Cardi B Writes Long, Thoughtful, Beautiful Message To Kamala Harris

Cardi B reacted with such righteous anger and disgust, as so many us have been, at convicted fraudster and adjudicated rapist Donald Trump winning the presidency. She blasted the President-Elect and all those who voted for him, largely against their interests.

But with some reflection she decided there was someone she’d rather speak to. Kamala Harris.

In a lengthy open letter to the Vice President, she wrote on her Instagram:

“To Vice President Kamala, no matter what they’ve said to bring you down or belittle your run for presidency they can never say you didn’t run your race with honesty and with integrity! You really put up a fight against all the odds that were already stacked against you! You never accepted defeat as an option which says so much about your strength and about your heart.”

It’s true, Kamala had just a few weeks to mount her campaign, and in that time she did so much to show how much better a president she would have been. Cardi continued by talking about what Kamala’s candidacy meant to her personally as a Black woman:

“You really wanted better for ALL of us! This may not mean much but I am so proud of you! No one has ever made me change my mind and you did! I never thought I would see the day that a woman of color would be running for the President of the United States, but you have shown me, showed my daughters and women across the country that anything is possible. Thank you for being an example, thank you for being empowered, thank you for being a real example of what the American dream should be!”

So moving. We wish this were a different letter. But this one is so beautiful.
