TPM: Democrats Won Everywhere on Tuesday

Josh Marshall, Talking Points Memo: The clearest read of what happened last night is that, as far as I can tell, Democrats won every race that was in meaningful contention anywhere in the country. That's not just high-profile races in New York, New Jersey and Virginia or the redistricting proposition in California. It goes way down into races only obsessives or local observers were watching in Pennsylvania, Georgia, Mississippi and a bunch of other places. Democrats won everywhere, and just about everywhere they won by larger margins than even optimists were expecting.

Surprisingly quiet after Trumpanzee's rather bizarre concession speech the other night. He's expecting waaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyy too much out of the same pack of suckups who failed to deliver an alternative to "Obamacare" in over a decade after its inception in 2014...

If there is a free and fair election this time next year, Trump and MAGA are finished.

Sine they know that, they will sell their souls to Satan to make sure that it is anything but.

Because they are perfectly happy letting lower middle class people who do not have employer provided health care suffer and die. Any alternative to ACA would require spending on tax money on anything other than war and they will not do that.

Please don't start the blue wave s*&^. That's like W standing in front of "Mission Accomplished."

It's one election in an off year. While it might be a sign of momentum building, it's far too early for back pats and is really a sign that effort needs to increase, messaging needs to learn and improve and those who want change from our current nightmare need to dig deeper and entrench themselves further in the long fight.

There's a lot of damage that can be done in the next year and one year is a TON of time for a lawless administration to kneecap free and fair elections in next year's midterms.

Multiple lines, unlimited syllables, no meter or rhyme, mostly unintelligible, some words in ALL CAPS.

Q: What is the sound of one MAGA hand clapping?
A: CLAP CLAP CLAP BROWN PEOPLE ARE COMING TO RAPE YOUR BABIES!!!!! CLAP CLAP CLAP

MAGA Koan: If a mail-in ballot is in the forest and an evil baby raping liberal isn't around to collect it, does it still get counted?

MAGA Buddhist philosophy: In order to eliminate suffering we need to make EVERYONE SUFFER and teach them that it is just the price one pays for simply existing.

Spoon fed nonsense that doesn't reflect a single living person's actual views and opinions.

Stop being a gullible fool.

That's not quite true. Gender-affirming care should absolutely be part of normal healthcare, and healthcare should be a responsibility of the government.

Not all gender-affirming care is surgery, but surgery should absolutely be covered as part of Medicare for All.

Because we don't freak out over your fake news like "millions of illegal voters" "children identifying as cats" or "obama's fake birth certificate."

Conservatives are always getting upset over things they made up.

Who refuses to fund SNAP again?

Oh, yeah...the ------- you voted for.

#8... reason 1785 why Trump won, and why the Democrats will take a slam dunk election in 2028 and flush it down the toilet.

We'll see won't we?

That's your opinion of course and you are welcome to it.

Sounds like what you want to happen. What you hope will happen.

Everyone needs a dream to follow.

You obviously hope Republicans will help you with that dream.

So far they are not doing so well in convincing America that they are worthy or even capable of wisely using the power that comes with the office.

So.. Good luck with that.

Who refuses to fund SNAP again?

Pedo47 went so far as to order grocery stores to NOT OFFER DISCOUNTS to SNAP families whose benefits were cut in half.

He wants them starving so they'll put pressure on their reps to allow him to strip health insurance away.

He is vile corrupt scum and anyone who supports this are at the same level.

#22 | Posted by Nixon at 2025-11-06 01:32 PM

fake news like "millions of illegal voters" "children identifying as cats" or "obama's fake birth certificate."

It really is astonishing the level of complete utter nonsense these rubes will accept from a documented compulsive liar.
