Supportive mom accidentally drags her daughter in blistering election message

Thanksgiving is a time for family gatherings, where you can count on your mom to say something that’s both endearing and, at the same time, wildly embarrassing. Sarah, a TikTok user known as @baddates69, had a preview of this classic mom moment long before the holiday. Her mother, an outspoken liberal, took to Facebook to explain her support for Vice President Kamala Harris and her stance on issues like unions and transgender rights. But things took a hilarious turn when her mom used the opportunity to roast Sarah in the process.

In her post, Sarah’s mom stated that she supports her daughter’s right to choose because, as she humorously put it, Sarah wouldn’t be able to raise a child. Why? Because even a dog’s sneeze makes Sarah anxious. The roast was a little more intense than expected, but Sarah, ever the good sport, took it in stride.

This kind of unintentional but loving shade from moms is something many can relate to. The internet chimed in with comments like, “Not the drive-by roast” and “Do we have the same mom?” proving that these awkward yet affectionate moments are part of a universal family experience. It’s a reminder that while our moms might embarrass us, they’re still coming from a place of love and concern.

In addition to the humor, Sarah’s TikTok also offered a refreshing take on handling election disappointment. Instead of focusing on divisiveness or personal attacks, it highlighted how people can engage in meaningful discussions about the values they support. It’s a reminder that finding common ground—whether through humor or shared values—can be far more effective than fueling an “us vs. them” mentality.

And as for Sarah and her mom, we’re pretty sure this won’t be the last roast. But given the humor and love behind it, it seems like Sarah knows exactly what she’s in for. Here’s hoping that, while people may have strong political disagreements, we can all find ways to laugh and connect during difficult times.
