Joy Reid casts blame for Trump win on White women

Joy Reid on MSNBC essentially attributed Harris' loss in North Carolina to White women.

Kamala Harris received support from Black voters, but White women did not, according to Reid's statement.

Jones stated, "I am contemplating the individuals who are not part of any elite group and are experiencing pain tonight. There are African-American women who have experienced being belittled and having their economic aspirations dashed, yet they continue to strive for greatness. Despite their efforts, they are trading in their hope for hurt over the past few months."

""Once again, they're facing rejection as they hope that one of their own could be seen as worthy," Jones continued."
