This actually made me well up a little. There's a right way and a wrong way. D's chose the right way, and I couldn't be prouder to be a Democrat today. Now, let's prove the voters right and get shit done!
This is some dark, overt shit, right here.

If you're a fan of schadenfreude, you're going to love reading about the mood at the White House on election night. πππ€£
The word is out about the Election Night Watch Party at the White House on Tuesday.
For weeks, Trump had been assured by Susie Wiles and his staff that all the polls were wrong, and that, once again, the Blue Wave would only be a ripple, if one even showed up at all. And the DOJ was ready to pounce on it if it did.
Trump, after all, was on the ballot. "Vote like I'm on the ballot,' he said, "Because I am."
He told every rally that. He said it on FOX. He had a 90% approval rate, he said. And $5000 checks for everybody. What could possibly go wrong?
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
So the East Room was decked out with the finest crystal and china. Staffers thought it would be a fun "cheeky rebuke" to order in platters of finger food from Cheesecake Factory. Just to give a finger to Barack Obama, for his viral joke about Trumpβs gaudy renovations to the White House.
EVERYONE showed up in their party clothes. His Staff. His Cabinet. Top GOP politicians. Donors.
But there was no Host or Hostess to greet them. Which was a little odd. The guests mingled among themselves, and waited to be formally welcomed and invited to sample the refreshments.
Where were Trump and Melania?
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Trump waited upstairs in his residence, in order to make a grand entrance to a standing ovation with cheers, once the happy results started pouring in.
And was Melania also waiting upstairs, to march in at his side?
Nope.
Melania was not at the White House at all. On election night, the most anticipated night in politics, with the rest of her husband's term on the line, Melania was somewhere else.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Finally at 8:00 the first election results came in. But during that entire first hour, not ONE Republican was named. It was only Democrat after Democrat, starting with Jon Ossoff.
Trump never came downstairs. At all.
Marco Rubio was the first to go missing, according to the Daily Mail. Then, one by one, the rest of the party goers slipped out the door.
Only two hours later, an enormous decision was called. Democrats had flipped the House of Representatives to their control. And in most cases, the Democrats won, not by slim majorities, but by double digits.
It was 10:00, and the East Room was empty. The party goers had gone to a nearby Washington bar to drown their sorrows. The Cheesecake Factory food lay untouched on the East Room tables.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
And Trump? He was upstairs watching the results on FOX News, and posting angrily on Truth Social.
He wasn't alone. No, Melania wasn't with him. But Natalie Harp was.
The Daily Mail reports that Susie Wiles, his Chief of Staff was upstairs as well. The one who had assured him day after day that Republicans would win.
By 11 pm, Trump stopped posting. βHeβs watching Fox News barely uttering a word and paralyzed into silence,β a source close to the president told the Daily Mail.
βItβs very, very dark in the residence,β one senior official said of Trumpβs mood. βItβs a dark scene.β
Another source said, βThey were delusional right until the very end.β

Taking a break from edits and politics to kick off my holiday movie bingeing as I always do, with The Queen and Last Holiday. (and I just found out there's a sequel coming next year!)

This election was a vote against Trump and MAGA, not a mandate for Bernie Sanders and socialism.
The quickest way to lose in 2028 is to let the far-left gaslight you into believing otherwise.
The shame has officially set in... and I'm here for it. May it eat him alive.

Every time you hear Trump say βif I was on the ballot, we would have wonβ just know that he is expressing crushing shame.

Last night, every state I have ever lived in (NJ, NH, NC, SC) did the right thing⦠except the one I live in now. Floriduh, where hate beats sanity every damned time.
