Let’s just say Election Day didn’t go so well for Kamala Harris.
Heading into Tuesday, Harris seemingly thought that she had this election in the bag. Unfortunately for her, she ended up being trounced by Donald Trump, not even winning the popular vote.
While everyone was focused on the race, the First Lady Jill Biden quietly cast her ballot. As she did so, she shocked everyone by wearing a GOP red-colored pantsuit.

From Fox News:
The Republican Party is synonymous with the color red, and the color will be used in on-screen maps to indicate which states support former President Trump. The first lady’s wardrobe selection quickly raised eyebrows.“Jill Biden is wearing the GOP’s shade of red to cast her vote. Joe Biden is skipping the Kamala Harris watch party. Do the math,” conservative influencer Ian Miles Cheong posted on X.
Are The Bidens ‘Angry’ At Harris?
Sky News host Gabriella Power speculated that Jill’s choice of clothing indicates that she and her husband Joe are still “angry” that he got kicked out of the race. It came days after Joe labeled all Donald Trump supporters “garbage” in a moment that was reminiscent of Hillary Clinton’s infamous “deplorables” moment from 2016. Harris immediately tried to distance herself from his comments, but the damage may already have been done.
“It make you wonder if these comments for the camera, are deliberate… because the Biden’s are so angry that he got kicked out of the race,” Power said.
Perhaps the Bidens are still bitter about Joe having to drop out of the race. Harris and her fellow Democrats spent years covering up for Joe’s apparent mental decline. They told the American people not to believe their eyes and ears when it came to Joe’s clear cognitive failings.
Then came Joe’s first and ultimately only debate against Trump. With Joe alone on the debate stage, Harris and his team could no longer hide his seeming cognitive decline, which was on full display to the world.
The Democrat establishment spent weeks pressuring Joe to drop out of the race. Joe held out as long as he could, but he finally gave in and dropped out. Within hours, Harris had been anointed as Joe’s replacement, and she eagerly took his place in the race. While Joe and Jill publicly supported her, it wouldn’t be surprising if behind the scenes, they viewed this as a slap in the face.
Jill’s Rumored Feud With Harris
It’s also been rumored for years that there’s no love lost between Jill and Harris. It’s alleged that Jill has never forgiven Harris for implying that Joe is racist during a 2020 primary debate.
“Go f**k yourself,” Jill reportedly vented at the time.
From Daily Mail:
Now, political insiders have told DailyMail.com that Democratic advisors are struggling to push past the powerful role that Jill Biden‘s loathing of Harris, 59, is playing in Joe‘s resistance to pass the mantle to his VP as pressure ratchets up for him to step down as presidential candidate and allow another Democrat tackle Donald Trump.According to one former Democrat operative in Jill’s circle, the women’s long-seated animosity is ‘one hundred per cent’ part of Jill’s resistance to having her 81-year-old husband step aside.
Perhaps Jill wearing red was one final dig at Harris on Election Day. In the end, the Bidens might be far happier that Harris lost this election than they would ever let on to the world!
Key Takeaways:
- Jill Biden raises eyebrows by wearing red to cast her vote on Election Day.
