Kamala Harris: "We must accept the results of this election. Earlier today, I spoke with President-elect Trump and congratulated him on his victory. I also told him that we will help him and his team with their transition and that we will engage in a peaceful transfer of power."

And I can’t see anyone believing justice is fair. It isn’t. And democracy has definitely crumbled due to insane beliefs by those who are destroying it.
One is from Timothy Snyder on how tyranny comes to rise, the other is Dr. MLK's lamentation on the nature of the white moderate.
- Big victory seemingly unaffected by campaign reality
- Called same day
- Popular vote victory with the margin he claimed he always had

Any compromising info either comes from Thiel or Putin.
She doesn't have to worry about consequences. We will, but not her.
Meanwhile, Republicans:
Unfortunately, chauvinism and racism are alive and well in America.
But I hate that this is what is happening.
Trump: What is that?
Why is she like this? My God we missed out.
I hope the Democratic Party will regret running her instead of someone who would actually win.
But yeah, she seems really dignified slinking out of the race.

How about the millions of democrat voters that didn't show up give themselves a nice little pat on the back while they scream at people like me about the horror unfolding.
Trump had worse popular numbers this time round and still won.
Playing along with the double standard the media want to impose is idiotic.
We needed laws to protect us from the likes of trump and didn't have them.
That's certainly how it feels when our leaders roll over and die to enable fascist autocrats.
“Well, everyone I love died in the camps, but at least I didn’t fight back!”
Trump literally attacked our Capitol: never apologized (the opposite really: doubled down), never facilitated a transfer of power.
And here we are losing again.
DUH!
Good lord he’s disgusting.
And I loathe all those calling themselves “Christians” who laughingly believe felon turnip was chosen by God.
I’m not saying Harris kissed his ass, she didn’t. But she was decent towards him and any positive action towards him he will not view as harshly as someone who degrades him.
You can’t continually tell us he’s a danger and then treat it like, ah, it’s nothin’.
But we never do.
And this is why Democrats lose, over and over. We pick people with no backbone.
That's because there will never be a transfer of power again
That and the racism & toxic masculinity.
I wish Harris had simply ignored the win. Not called, not given any indication either way.
But her grace means trump won’t see her as an enemy because her acknowledgment fed his ego.
I'm so tired.
However…I think seeing the orange clown back in the WH will fire us up once again to just keep fighting.
