Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) called on Democrats to press ahead and take “opportunities to fight back” despite President-elect Trump’s triumph in the 2024 U.S. presidential election against Vice President Harris. “Right now, Donald Trump won an election, and the consequences will be real and devastating, but I’m reminding myself and you that on the road ahead, there will still be opportunities to fight back,” Warren said in a video released Wednesday.
“I can’t tell you that we will win all of those fights,” she added. “I can’t tell you that we will win most or even any of them. But when we arrive in each of those moments, you will face a choice to give up or to press forward.” Warren’s video comes shortly after the White House race was called for the Republican nominee who, so far, has carried six out of the seven battleground states, according to Decision Desk HQ’s projections.
Warren, who secured her reelection bid by beating Republican challenger John Deaton, said that the “far right” is banking on Democrats infighting to hinder their ability to bring “change.”
“They are counting on us to point fingers at each other and to lose trust in our ability to ever, ever make change. I absolutely refuse to give them that satisfaction. We will continue to fight for each other,” Warren said while citing the Republicans’ failure to repeal the Affordable Care Act (ACA) during Trump’s first term in the White House.
