Kamala Harris' running mate Tim Walz's first reaction to the dismal defeat in the US election was caught on camera as he broke down the moment Kamala Harris took his name in her concession speech yesterday. "Thank you Vice President
@KamalaHarris for putting your faith in me, and selecting me as your running mate. Campaigning at your side was the honor and privilege of my life," the Minnesota Governor posted earlier but was not seen since. More embarrassing defeat came today as Donald Trump won in Minnesota county where Tim Walz started his political career. The overall presidential vote in Minnesota, however, went to Harris and Walz.
The silence from the Dems for the entire Wednesday morning was questioned by the Republicans as they asked what took Kamala Harris so long (4 PM ET) to give her concession speech.
Kamala Harris spoke at Howard University, her alma mater which was supposed to burst into celebrations on Election Night as the Harris camp was expecting victory. But with the results being called in one by one, the mood became glum at Harris HQ and Harris' Election Night speech was cancelled.
In her concession speech, as Harris spoke about not giving up and taking the further and waiting for its outcome, Tim Walz among the audience did not try to hide his tears and heartbreak. He put his hand on his heart as Kamala Harris took his name and Harris husband Doug Emhoff turned towards him clapping. Walz's wife Gwen and daughter Hope. They were all wearing sunglasses.
Kamala Harris' step daughter Ella Emhoff was also seen breaking into tears.
"Tim Walz crying at Kamala's speech may be the most pathetic thing I've seen in this election," one X user wrote.
"[Tim] Walz is crying, man we really dodged a bullet with this one. This is incredibly unsettling," another wrote.
Tim Walz did not speak at the event. Outgoing President Joe Biden and his wife Dr Jill Biden were not present there.
