A year after having suffered what was absolutely the most horrific and cruel defeat in modern political history, you could say that the folks in the anti-MAGA coalition have extinguished whatever exuberance and hubris existed within them and replaced it with pure grit and searing vendetta. First quarter of a four-year slog that’s just one chapter in what will be a generational fight to not just restore sanity and decency to public life, but ensure that never again do the least among us have any significant voice in power… NOW you can go back and forth all you want about the accuracy of that rosy read of the most engaged members of the blue electorate is accurate, nobody’s ever seriously going to expect the same from the Trump fanboys because holy shit they right are back to form after Tuesday’s beatdown. The copium floweth freely on the MAGA interwebs:
“We all knew it would happen. Enjoy the sharia patrols and the obnoxious call to prayer at 5am everyday” – Top comment on the Gateway Pundit’s article headlined “RIP NYC – Muslim Communist Zohran Mamdani Wins New York City Mayoral Race.” He sounds just like those libs who warned that if Trump won ICE would be unleashed to commit horrific human rights abuses and that a wave of unimaginable corruption would swamp the presidency and government, so maybe he’ll be right.
“Can’t the voters claim they are disenfranchised (Democrats favorite word) if 44 percent of the state is popular vote for Republicans, but only 10 percent of the congressional representatives end up Republican? They are not getting adequate representation” – Top comment on Fox News’s California Prop 50 passage article. Of course this asshole has never heard of Wisconsin, about as close to 50-50 in 2024 as you can get but 6 of 8 Congressional districts are still held by Republicans.
“If I drive 116 mph in a 65 mph posted speed limit, I can plead the Jones defense. No jail time, small fine, license not suspended, and I can cheat on my community service. Then I will be rewarded by dumbass voters. I’m crying over this” – Top comment on Twitchy’s article about Jay Jones winning in Virginia. The actual speeding ticket Jones got is was for doing 85 in 55 mph zone in 2022, but the exaggeration aside, lol. Didn’t another politician get convicted of 34 felonies and then get “rewarded by dumbass voters” in the form of being spared from likely dying in prison for his crimes?
