US President Joe Biden and Vice-President Kamala Harris made a rare post-election joint appearance on Dec 15 to thank donors who raised more than US$2 billion (S$2.7 billion) during the Democrats' unsuccessful 2024 election cycle, and to urge party members to keep fighting for their values.

"Our spirit is not defeated. We are not defeated... We are strong, we are clear about why we are in this," Ms Harris told guests at a holiday party hosted by the Democratic National Committee.
"We cannot let any circumstance or situation or individual ever take away our power... we know what we stand for, and that's why we know what to fight for." Mr Biden said it was critical to keep fighting.
