Outgoing Vice President Kamala Harris made an appearance for her supporters for the first time since taking a swift exit from the election stage after conceding defeat on November 6. In a video posted to her YouTube channel, Harris tried to showcase the silver lining in her cloud of disappointment. The introduction was delivered by her valiant running mate, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, who waxed poetic about her alleged greatness and their long-standing friendship. It was a triumphant moment, as her supporters must have been thrilled to see two politicians united in their shared struggle against, well, reality.
During her remarks, Harris doled out praise like a piñata bursting at the seams. She expressed deep gratitude to her supporters for their unwavering love of the country, as if that could somehow soften the blow of a loss that could be felt from coast to coast. As she thanked her faithful following for their “character” in a fight for democracy, one has to wonder if her definition of character includes accepting defeat without turning the blame towards anyone else.
Harris painted a picturesque image of the campaign, expressing pride in their efforts and the staggering amount of cash flow, totaling $1.4 billion. That is quite the fundraising feat, especially when you consider that it didn’t translate to an election victory. Instead, it seems to have funded a good chunk of the “what not to do” playbook, which might come in handy for future candidates looking to avoid her methods.
Harris tells supporters to protect their 'power' in first message since conceding election.

If nothing else, Harris insisted that the fire of America’s promise remains glowing bright, despite her and her party’s inability to fan the flames of victory this time around. Her vision of a future where “freedom and opportunity” reign supreme certainly elicited eye rolls among those who understand that the promise of America is more than just a campaign slogan; it involves tangible results in the voting booth.
Meanwhile, as the dust begins to settle from this chaos of an election, speculation brews about Harris’s next strategic move. Reports suggest she’s considering a run for California governor in two years or another shot at the presidency in 2028. One can almost hear her rallying cry of “I am staying in the fight,” echoing like a soundtrack meant for a champion—except in this case, the only thing she’s actually up against is losing the audience.
