Kamala Harris Relates to Feeling 'Pissed,' 'Depressed,' and 'Angry' at Trump's Presidency

Former Vice President Kamala Harris expressed solidarity with supporters feeling frustrated and angry about the current political climate, sharing her own experiences of feeling "pissed," "depressed," and "angry." During a campaign stop in New Hampshire to support Senate hopeful Rep. Chris Pappas, Harris described a collective sense of despondency among those who oppose President Trump's administration.

"So for the last year and a half, we have been pissed," Harris told a room of volunteers, her remarks punctuated by laughter. "We’ve been depressed and angry. We’ve been frustrated. We’ve been feeling alone, hopeless, powerless."

She continued, recounting that many have engaged in passionate, one-sided conversations with their televisions. "We’ve gone through the last year and a half — many of us, whether we admit it or not, have been saying things to the television that we would not say where we pray. Some of us have been throwing things."

Harris, who lost the 2024 presidential election to Trump, made the remarks without explicitly naming the president but alluded to his administration as "the most callous, corrupt and incompetent presidential administration we have ever witnessed."

Drawing parallels to historical moments, she stated, "The founders imagined a moment like this. They imagined a moment that there would be a tyrant in office… They imagined a moment that we would create for the people, for the people to speak and use their power to put in place the checks and balances that the people so rightly deserve. And this is that moment."

Her visit to New Hampshire also included appearances with gubernatorial hopeful Cinde Warmington and congressional contender Stefany Shaheen. The swing through the Granite State is part of a broader effort by Harris to campaign in key states, with planned stops in Wisconsin and Georgia following her visits to Nevada and Mississippi.

After her remarks, Harris was seen serving drinks at Feathered Friend Brewing in Concord, New Hampshire, and later recorded an episode of the "Reproductive Freedom for All" podcast. She reiterated her message of transforming "anger into action," emphasizing the power of the people to enact change.

Harris is currently considered a leading contender for the 2028 Democratic presidential nomination, according to an aggregate of recent polls. Meanwhile, the race for New Hampshire's Senate seat, featuring Pappas and Republican John Sununu, is projected to be competitive, with Pappas holding a slight edge in most polls.
