When Obamna made himself laugh you knew it was going to be a blood bath.

That push-up store joke had me laughing so hard my husband heard from the other room.

I love how every person, animal or thing that approaches Seth’s version of Trump always has tears pouring down their face

@@recole374 gerrymandering had nothing to do with statewide elections. That said, it does show the power of partisanship.

But, people are so scared of what the devil Democrats (Demoncrats?) will do, they STILL vote for a total moron. Sad.

Republicans would vote for a plank of wood. These hot takes of "how did this happen" are perplexing. None of this is new. Every Republican candidate is a serious threat, no matter how scandalous, obviously corrupt or brain damaged they may be. Vote against them every time, because if you don't the Republicans will put them into office. Trump should have been proof enough of that.

Georgia had to have a runoff because their law is that unless a candidate gets 50% of the vote, there will be a runoff. This happened, as it so often happens in GA, because there was a 3rd party candidate who took just enough votes.

It's still scary that we are continually being saved by a few thousand voters in states like Georgia, Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania. Is this sustainable?

While I appreciate the chance to laugh during this bleak time in our history, we can’t just dismiss this all as ridiculous. There are more competent versions of these idiots who have now learned the degree to which demagogy can succeed. By the next election we will have Trump 2.0, an intelligent populist with an entire infrastructure in place to ramp up the fear and bigotry to sweep into office and remain there. Half the nation has already proved they’re willing to trade basic civil liberties for the promise of a return to a mythological “real America. Democrats are pleased they only lost a handful of seats, but considering how so many of those elected won’t publicly admit the facts of the 2020 election, this SHOULD have been a landslide. That it wasn’t is cause for anyone who believes in this country’s founding principles to worry for our future.
