Harris planned a party at her alma mater on Election Night.
It ended in tears.
"Kamala Harris’s dream of becoming the first woman to be elected US president quickly turned into a nightmare for the crowd that gathered at Howard University late Tuesday evening.
The tears definitely flowed on the Yard outside Frederick Douglass Hall as the night grew long and Harris campaign adviser Cedric Richmond told the crowd that the vice president wouldn’t speak to them. Richmond vowed that the campaign would fight “overnight,” but Trump’s lead in Pennsylvania and other states made the realities clear.
Then reality set in, as it became clear that Virginia was unexpectedly close, the Iowa Selzer poll anomaly had not been born out, and the campaign was going to be in the fight of its life as Harris underperformed Joe Biden’s 2020 numbers across the nation.
As the night dragged on, the “Blue Wall” in the Rust Belt appeared to be showing cracks, while Pennsylvania crept further and further out of reach. The southwest was in an equally dismal state for the Democrats.
The mood quickly soured, and people began pouring out. The weather changed, too; a warm evening suddenly became breezy and chilly, and departures accelerated."

Biden Looks The Happiest He’s Ever Been After Kamala’s Crushing Defeat
"In the wake of Kamala Harris’s crushing defeat to Donald Trump, President Joe Biden addressed the election results Thursday in a
Biden has not seemed this happy and this coherent since the early days of his presidency. I think he’s feeling an incredible amount of schadenfreude, the icky yet pleasurable feeling you get when you witness a rival’s downfall, and a sense of accomplishment for being the only Democrat to have ever defeated Trump."

Former DNC Official Proposes Plan
to Install Kamala Harris As President
"Simmons believes Joe Biden should fulfill a campaign promise to be a "transitional figure" by resigning from the presidency and allowing Kamala Harris to be the nation's first female president.Why? Three reasons.
---Essentially, it would give Harris a "chance" to find out what it's like to be president. As if the role of the leader of the Free World is some sort of charity operation.
---It would make it easier for the next woman to run for president, as she would not have to bear the weight of breaking the glass ceiling. Which is false because she would still have to be the first to actually win a presidential election.
---It would spare Kamala the ignominy of having to certify the election she just lost. Just as Al Gore (2001) and Richard Nixon (1961) did.
"It would absolve her of being able to - from having to oversee the January 6 transition, right, of her own defeat," he explained. "And it would make sure that - it would dominate the news at a point where Democrats have to learn drama and transparency and doing things that the public want to see is a time - this is the moment for us to change the entire perspective of how Democrats operate."

Fetterman Slams Nancy Pelosi for ‘Blaming Biden’
After Kamala’s Defeat: ‘You Got What You Wanted’
"Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) slammed Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) for “blaming” President Joe Biden for Vice President Kamala Harris’s election loss, noting that she got what she wanted when Biden dropped out of the race.In an interview with Politico, Fetterman pointed out that Pelosi, 84, could not “have it both ways,” adding that she and others within the Democrat Party had got what they wanted when Biden dropped out of the presidential race after his disastrous performance at the presidential debate on June 27. “People like [Nancy] Pelosi, she really tried to — what’s the word I’m looking for? — she embraced this ‘she’s the godmother, she’s the enforcer,” Fetterman told the outlet. “And now she’s blaming Biden. Well, you can’t have it both ways. You got what you wanted, and now you’re still blaming Biden.”

Harris camp’s own polling never showed VP leading Trump, team ‘surprised’ by reports showing her ahead: top adviser
"Vice President Kamala Harris’ advisers whinged in an interview released Tuesday that they were “surprised” to see public polling showing her ahead of now-President-elect Donald Trump in September and October of the election — because internal campaign surveys were always showing her way behind.
“We were behind. I mean, I think it surprised people because there were these public polls that came out in late September, early October, showing us with leads that we never saw,” David Plouffe, Harris’ senior campaign adviser, revealed on “Pod Save America.”
They admitted to having difficulty coming up with cohesive messaging."
