One woman even had a meltdown in her car while on her way to get her medications. She said:

"I was just walking down the street to go get my medication coz I'm out and I need it for today and I saw a woman walking her two kids and she had this look on her face... And I looked at her and we made eye contact and we kinda nodded... Like we were both... Just... Devastated"

A Kamala Harris supporter even shaved her head on camera while looking teary-eyed and told viewers that she was doing this to protest Trump's win and fight patriarchy.

Another supporter expressed that he is 'disgusted' not only by Trump's win but also by Elon Musk, who was pivotal in Trump securing the win. In a TikTok video, he said:

“I’m disgusted enough to delete my X account... I wanna take this moment to congratulate those of you who voted for Donald Trump, which was the overwhelming majority of Americans. You chose to vote for a dictatorship. And that is what you will get.”
