The Trump Presidency

Headed in that direction. Wouldn't write the eulogy yet.

In case it wasn't clear... I'm being sarcastic. Obama went on to dominate the next election.

I think this will always be the pattern after a new Presidential election... the opposite party will come back the next couple years in waves. Nothing out of the ordinary here. Americans seem to think that switching from a R to a D, or vice versa, will magically fix all of our issues, while considering libertarians unicorns

The thought that Gillespie’s decision to run a racist campaign in homage to Donald Trump because his true agenda is terrible might result in hundreds of thousands of Virginian’s getting Medicaid is the most satisfying thing about tonight.

I don't really know whether to make much of all this tonight. November 2018 is an eternity away and November 2020 is light years away when you're talking about politics.

That said, where I live had two districts long under Republican control go decisively to Democrats tonight. I think there was definitely a backlash against Trump.

I still believe he gets re-elected barring resignation or removal from office. Just being anti-Trump won't be enough for the Democrats in the long run.

Just like when 2010 marked the end of Democrats and Obama, today too, marks the end of Republicans and Trump.

Don't forget the two special elections that were supposed to mark the end of the Republicans and of Trump. Third time's a charm - or so I've heard.

Well, from my perspective, I'll trade two expensive losses in red districts for the kind of energy and grassroots engagement that produced yesterday's results. I'm not reading too much into it relative to 2018 and 2020--Democrats are Democrats, after all, and it's going to take more than a couple of cycles to undo the consequences of being outhustled and outmuscled for a generation at the state and local level.

But I'm sure those grapes were sour.
 
Americans and they overwhelming said "give us some more of this status quo ****, we ****ing love it". WOMEN raped by the thousands, over 99% voted for it. Black people hunted down like dogs for victimless crimes. Virginia can't get enough of that. Perpetual war, what is it good for? Virgina apparently cause Virginians want to see more attacks on us at home.

So great job Virginia. You told up in one unison voice and said "we hate peace and freedom".
