Look for Trump to disappear for a few then start a war with Venezuela to distract from the absolute ass kicking MAGA candidates took tonight.

Now make it permanent.

Blue states need to stop with the idiotic unilateral disarmament.

Trump deliberately withholds contingency funds that were set aside to make sure Americans have food, and it's the Dems who are despicable?

California fought back. We Texans who still love the United States say thank you.

If there was no doubt that Democrats would win then I don't understand the fascist rending of garments.

I do expect Donald to accelerate all manner of evil in order to subvert next November.

He's going to leave office in disgrace... again.

Remember when he was so distraught in 2020 that he didn't leave the White House for a week after losing? He wouldn't bring his red-eyed crybaby self into the public... until they could get his meds adjusted enough for a golf game at a safe distance from cameras. This time it will be worse... much... much... MUCH worse... He's too old and senile to throw another 4-year temper tantrum... and Vancy pants doesn't have the chops. Yer dying by the inch ... Mr. shrimp

Yer a mean one ... mister Shrimp.

You're a mean one
You really are a heel
You're as cuddly as a cactus
You're as charming as an eel
Mr. Shrimp, you're a bad banana
Mr. Shrimp, with the greasy black peel
You're a vile one
You got termites in your smile
You have all the tender sweetness
Of a seasick crocodile
Mr. Shrimp
You're a foul one
Friends you don't have none
I wouldn't touch you with a 39-and-a-half foot pole!
You're a monster
Your heart's an empty hole
You're a goner
You got garlic in your soul
You got garlic in your soul

Just Republican votes in Republican districts. As usual.

I see the self soothing excuses about "Dem strongholds" is going to be the dominant coping mechanism.

Yeah, nobody is expecting red s^*%hole states like Louisiana or Mississippi to flip blue. As always, the critical changes will be in purple states where seats flip, both for HoR and state reps.

Doesn't change a thing... There isn't enough Trumpanzee left over to do diddly squat... about anything... and Vancypants doesn't have the chops.

Trumpanzee is being hidden from public view as we speak... crying, throwing chit against the walls... trashing the White House while measuring the drapes... stealing boxes of classified information... desperately clinging to relevence.

"3 dems won in 3 blue dem strongholds"

------------- is still hopelessly clueless.

Democrats won in places you'd expect them to win (NY, California), but also in places that were a surprise (Georgia and Mississippi). Democrats romped to double-digit landslides in the night's most important races (in NJ and Virginia). Even flawed candidates were pulled to victory by the riptide of anti-Trumpism. They won up-ballot and down-ballot. In Virginia they won an additional 10 seats in the House of Delegates. In Pennsylvania, they kept control of the state Supreme Court.

The DR fascists sure are triggered this morning. Can't wait to see their excuses once Sean Hannity figures out how to spin this as a win for the pedophile party.

FUN FACT:

My favorite part of tonight's election results is that all three of the major trump endorsements (Ciattarelli, Miyares, and Cuomo) LOST bigly.

And trump handed out 53 down-ballot endorsements in New Jersey and Virginia. THEY ALL LOST.

Every. Last. One.

In the classical sense its tyranny by the majority.

Given this precedent, the minority party in every state should be worried about ever having a voice at the Federal level.

I voted yesterday in Ventura County at the local Government Center. I was surprised by the size of the turn-out. Usually I can zip in and zip out when I vote. Yesterday I had to wait on line for about half an hour. And here is the BIG kicker: the only issue on the ballot was Prop 50. Meaning, no candidates running for State or local office and no array of propositions and local issue ballots. Just one thing to vote on in the entire ballot: Prop 50. And that alone seemed to draw a very large turnout in California.

Chew on that maggots. We REALLY despise Trump in these parts. And I hope the people in the deep red States read this and begin to understand how deeply Trump is hated by much of the nation.

Has anyone check on the welfare of Pedo Derschowitz?

Preznit Puddin Cup took the drubbing well....threatening to get Bugsy Patel to take time away from being a sky uber for his d list country music squeeze to investigate non-existent voting fraud in CA. Hey girl KKKaroline informed the press of the fraud and when asked for proof her reply was "It's common sense". The cabal of half wits and criminals would not know common sense if they tripped on it.

You are surprised California has the capability to count the votes in one night?

Not very smart are you?

Actually it depends.

That they were able to call the winner early or the same day just means it wasn't a very tight vote.

Or, they can all get their act together and do apolitical redistricting.
