Despite a slew of celebrity endorsements for Kamala Harris, Donald Trump has declared victory in the presidential election. His supporters are expectedly thrilled, but many who supported Harris (and who support rights for women and minorities) have spoken out against the election results.
“I hate yall bad,” Cardi B wrote on an Instagram Story that depicted her face as she listened to the results coming in. She also took aim at several southern states that swung towards Trump in a now-deleted post on X, saying, “This is why some of y’all states be getting hurricanes.”
Bette Midler shared a quote from H.L. Mencken about the choices political candidates must make, which concludes with “As democracy is perfected, the office represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. We move toward a lofty ideal. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart’s desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.”
Jamie Lee Curtis wrote in a lengthy reaction to Trump’s victory, “What it really means is that we wake up and fight. Fight for women and our children and their futures and fight against tyranny, one day at a time. One fight at a time. One protest at a time. That’s what it means to be an American.”
Mary Trump, Trump’s niece and an outspoken critic of his, wrote on X, “I am so deeply sorry. I thought better of us.”
Lili Reinhart shared, “I cannot fathom the feeling of the women who came forward about their sexual assault at the hands of Trump. Seeing millions of people vote for their abuser. My heart absolutely breaks for these women. I believe you, and I am so sorry.”
Christina Applegate was equally direct, writing on X, “Why? Give me your reasons why????? My child is sobbing because her rights as a woman may be taken away. Why? And if you disagree, please unfollow me.”
She later added, “Please unfollow me if you voted against female rights. Against disability rights. Yeah that. Unfollow me because what you did is unreal. Don’t want followers like this. So yeah. Done. Also after today I will be shutting down this fan account that I have had for so many years because this is sick.”
John Cusack tweeted before the race was called, acknowledging that even hope of a Harris victory wasn’t enough. “Harris may well come through Wisconsin Michigan and Pennsylvania — the fact that the country would choose to destroy itself by voting in a convicted felon rapist and Nazi is a sign of deep nihilism To put it mildly,” he wrote.
Rosanne Cash wrote on Threads, “I had an idea of America. I was wrong. But I still love my idea, and maybe I’m only wrong at this moment in history. I may not live long enough to see the full recovery but I’m determined my grandchildren will. Resist what is about to come. I’m with you.”
Wendell Pierce reflected on the future damage this election could have. “Elections have consequences,” he wrote on X. “The Supreme Court will be changed for a generation. I’ll never see a moderate court again in my lifetime. Alito and Thomas will step down and Trump will appoint 40 year old partisans to the bench. The damage he is about to inflict on our institutions the next 2 years will be irreparable.”
Are they really going to move out of the country this time?
We're WAITING
Where are all the evacuation planes landing at the Hollywood airport today that we were promised?
Thank God that these worthless pieces of human debris are not happy today...
Applegate is a idiot ,It’s the left that promotes trans, the left wants to erase your daughter.
I hope so. I see all these “celebrities” call Donald Trump a moron. That’s rich, coming from the party that believes men can get pregnant. The only morons I see are on the left.
They hate us? That hurts..........LOLOLOL
Obama can move out of DC now.
The evil puppet show is OVER.
Thank you God!
This is why I took TWO days off for the election.
Did anyone send Midler a case of Drano?
Should send these poor victims some Hemlock spears.
The hatred is strong with the hairy-chested, liberal princesses gone wild.
....maybe I’ve been living under a rock all these years, or maybe in a cave somewhere, but.....who is Christina Applegate and why should anybody care what she thinks or says...? seriously, I have no idea who she is......Jus’ askin’......
Thinking that now that we have all three branches of government, we can add people to the Supreme Court and end the filibuster - give the other side what they’ve been asking for as a sign of bipartisanship - what say you?
That’s going to leave a mark for sure. Maybe the 101st Airborne “Death from Above”.
right back at ya!
That’s the thing about celebrities - they aren’t usually celebrated for their intellects.
Abortion allows Rich White Women to feel Oppressed.
I’m relishing their misery, and given the opportunity would gloat to their faces.
