After investing so much energy, emotions and support in the elections, women of all cultures and races have gone to social media posting statements, like “I guess America doesn’t care for my rights.” Many minorities question the morality of majority Americans who voted for the former president allegedly charged with criminal cases, including felonies. One of those indictments has now led to the first criminal conviction of a former president… the same person who has allegedly vowed to be a dictator, did nothing to protect the U. S. Capitol, his former vice president and congresspeople during the January 6, 2021 riots. Many people feel that he espouses hate and his followers support sexism, racism, discrimination, homophobia and systematic oppression.
Supporters of the Kamala D. Harris and Tim Walz campaign are shocked in awe over the recent election results for U. S. Presidency and Vice Presidency.
Electoral results were 295 for Donald Trump/James David (JD) Vance, and 226 for Kamala Harris/Tim Walz.
The Trump/Vance ticket received 73,455,642 popular votes (50.7%).
The Harris/Walz ticket received 69,114,242 popular votes (47.7%).
Still, Green Party’s Jill Stein/Butch Ware ticket received 660,188 votes (0.5%); Independent Robert Kennedy, Jr./Nicole Shanahan ticket received 638,087 votes (0.4%); and Libertarian Party’s Chase Oliver/Mike ter Maat ticket received 588,212 votes (0.4%).
Some reports state that the voter turnout represented 34% men, 37% white women, 58% Black men, 7% Black women, 6% Latino men, and 6% Latina women.

- 59% for Trump/Vance

Although Trump has denied being the author or supporter of the “Project 2025” manifesto, many Americans are wondering and are fearful of how that document and Trump’s authority will affect a future America. Will there be mass changes detrimental to women and minorities?
While Harris congratulated Trump and conceded before an emotional crowd of supporters, she committed to a peaceful transfer of power. She delivered a heartfelt concession speech at her alma mater, Howard University in Washington, DC, urging her supporters to respect the election results. “My heart is full today… full of gratitude for the trust you have placed in me, full of love for our country, and full of resolve,” she said. Harris stated that the “light of America’s promise will always burn bright.” “When we fight, we win, but sometimes the fight takes a while,” Harris stated.
Trump has been charged with 88 criminal offenses in four criminal cases. Charges against Trump include: 1) Conspiracy to defraud the United States; 2) conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding; 3) obstruction of, and attempt to obstruct, an official proceeding; and 4) conspiracy against rights, which is a federal crime that occurs when two or more people conspire to violate another person’s rights. Earlier this year, the U. S. Supreme Court Justices, though divided, ruled that Trump had some immunity from prosecution, majority ruling that former presidents can never be prosecuted for actions relating to the core powers of their office, and that there is at least a presumption that they have immunity for their official acts more broadly. Regardless, most people predict that Trump’s first order of business as the 47th U. S. President will be to pardon and exonerate himself from any and all charges and include his eighteen co-defendants. The other eighteen include: Trump lawyers Rudy Giuliani, John Eastman, Kenneth Chesebro, Jenna Ellis and Sidney Powell; former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows; former Department of Justice official Jeffrey Clark; those who spoke at hearings designed to convince Georgia lawmakers to change the election results, such as attorney Ray Smith; several so-called artificial electors, who signed certificates saying Trump won Georgia and that they were official electors, including former Georgia Republican Party Chair David Shafer; three individuals accused of pressuring Fulton County election worker Ruby Freeman to falsely admit to committing election fraud, including Trevian Kutti, a Chicago-based publicist who has worked for R. Kelly and Kanye West.
