“Kamala Harris is an extraordinary partner and public servant.
She ran an inspiring campaign and everyone got to see something I respect so much in her – her character.
She gave her whole heart to the effort and she and her entire team should be proud of the campaign they ran
“The struggle for the soul of America since our very founding has always been ongoing.
Campaigns are contests of competing visions. And we accept the choice the country made.
You can’t love your country only when you win.
“Much of the work we’ve done is already being felt by the American people, but the vast majority of it will be felt over the next ten years.
It’s truly historic.
We are leaving behind the strongest economy in the world.
Together, we have changed America for the better.
“To our incredible staff, supporters, Cabinet members, and people who’ve been hanging out with me for the last four years – thank you.
I know it’s a difficult time. I hear you. I see you.
But don’t forget all that we’ve accomplished.”
Yesterday, I spoke with President-elect Trump to congratulate him on his victory. And I assured him that I would direct my entire Administration to work with his team to ensure a peaceful and orderly transition.
That’s what the American people deserve.
