The internet has become a boundless stage for the discourse surrounding political events and figures, with Kamala Harris' concession in the 2024 Presidential Elections occupying ample space online.
When a prominent public official, such as a candidate for high office, experiences a notable setback like an electoral defeat, the online response can be swift and multifaceted.
As people process the implications of a political loss, some may turn to humor as a means of coping and contextualizing the event. Clever memes, witty one-liners, and satirical takes can allow individuals to express their perspectives in an engaging, accessible manner.
X has held space for users throughout the USA and even globally, to express their anguish, joy, and relief upon this monumental political event. Following is a curated list of some of the funniest memes on Harris' loss we've seen to date - a little something for everyone.
Kamala Harris' electoral loss gave us 20 hilarious memes
1) Biden did whaaat
If you didn't already know, Biden took to calling Trump supporters 'garbage' during a recent campaign call, leading to the internet going bonkers with memes and viral tweets. This tweet alludes to that political maneuver resulting in Harris' not-so-great results.
2) Mourning the loss (of memes)
Apart from mourning the loss of a presidential candidate who cared about humanitarian policies, citizens mourned the lost opportunity to post the hilarious 'Kamala WON! and Trump LOST!' memes that they'd been curating carefully. 2028 it is.
3) McDonald's for real
For context, Harris claimed to have had her humble roots laid (or buried) in an old McDonald's that she claimed to have once worked at. Trump suspected this to be a mere political move and not necessarily the truth, and consequently, he cosplayed as an employee of the fast food chain as part of his campaign.
4) Reminiscing already?
Netizens seem to be preemptively nostalgic for the meme frenzy during these last few stressful election days.
5) Why Megan??
People online seem to be quite disappointed by Harris' choice of choosing Megan Thee Stallion to perform at her campaign rally - with some users blaming this performance for Texas' majority votes of the Republican party. X account @/unpopularalt amongst others did however point out,
Texas been red.. this hate is CRAZY
6) Kamala vs Kamala
Popular American actress, Maya Rudolph made an appearance on SNL, alongside Harris, primarily due to their uncanny resemblance. This picture of the duo looking oh-so identical went viral, and we get it!
7) Winning the game world, at least
If the landscape of America remained red at the end of this election season, citizens gathered online to foster a community of their own, with this blue little town named, 'Willow Creek'.
8) Oh well
9) Cardi B bring a notepad!
X users were baffled by the lack of etiquette followed by these two popstars; Cardi B pulled out her phone to read off of, being seen as unprofessional and unprepared.
10) A long week on Twitter
Now that Grammy nominations are due....buckle up netizens! It's going to be a long many hours of us glued to our screens.
11) Elon Musk VS Cardi B and Megan
Yeah, having Elon as a loyal supporter did bring in some loyal techies and capitalistic men to the red if they weren't already there with their Teslas.
12) Does nobody like Megan?
People have seen this film before, and no, they didn't like the ending then either. I guess The Stallion's concert turnout should've been a good indicator of her popularity.
13) IYKYK
14) Joe Biden please resign
I guess one way remains... will Biden take the leap? (out of the White House)
15) Not the weave!
16) The newest favorite internet boy
Apart from mourning the loss of Harris, netizens have been quite invested in the trajectory of this Red, White, and Royal Blue star.
17) Be Braver Kamala
Some Americans thought that Harris may have taken the softer route, and were confident that she shouldn't have.
18) BYE GIRL
Make up your mind then?
19) Squirrel or bad politics?
Was it the squirrel or the Trump cap or the memes or Cardi B or maybe Musk had something to do with it? Maybe we need to get off the internet. Either way, laugh before you leave!
