Live: Kamala's Concession Speech

Vice President Kamala Harris called her opponent to concede and will now give the traditional concession speech. In a democracy, these steps are the crucial building blocks which help enable the peaceful transfer of power.

Why is she conceding? Trump still hasn't conceded 2020.

Democrats will fundraise like mad over the next four years. They love being the opposition party. Newsom's campaign kicks off today! Almost like it was planned!

@#2 ... Why is she conceding? Trump still hasn't conceded 2020. ...

My guess would be that VP Harris is dedicated to the peaceful transfer of power, something that apparently was not on Pres-elect Trump's agenda back on 2020/2021.

Sigh.

As usual, Good is good to Evil. That's why it always loses.

---"comments of little note nor long remembered"

Joe Bide is still the potus.

What different nation this would be today if Donald Trump had yhe decency to have conceded in2020! But he isn't decent and we shall see him prove that over the next four years.

#9 | Posted by danni at 2024-11-06 04:44 PM

the tears were particularly delicious to see...

the avalanche of campaign platitudes still going on and on and on.....would make anyone weep.

now....get out.

Well the MAGA have spoken. They wanted a felonious douchebag adulterous person as President rather than a woman and they are getting it.
Say goodbye to Obama care. Say goodbye to much of the federal government oversight on health and safety.
Say HELLO to Steven Miller as deportation czar. Brain worm Kennedy as HHS. Two more YOUNG MAGA trumpanzee candidates for the Supreme Court (Two will now retire.)

Say hello in a year or so to President J.D. Couchboy Vance.

Vaccines will be outlawed.

Flouride removed from the drinking water.

Because RFK Jr. read something on the internet

You all are panicking over nothing. You'll learn to love him like a father figure. Then we'll all be friends.

#13 | Posted by fortfisher at 2024-11-06 05:05 PM

Newsom's campaign kicks off today!

There's no way in hell he's getting elected.

Well, he'll be running against Vance and Trump Jr. Maybe you're right.

I'm suggesting the Dems better find someone else. They just got their butts kicked with one California liberal...

Kamala is hardly liberal. A moderate at best.

#17 | Posted by LauraMohr at 2024-11-06 05:43 PM

AOC turned 35 last month ;)

#18 | Posted by GOnoles92 at 2024-11-06 05:46 PM

She didn't concede. She's telling her supporters to continue to fight and resist and use the courts.

#19 | Posted by visitor_ at 2024-11-06 06:14 PM

Before you can choose a presidential candidate you have to choose the platform.

#20 | Posted by NerfHerder at 2024-11-06 06:17 PM

What was the Republican platform?

#21 | Posted by truthhurts at 2024-11-06 06:18 PM

Project 2025.

#22 | Posted by visitor_ at 2024-11-06 06:26 PM

She did what he should have done last time, but was too much a violent, lying, criminal traitor thug to man up and to concede.

A much better 'man' than him. And a much more patriotic American.

According Clarence Thomas' reading of the Constitution, Trump can run again in 2028 because the terms were not consecutive.

#24 | Posted by visitor_ at 2024-11-06 07:30 PM

Trump can run again in 2028

He'll be lucky to make it to next summer.

That's ignorance talking. He can't run again in 2028. The Constitution does not say that the two terms must run consecutive to each other. It says that the presidency is limited to two terms or 10 years. Which ever comes first.

As a gay black man, I could not be more angry at the racist white women and white men that gave us Trump.

And now, Jack Smith is dropping his charges against Trump.

www.theguardian.com

This makes everything look like it was just political from the start giving Republican yet another win.

#27 | Posted by darren_young at 2024-11-06 08:14 PM

LOL the constitution is just a piece of paper.

#28 | Posted by truthhurts at 2024-11-06 08:18 PM

As a gay black man...

Did I mention it would be raining sock puppets?

#29 | Posted by REDIAL at 2024-11-06 08:39 PM

"#29 | Posted by REDIAL"

So now new gay black men cannot join this site to vent after this horrific election and only the existing gay men can vent? Check your privilege!

Do whatever you want, Claudio/Deadman.

I now need to go and buy a gun to protect myself from racists and bigots like you.

#32 | Posted by darren_young at 2024-11-06 10:12 PM

oh good lord. As if it wasn't already insane enough.

"As if it wasn't already insane enough.
#33 | Posted by YAV"

Why is it only "insane" when gay black men want to protect their families? Just like LeBron James said, you don't know what it is like to be hunted by the police. What am I supposed to tell me trans-son now? Zer is crying with fear of being deported or put back into slavery along with rest of zer's friends. That is a real possibility now because racist white men and racist white women did not turn up to vote.

#27 Darren Young There were a lot of us white folks that voted for Harris. I'm 70 and I have never voted for Trump. I voted for Hillary in 2016, Biden in 2020 and Harris yesterday so did my husband. Now are you also mad at the Latino and black men that voted for Trump instead of Harris? They said it was economics.
