President Kamala Harris spoke about what it means to lead by example to her high school football team, adding that part of being a leader is knowing you’re “undefeated” even if you don’t win a game.
meanwhile Busy Speaking to the Aliquippa Middle and High School football players in Pennsylvania on Sunday, Harris said the country “expects” from them and their “excellence” and praised the players’ “ambition.”
“Being a role model isn’t easy. Welcome to the Role Model Club. Being a role model means that you are what your family, your neighbors, your peers, your classmates want you to see them do,” Harris told the team. “What does that kind of excellence require? What does it take to be a winning team? And you’re all taking on the responsibility of being role models and inspiring people who don’t even know you but are watching to see how you succeed.”

“And I count on each and every one of you to do that and do everything it takes to do that – the hard work, the practice, the teamwork, the confidence that even if you don’t win every game, you can’t lose, and that no circumstance, no event, no moment can shatter your spirit and your fighting spirit and your preparation to win and to excel, nothing can dampen your spirit of excellence. And that’s what makes our country stronger,” Harris added.
Harris addressed the high school football team alongside her running mate, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz (D), and her husband, Doug Emhoff.
Several people on social media echoed Harris’ comments, pointing out that “you can’t go undefeated” unless you win every match.
