Kamala Harris' loss in the US presidential election has come as a surprise for the Democratic Party. While the race was always close as per the poll, the election day results showed that Donald Trump and the GOP have made inroads in several Democrat strongholds came as a surprise for many. As the results sunk in on Wednesday morning, Democrat Senator Bernie Sanders reacted to his party's debacle.Sanders, who won the Senate race from Vermont with a decisive majority even as the Blue Party failed to retain control of the Senate, released a statement on social media reacting to the shock results. He blamed the Democratic party for abandoning the working class people, first the white working class, followed by the Blacks and the Latinos. "It should come as no great surprise that a Democratic Party which has abandoned working class people would find that the working class has abandoned them," Senator Sanders said in the statement. "First, it was the white working class, and now it is Latino and Black workers as well. "While the Democratic leadership defends the status quo, the American people are angry and want change. And they’re right."

Sanders, despite his open criticism of the Biden-Harris administration over their continued support for Israel in the war on Gaza, endorsed Kamala Harris at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago in August. In his statement, he again brought up the issue of the Palestinian people explaining that the Biden-Harris administration ignored the opposition to the war by majority of the Americans and continued their support. "Today, despite strong opposition from a majority of Americans, we continue to spend billions funding the extremist Netanyahu government’s all-out war against the Palestinian people, which has led to the horrific humanitarian disaster of mass malnutrition and the starvation of thousands of children," Sanders said.Also read: "Will the big money interests and well-paid consultants who control the Democratic Party learn any real lessons from this disastrous campaign? " he continued. "Will they understand the pain and political alienation that tens of millions of Americans are experiencing? Do they have any ideas as to how we can take on the increasingly powerful Oligarchy, which has so much economic and political power? Probably not."
