sen. Kamala Harris has decided to seek the 2020 Democratic nomination for president, sources close to her told KCBS Radio. https://t.co/g9JUNfMQMT
