Despite the Democrats losing the popular vote in the election to the Republicans for the first time since 2004 - and by more than five million votes - many pro-Kamala Harris social media users aimed their frustrations at pro-Palestine voters, specifically Arabs and Muslims, on Wednesday.

Even if Harris had managed to win Michigan in the electoral college, which is home to a significant Muslim and Arab voting bloc, she would have still lost the election.

"Asian, Black, Hispanic and white voters all moved towards Trump. “Harris only increased her vote share among the over-65s and with white college-educated women,” the FT report said.

One X account user posted: “Fuck Gaza at this point! And I mean that from the bottom of my ass! They at harris rally screaming every time she speak and never at a trump rally! Good! Let Israel run wild on them.”

    Blue conservatives are desperate to blame their failures on something or someone else. They don’t want to change, even if the future of the country depends on it. They prefer trump being president to changing.

    I’m sad to see this, because they shouldn’t be. It’s the 20 million people who voted 4 years ago who didn’t this time around. They didn’t vote at all, regardless of president, so there’s really no specific group to blame.

    You can’t blame the Harris campaign for not getting voters to vote for local elections. Ranked choice initiatives didn’t pass, because people didn’t vote for them. Republicans got Senate because people didn’t vote against them. No one had to vote for president, but they surely could have voted at all.
