Kamala Harris appears to be melting down. 

Actually, "appears" is the wrong word because she hasn't. Apparently, she isn't even talking to her supporters. The hangover from last night's binge drinking must be brutal. 

The democratic political class is incapable of talking to the public without their prescripted talking points. One of the factors behind their brutal losses last night. https://t.co/MTN7PKHTKC

Everybody is noting that she hasn't, apparently, called to concede the election nor spoken to the nation yet, and that is bad enough. But little noticed is the fact that she has exhibited tremendous disrespect for all the people who put in on the line for her and her party over the past few months and years. 

Kamala Harris didn’t care enough about Black people to show up and give a concession speech when they’d all gathered at Howard, her HBCU Alma Matter.

She gave them what Democrats have been giving them for decades.

In what was supposed to be a symbolic move, she held her "victory" party at Howard University, a historically black school that she attended. She clearly wanted to leverage the site for the message that America elected a black(ish) female to the presidency, breaking the so-called "glass ceiling."

Selfishly, she didn't want to face the crowd and face the music, never once thinking about the fact that she owed what little success she had to the people gathered. 

As with all elites, once the little people were no longer useful she treated them like dirt. They were supposed to be props, nothing more. 

Ironically, the site really was symbolic for reasons she didn't intend: Kamala treated her mostly black audience exactly as she thinks of them: people who only matter when they can help her and her elite class, not as individuals deserving dignity, respect, and gratitude. 

Whatever your politics, this is just rude and ungracious. Kamala Harris should have made an appearance and consoled the broken-hearted. No need to concede at that stage. Millions of supporters and thousands of loyal workers deserved a word of thanks. That's all. It costs nothing. pic.twitter.com/D7jQ4eRyQT

If Kamala didn't want to concede there and then she didn't have to. She could have come out and thanked everybody for their hard work and support, but she likely didn't give a damn because, in her eyes, they failed her. 

Kamala Harris leaving her supporters out in the cold last night is a free preview of Kammunism.

You were always cannon fodder and chattle to her.

This is how our elite sees all of us: as disposable drones whose role is nothing more than a worker bee. One is as good as another, meaning not much at all. We are all, in the end, deplorable. 

Minorities must always be treated with respect and kindness

Unless they vote against us. Then it's time to demonize and bully them! https://t.co/sMA2t4eJ74

From this attitude, much of what is wrong in America can be explained. The people who have been running things neither understand nor care about the people who do the actual work. 

I vehemently disagree with the people in that crowd who supported Kamala Harris, but they deserved better.
