The Vice President of the United States of America, Kamala Harris has called former president Donald Trump to congratulate him on his victory at the 2024 presidential election.
According to one of her aides, democrat Harris discussed with Trump the importance of a peaceful transfer of power and being president for all Americans.
Jen O’Malley Dillon, who chaired Harris’ campaign, said in an email to campaign staff obtained by NBC News that Harris told Trump during the call that “she would work with President Biden to ensure a peaceful transfer of power, unlike what we saw in 2020.”
“She also made clear that she hopes he will be a President for all Americans,” she said. Trump campaign spokesman Steven Cheung said in a statement that, in their call, the president-elect “acknowledged Vice President Harris on her strength, professionalism, and tenacity throughout the campaign, and both leaders agreed on the importance of unifying the country.”
