Bernie Sanders challenges Democratic leadership during Kamala Harris's farewell speech
Kamala Harris conceded defeat in her presidential campaign on November 6, delivering a hopeful farewell speech at Howard University. She encouraged supporters to continue fighting for change, despite the Democratic Party's loss in the election. Minutes before her speech, Senator Bernie Sanders criticized the Democratic leadership for failing to connect with working-class voters. He questioned whether the party would learn from its defeat, highlighting a growing divide within the party. Harris's team is already shifting blame to President Biden for not stepping aside sooner. However, many believe the party's issues run deeper, as Harris's speech reflected a disconnect with the electorate.
