Andy Cohen has a positive post-election message we all need to hear: 'we will persist'
While many of us are still busy licking our wounds after watching Vice President Kamala Harris lose to a convicted felon, Bravo exec Andy Cohen is reminding everyone that we must persist.On Wednesday morning, shortly after Donald Trump officially became the next president of the United States, the 56-year-old Watch What Happens Live host posted an inspirational video on Instagram, and its exactly what we need to hear right now.Cohen who is a father to five-year-old Benjamin and two-year-old Lucy asked his son what he thought about the election results in a video he captioned God Bless America!Cohen asked, So, Ben, whats your take on the election? What do you think happened?Donald Duck won, Benjamin answered.Although Cohen appeared teary-eyed in the video, he still expressed his American pride and desire to keep working for a better tomorrow. We love our country, we do. We will persist, we will move forward, he said.See on InstagramWhile most people in the comments thanked Cohen for his remarks or echoed the same sentiment, one person was critical of celebrity endorsements for political office, The Independent reports.Harris was endorsed by a slew of high-profile celebrities like Taylor Swift, Beyonc, Ricky Martin, Jennifer Anniston, John Legend, and Cohen himself.Im impressed with this post Andy, its gracious and Im glad we agree we all love our country, the commenter wrote.But the celebs all endorsing her was not the flex you think it was. Americans are tired of the liberal extremism. I hope we can all move on together and find some unity somewhere. Its exhausting being this divided.Not to be deterred, the Real Housewives executive producer clapped back, writing that being an American means you can endorse any candidate.This is America, he responded. If celebs want to express themselves they should be allowed to like everyone else. Standing up for what you believe in is not a flex, it is AMERICAN.See on InstagramCohen has been vocal about his support for Harris, including posting an endorsement alongside a photo of him wearing a Kamala for President T-shirt while standing next to the vice president and making an I voted post with a pic of himself and his daughter Lucy captioned, I voted for Her, for her. While he may not have gotten the outcome that he had hoped for for his daughter, his message to his followers is powerful.We will persist!
