Jen Psaki Rants, Attacks Trump After His Historic Victory

Former Biden White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki, now a host on MSNBC, launched into an emotional tirade targeting former President Trump after he won the 2024 election on Tuesday night.

Psaki served as White House deputy press secretary under former President Barack Obama, later serving as White House deputy communications director, spokesperson for the Obama State Department, and White House communications director for Obama before her stint with Biden; she served as a political contributor for CNN following that. then joined MSNBC.

After acknowledging Trump’s victory, she began, “And for so many of you watching right now, that news is, to say the least, a lot to digest; I understand that personally.”

Then she launched into her diatribe, saying:

After he lost four years ago, he refused to accept the outcome and incited a violent insurrection in our nation’s capital. He’s campaigned while facing criminal indictments related to his efforts to overturn the 2020 results, and he’s run as a convicted felon. During his campaign he has also promised to essentially be an authoritarian leader; to use power like no American president ever has before and wield that power to go after his political enemies. This is a man who has also bragged about overturning Roe v. Wade and stripping away women’s bodily autonomy. He’s promised to conduct mass deportations, to crack down on the rights of millions of Americans.

“Donald Trump is an anti-democratic force,” she pronounced, later arguing that those opposed to Trump represented democracy: “In this moment, it’s also important to remember that our democracy is not built around one person or one job, and I have every confidence that pro-democracy forces in this country will continue to stand up and make their voices heard. That’s what we saw after 2016 as well.”

“I wish I had better news for my daughter later this morning,” she said. “I wish I could have called her and told her that the first woman president had just been elected. I wish that. I won’t be able to do that.”

She then issued her call to arms, insinuating her opposition was not a force for good: “But what I can do, what I can tell my daughter and what I will tell my daughter is that our roles as American citizens have never been more important than they are right now. I can tell her that there are still lots of good forces out there, forces for good in this country, and that they are going to be getting to work.”

Fibis I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
