Geraldo Rivera, a longtime television journalist and pundit, has chosen a side in the upcoming presidential election despite not falling in line with his political party. Taking to X, formerly Twitter, Geraldo Rivera openly endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris while taking aim at former president Donald Trump and referring to him as a “Sore Loser.”

Geraldo Rivera, 81, who currently works as a correspondent for NewsNation, took to X on Monday (October 13) to deliver a scathing rebuke of Donald Trump while highlighting his support for Vice President Kamala Harris. In his reply, Rivera did not mince words and made certain to lay out why he decided to vote against his party in this election cycle.

From X:

The last time President Trump and I spoke was Friday, November 13, 2020, when he called me at home. It was ten days after his narrow lost to Joe Biden. He was calling to get my take on the controversies surrounding the election, which appeared to have been decided by a handful of votes in several states. I asked him what he would do if the vote count remained against him. As I reported on Fox News that same morning, Friday the 13th, he told me he was a reasonable man and would do the right thing if that time came.

It never did. Instead, President Trump embarked on an increasingly menacing campaign to discredit the 2020 election. With a motley supporting cast of increasingly fringe characters, he careened from one bizarre theory to the next, offering no meaningful proof, that he had been robbed by the Democrats.

None exists. If you are a Republican, Donald Trump has made a liar of you. He has coaxed and intimidated tens of millions into pretending he was reelected in 2020, and that the election was stolen.

In furtherance of that Big Lie, on January 6, 2021, Trump incited and unleashed the violent attack on the center of democracy, the U.S. Capitol for which he was Impeached. As his followers trashed that sacred space, he was on the phone urging Vice President Mike Pence essentially to overturn the will of the American people. Pence refused to put Trump ahead of the Constitution. Trump stabbed the Constitution in the back.

Rivera’s lengthy post goes on to add that anyone supporting Trump’s assertion that the 2020 election was stolen from him are “adopting his big lie about the stolen election makes you a liar” and he clarified the reason he’s voting for Harris by saying “Trump is a sore loser who cannot be trusted to honor the Constitution.”

A spokesperson for Donald Trump retorted to Geraldo Rivera’s X reply by stating “Who’s Geraldo?” although the pair clearly know each other. The Harris-Walz campaign has yet to respond to the endorsement.

Sore Loser
With three weeks to go until Election Day, Donald J. Trump stands a reasonable chance of becoming the 47th President of the United States. Despite assassination attempts, impeachments, special counsels, felony convictions and hundreds of millions in civil penalties,…
