Those supporting Vice President Kamala Harris did their best to get votes for their candidates, but the vice president fell short.

President-elect Donald Trump has been elected the 47th president of the United States, becoming the first person to win the election after defeat since former President Grover Cleveland.

However, ESPN pundit Stephen A. Smith wasn’t fond of the tactics of some of Harris’ supporters.

“Ultimately, celebrities, who are worth hundreds of millions, if not billions, who most American citizens think are incredibly disconnected from their lifestyle and their quality of life, shouldn’t get away with making them feel guilty about something else to do. then what their experience says is going on and what to do about it,” Smith said on a recent edition of his “Stephen A. Smith Show.”

He then played a clip of Oprah Winfrey saying that a Trump win could mean they would never vote again.

“This is the kind of thing that alienates an electorate, alienates a voter,” Smith said. “Because you’re trying to morally confiscate the freedom you tell them you have by letting them know you’re worthless unless you vote the way we say you should vote. Who will choose this in a general election? With an economy full of inflation, with more than twelve million people crossing the border, the value of their dollars is disappearing before our eyes.”

Smith then took issue with a clip of former first lady Michelle Obama saying that black men voting for Trump was a vote against “us.”

“If we don’t agree with you, are we against you?” Smith asked. “How do you think the men felt about that? So we have to do what you tell us to do; otherwise we’re against you? Did you think that worked? Do you know anything about most men? Do you think it does?” going to work?”

Smith predicted in September that Harris would win, but she fell well short of the 81 million votes President Biden received in 2020.

It is the first time that Trump has won the popular vote in his three election cycles.
