In a stunning revelation that completely encapsulates the stupidity of the Harris-Walz battle, yet her concession phone to President Trump was plagued by complex troubles.  ,

The terrible details are laid out in Chris Whipple’s future book” Unknown: How Trump Beat Biden, Harris, and the Conflict in the Wildest Campaign in History”, and they’re exactly what you’d expect from a strategy that spent over a billion dollars to reduce every single swing state.
Following her crushing defeat, Harris was forced to do something she perhaps not imagined: visit Donald Trump to accept.
According to a statement from the Daily Mail, which received an advance copy of the book, Harris’s team don’t actually properly attach the phone call. Her plan Chief of Staff Sheila Nix and White House Chief of Staff Lorraine Voles were reduced to practically pressing two devices up to make the relationship work. You didn’t make this thing up, people.
‘ Nix called the president-elect on her body phone- but for some reason don’t connect the contact with the vice president’s phone,’ Whipple wrote.’ So Voles called Harris on hers- and she and Nix pressed the phones together.’
Voles then informed Trump: ‘ The vice president is on the line.’
‘ Harris respectfully addressed the man she’d called a fascist and an existential threat to democracy,’ Whipple continued.
The vice president, who had been thrust to the top of the Democratic ticket in late July,’ felt the weight of the crushing defeat,’ he described.

” I’m calling to concede. It was a fair election. The peaceful transfer of power is important. It’s important to the country”, Harris said during the call.
” I hope you’re a president for all Americans”, she said next.

The irony is thick enough to cut with a knife. This is the same Kamala Harris who spent years calling Trump a “fascist” and an “existential threat to democracy”. But when the American people rejected her radical agenda, she had no choice but to acknowledge the legitimacy of Trump’s victory.
Trump, showing his characteristic flair for the unexpected, responded with surprising cordiality.
But it’s how Trump reacted to Harris ‘ concession that raised eyebrows.
‘ If Trump detected any edge to that remark he didn’t show it. In fact, the president-elect was weirdly cordial and complimentary- bantering as though he were on the golf course,’ Whipple wrote.
Trump told Harris that she was ‘ great.’
“You’re a tough cookie”, Trump told her. ” You were really great. And that Doug — what a character! I love that guy”.

Of course, the Harris team couldn’t accept Trump’s gracious response at face value. One aide, displaying the paranoia typical of the Democratic establishment, complained,” Honestly, I felt like, what is this? It’s so manipulative. He’s a sociopath”.
The contrast couldn’t be clearer. While Trump’s opponents have spent years painting him as a threat to democracy, he demonstrated remarkable grace in victory. Meanwhile, Kamala’s staff continued their baseless attacks even as their boss was forced to acknowledge the legitimate results of the election.
I wish there was a recording of that call. I’d make it my ringtone.  ,
