A video of Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott lamenting the loss of Vice President Kamala Harris — and America’s treatment of black women in general — has gone viral.

In her remarks Wednesday, a day after Harris’ resounding defeat to former President Donald Trump, Scott spoke in highly personal terms about Harris’ loss and what she thought about the country.

He said he was “extremely disappointed” with the results and said there would be a second Trump term as president. On Election Day, Scott tweeted excitedly about making history by electing Harris.

Despite being the first Baltimore mayor to win re-election since 2004, Scott struck a more somber tone the following day.

“I really want to say this morning that as a man, but more importantly as a black man, that this country does not deserve black women or black people, but specifically black women,” Scott said.

He continued: “This morning I woke up and I just gave my wife a hug because I know how heavy this takes on black women. And they have carried and saved this country too many times and continue to be the most despised human beings on the planet. And that, frankly, disgusts me.

A tweet showing Scott’s remarks by @cbr_OLU – VOTE For Community, VOTE For The Babies, VOTE – had received 1.1 million views as of early Friday morning.

“Baltimore gave them a Real One,” wrote the X member who shared it.

A video posted on the mayor’s Instagram account had garnered more than 500,000 views.

On Tuesday, voters chose Trump, 78, who was convicted in May of 34 counts of falsifying business records, over Harris, the first Black and Asian woman to be elected vice president. She quickly became the choice of Democrats after President Joe Biden withdrew from the race following a shaky debate and endorsed her. Trump was elected despite long-standing questions about his racial attitudes and racist comments made by speakers at his closing rally in New York.

“I think about the world we’re going to bring our daughter into in a few months,” Scott said. “And I want the vice president to know that she and her team did everything right, the right way. But the sad reality is that this country is still mired in racism, sexism and misogyny.”

Scott seemed beside himself that voters chose Trump over Harris, despite what political observers called a strong debate and well-executed campaign.

“I am personally proud of her and I know so many others are the same. We appreciate her tenacity, her focus, her decency and the way she has conducted herself throughout this campaign. And I don’t want to hear anyone say that they should have done something different, that she should have run longer. The fact is, they did everything a campaign can do and more. But we, as a country, really have a lot of thinking to do, and that’s really what I want to say about this today.
