Kaine to Clinton supporters: ‘This isn’t a time to give up’

Sen. Tim Kaine (D-Va.) had a message for supporters Thursday: “This isn’t a time to give up.” 

{mosads}Taking to social media, Hillary Clinton’s running mate expressed his disappointment in the outcome of the presidential election.

“I’m as disappointed as anyone. We had the opportunity to elect a candidate — the first woman president — who would have brought people together, created jobs, strengthened our nation’s leadership across the globe, and opened up ladders of opportunity for countless Americans. It pains me to say that Hillary Clinton is not going to be our next president,” Kaine wrote on Facebook. 

He continued and said it is time for supporters to “strengthen our resolve to fight against injustice, break the gridlock in Congress, and use government to make people’s lives better.”

Kaine said the U.S. should “put this divisive election behind us” and work with the Trump administration. 

“We need to do all the good we can and serve one another. That is what I’m about. And it’s why, in the Senate, I’m committed to working with both parties and President-elect [Donald] Trump to find the common ground to move our country forward.”
