The incident gained widespread attention after a Facebook user, Tamara Gibbs, shared footage of the gathering, which subsequently went viral. Gibbs described the scene, "What a gorgeous morning to gather at Klode Park in Whitefish Bay to engage in a Primal Scream in order to release our pain and frustration after the election." She also noted the presence of Trump supporters on a nearby hill, proudly waving their flags.

The group, predominantly composed of women, congregated at the edge of the lake that morning, releasing a collective scream towards the water. Some participants were even observed taking a dip in the icy lake waters.
The spectacle drew sharp criticism from conservative commentators. Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk wrote, "So yeah, a bunch of libs got together for a 'primal scream' ritual, releasing their anger by screaming at Lake Michigan all because Donald Trump won. This Thanksgiving, be thankful this isn't you."

Gunther Eagleman, a conservative commentator, questioned the mental stability of the participants, stating, "These people are not mentally stable."

Liberals held a ‘Primal Scream’ event at Lake Michigan to get their frustrations out of their system after the election. These people need help."
The incident raises questions about the state of political discourse in the country and the extreme reactions elicited by electoral outcomes. It also underscores the deep divisions that continue to characterize American politics.
