A new book, to be published on Tuesday, has now revealed the phone call between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump on election night when Kamala Harris called him to concede the election. Both of them let go of their acrimonious election battle and expressed warmth as Trump called Kamala Harris a "tough cookie" and congratulated her on running a great campaign.
“I’m calling to concede. It was a fair election. The peaceful transfer of power is important. It’s important to the country,” Harris reportedly told Trump on the phone the day after the election, according to author Chris Whipple‘s new book “Uncharted: How Trump Beat Biden, Harris, and the Odds in the Wildest Campaign in History.”
The book says Kamala Harris punched in a jibe as she said: "I hope you're president for all Americans."
Trump took that comment lightly and did not snap back but praised Harris for her fight despite her late entry in the campaign. “You’re a tough cookie. You were really great. And that Doug — what a character! I love that guy,” Trump told about her husband Doug.
After the content of the call became known to Kamala Harris's aides, they thought Trump was a sociopath as he was extremely cordial unlike what he said about Kamala Harris during the campaign.
One of Harris' aides, the book says, found this 'odd and inappropriate. "I was like, what?' she recalled. 'Honestly, I felt like, what is this? It's so manipulative. He's a sociopath."
Harris’ campaign Chief of Staff Sheila Nix and her White House Chief of Staff Lorraine Voles set up the call from Harris’ Naval Observatory home in Washington, DC — but when she phoned Trump, the calls wouldn’t merge with Harris’ phone. Instead, the Voles called Harris from her phone, and she and Nix “pressed the phones together,” Whipple wrote. As Harris heard Trump’s voice come through, she “felt the weight of the crushing defeat,” according to Whipple.
