‘White Dude for Harris’ faker has epic meltdown as he realizes Trump is going to win election
A man posing as a “White Dude for Harris” went viral during the election for a staged meltdown designed to spoof the hysteria engulfing Kamala Harris’ distraught supporters.
A video posted on X showed a man shouting profanities before taking off his shirt and storming the camera.
“I can’t believe Trump is actually going to win this damn thing.” he exclaimed. “Oh Jesus Christ. I’m so fucking out of it. F***, f***, goddammit.”
White Dudes for Harris is a coalition of white men who have endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris as the Democrat presidential candidate.
The man in the video was later identified as Steven Williams, 50, who co-hosts the podcast LolcowLive.

In October, Donald Trump targeted the group ‘White Dudes for Harris’ during his speech at Al Smith’s annual political dinner in New York City, delivering a series of sharp blows to the group and the audience in attendance.
Trump appeared at the high-profile Catholic charity event and wasted no time in unleashing a barrage of zingers on the group.
“There’s a group called ‘White Dudes for Harris,’” he said.
“But I don’t worry about them at all, because their wives and their wives’ lovers all vote for me.”
The crowd, which included comedian and event host Jim Gaffigan, who sat just a few seats away from Trump, erupted in laughter.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, who was sitting nearby, kept a stony expression and showed no reaction to the comment.
“White Dudes for Harris” leader Ross Morales Rocketto responded to X with a message the next day.
“Last night Trump claimed that all white men who voted for Harris are assholes.
“I think he will be surprised this November when we (and our wives’ lovers) elect Kamala Harris as our next president,” Rocketto wrote.

The group was formed to address a key demographic weakness for Harris — white men — and to challenge Trump’s strong support among that group.
On its website, “White Dudes for Harris” says, “We know that as white dudes, we have both a strong and positive role to play in America’s shared future.
“We are not going to let the MAGA mob bully other white boys into voting for a hateful and divisive ideology.”
After President Joe Biden withdrew from the 2024 presidential race, Harris quickly raised more than $100 million in donor money within 24 hours.
When Harris formally accepted the party nomination at the star-studded Democratic National Convention in Chicago the following month, she was well ahead of Trump in the polls.
But Trump staged a remarkable political comeback, emerging victorious in the 2024 presidential election to reclaim the White House after capturing the key swing states of North Carolina, Georgia and Pennsylvania.
