Sports pundit Dan Le Batard expressed disappointment over the presidential election results. Fox News projected that former President Donald Trump defeated Vice President Kamala Harris.
On Wednesday morning, Le Batard analyzed Harris's loss. "If I am to discuss what people are here today for because they want liberal tears, and in some ways I do weep for my country liberally," he stated on "The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz." He added, "America has spoken, and America has spoken resoundingly that what they want representing our country in office is that."
He elaborated on America’s choice. "Whether you want to say, ‘hate wins’ or whether you want to say, ‘the White man’s got a dynasty.’ There was that one loss, the Washington Generals/Barack Obama, put on them one time. But they are the Harlem Globetrotters. They do not give up the power."
Le Batard described the current political landscape as a dynasty. "It’s a dynasty that will stay in power at least four more years because people have spoken and men have spoken. ‘You will not take this power from us. We will overtake the woman’s body and we’ll be a threat to minorities and others.’"
He voiced concern about those who share this view. If they see that as a preference, he views them as a "threat." His words painted a dire picture of what America has chosen.
"What America has decided today is that it’s OK with a king. It’s OK with a religious king," he declared. He criticized the moral implications of this choice, saying, "No matter what he stuffs in the Bible as a disguise that’s criminal, immoral… that wins today."
"If I view that as a threat, and then you view that as your preference, you become a threat. That's the America that I live in."

Despite the bleak outlook, Le Batard remained resolute. "And I can’t help but feel like I will keep fighting for these things, even if they lose and even if it becomes more threatening now in America than it was yesterday." He emphasized the importance of being a voice against this shift.
Trump secured a significant victory in Florida, gaining nearly 300 electoral votes by Thursday morning. He had over 1.5 million more votes than Harris in the state, which holds 30 electoral votes.
