Where is Kamala?

What is “laughing into thin air” mean? Do you think she’s up a mountain?

When did Trump make his losing speech last time?

It seems that for some reason people expect the Democrats to behave better than the Republicans while still voting for the Republicans.

Another climate change whack job. At least Trump knows the score.

Actually, no.

Where is Joe? He is current President, not Kamala. He should be doing the peaceful transfer of power, not her.

Unless he is incapacitated?

She's still doing her concession speech quicker than Trump 2020. We're still waiting for that one

Bush v Gore also happened. In fairness to Al Gore, he had 266 electoral college votes, so it was a lot tighter than either Trump's loss to Biden or Harris's even more emphatic loss to Trump. But contesting election results isn't just a Trump thing.

She lost as she campaigned - badly.

The excuse seems emblematic of her campaign. It’s hard to imagine a more technocratic US machine politics explanation for gracelessly failing to address your supporters on election night than “oh we didn’t have the speech notes fine tuned yet”.

‘A Harris aide says Harris’ team spent very little time working on a concession or victory speech & instead spent most of their time creating a speech that would tell people to “hold on” because they expected the race results to be uncertain at this time in the week.’

There really is no hypocrisy, quite so unaware of itself, as right wing hypocrisy.
It's so astonishing to witness that it's almost a thing of beauty, an art form.

@Nanny0gg 5:30am isn’t when every vote was counted… they are still counting and likely will be for days. 5:30AM is when it was considered a done deal and news decision desks called the election for trump. This is still a “projected” win.

Other comparisons are available!

Just about every losing candidate has made a speech much earlier on. So of course it's noticeable when someone departs from the norm.

Lots of the people who voted for her are likely devastated, it's a shame she couldn't offer any words.

They knew what way the wind was blowing just after midnight. So that’s what I meant by last night/early this morning.

Stop being pedantic

Funny it was old Trumpy who, after one debate where she wiped the floor with him, refused to engage in any more debates..
Well done Trump the yanks would prefer a sexual predator in the whitehouse rather than an intelligent woman. Says a lot..

They don't have to wait till every result is in. They can concede as soon as it's a done deal

I'm sorry, but however devastated, that is no way to behave

Heads of State have many devasting events to deal with - they have to get on with it

It’s because she’s pathetic. Never stood a chance. Shes probably laughing into thin air somewhere

How on earth could she have done the speech last night? The result wasn’t in until until around 5:30AM eastern time.

Maybe she, like the rest of the world is absolutely appalled and speechless

The abuse she's getting off some of the Ultra MAGA crowd is disgusting I wonder if it would be any different had trump defeated a male candidate.

It's quite sad because without women they would not be here to even cast their vote,no life and no democracy is possible without women.they might not like her but at least they can do is show her some respect.

She called a while ago to congratulate and talk about a peaceful transition, something Trump wouldn't know about.

To be fair this was so decisive there's no chance.

Trust me both sides have a ton of expensive lawyers on call with the sole aim of trying to find loopholes in the event they lose. This loss was so bad I don't even think she can try.

Her results was worse than Biden and even though she won states like Illinois and NY she won with fewer votes than previous democratic candidates in solid blue states.

Anyway she has called him to concede.

She must feeling dreadful. Imagine knowing that your own failure would have such disastrous consequences for your country and for the world. Must be very difficult to face people knowing that you were their only hope.

She has.

What she isn't doing is shouting about a fixed election, getting democrats to storm the Capitol and thinking it's perfectly reasonable for her vice president to be lynched by a mob. Neither, as far as I am aware, is she ringing election officials and asking them to "find a few votes" or stashing official documents marked secret into boxes to store in her bathroom. She probably is having a lie down in a darkened room trying to come to terms with the fact that the world is a much more dangerous place than it was yesterday.

She called to concede and should speak to her supporters at howard uni soon.

She should have spoke last night but chose not to. Bad decision. But I’m guessing she was waiting to see if she would win the popular vote at least. Now that’s unlikely, so she’s finally throwing in the towel.

But hoping she can make a gracious exit and maybe start the conversation about how the dems need to do better.
