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.”

Better luck next time Bette. Kamala was as close to a downright moron as you can get.

Didn’t one of those ass hats say they would take cyanide on a live stream?

Mary is an alcoholic, I wish I had stock in the Brewster Cape Cod liquor store.
My child is sobbing because her rights as a woman may be taken away.

The “right” to kill your grandchild! That is what you are upset about?
In this line of work you have to be discreet... You don't want to put future business at risk. Or as I sometimes put it, "Their money is just as green, and spends the same. So I'll take their money." I just don't spend that money buying their product.
But it would be so much fun to cover the back of my vehicle with Trump 2024 just to get a rise out of these people. It would be interesting to see what kind of reaction I would get from JLC.
Haters gonna hate!
Oh, is that what she's speaking?
“This is why some of y’all states be getting hurricanes.”
Hey, she kin talk just like us all backward folk! She must be so smart.
GoPM to all those narcissists:
GTFOOMC
All these morons screaming about women’s rights being “taken away” are the same ones who think it’s cool to erase women’s rights by injecting cross-dressing men into women’s bathrooms, dressing rooms, beauty salons and sports teams. Make up your minds, byotches.
“... cross-dressing men ....” Those are some of the “women” whose “rights” these idiots are trying to protect.
They are all insane.
