Now Biden's US ambassador to Japan, Emanuel is considering a possible run to lead the Democratic Party.
In his column, Emanuel said the Democratic Party has been "blind to the rising sea of disillusionment."
And for those who have been wronged and betrayed, I am your retribution,' he was channeling a nation's fury," Emanuel wrote.
The race to lead the Democratic Party during Trump's second administration is particularly crowded.
Martin O'Malley, Wisconsin Democratic Party chair Ben Wikler, and Ken Martin, chair of the Minnesota Democratic Farmer-Labor Party, are also in the running.
