Report: Kamala Harris and Doug Emhoff feud with first lady following election loss
Many Democrats were blindsided this past fall when President-elect Donald Trump won a clear victory over Vice President Kamala Harris.
Harris' problems haven't stopped following her election loss, as a new report names her and First Gentlemen Doug Emhoff as being part of a feud with First Lady Jill Biden.
Harris and Emhoff have a "frosty" relationship with Mrs. Biden
As the Daily Mail reported, that allegation is laid out in an article published earlier this week by the Wall Street Journal.
It states that the Second Couple and Dr. Biden have had a "frosty" relationship in "private settings." That circumstance is said to have worsened the White House's already "depressing atmosphere."
What's more, the Daily Mail recalled an awkward moment during the annual Veterans Day ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery.
The newspaper pointed out how Mrs. Biden did little to acknowledge Harris and Emhoff when the first couple made their way to their seats.
Mrs. Biden said to be bitter over end of her husband's campaign
Video footage circulated on social media in which the vice president and first lady could be seen appearing to ignore one another.

Meanwhile, the Daily Mail spoke with unnamed sources last month who said that Mrs. Biden is deeply resentful towards many in the Democratic Party for having forced her husband to drop his reelection campaign.
"Jill views Democrats on Capitol Hill, the [wider] party, the Obamas, staff inside and outside the White House, the media, and all of Washington, D.C. with such misguided resentment that I can't imagine she [isn't] encouraging [Joe] to burn the whole thing down, despite his better judgment," one figure was quoted as saying.
First lady reportedly still angry over 2019 busing comment
Mrs. Biden is also said to harbor a grudge against Harris for the way she suggested in a 2019 Democratic primary that her husband was a racist.
Specifically, Harris claimed that then-Sen. Joe Biden would have prevented her from being bused to a mostly white elementary school.
That claim was put forward by Atlantic magazine writer Edward-Isaac Dovere in his 2021 book titled "Battle for the Soul: Inside the Democrats’ Campaigns to Defeat Trump."
"With what he cares about, what he fights for, what he’s committed to, you get up there and call him a racist without basis? Go f--k yourself," Dovere quoted Mrs. Biden as saying of Harris in a Politico article.
