While I don't outright disagree and maybe it's just the residual effects of a bottle's worth of bourbon speaking I kind of need to pretend the worst isn't going to happen for at least one night or two.

I've been screaming since the beginning of the year that the most likely result is that Dems pick up the House and refuse to govern and fight back and this permanently ushers in fascism and one of the omens that this WASN'T going to happen was Feinstein failing to get re-elected, and, well... Also Pelosi GOTTA GO https://twitter.com/drmistercody/status/1060029804752265216

The Democrats are going to be signing on to all types of random right-wing poo poo. God drat the last 2 years has been particularly bullshit. Russia-gate, the blue wave, #resistance etc etc all is probably going to led to some centrist Democrats signing on to tax cuts and corporate welfare.

Not kidding about Hillary being the kiss of death, I thought we'd get Gillum and Nelson would lose for being worthless. Instead they both went down in flames. Don't worry though, the immediate hot take was that Gillum was "a radical leftist not aligned with florida voters", and that's always the mantra: No matter what, the voters want us to move right.

Previa_fun posted:Not to mention their wet dream of impeachment gets us... Yeah, best case scenario, it actually gets worse. (The Democrats are already talking down rocking the boat and the GOP is going to have a strong majority in the Senate, it is going to be piddly poo poo for the next 2 years.)

The impeachment thing is entirely about some desperate need to see "the process" work.

democrats dont actually want impeachment, and would be a lot better if they actually did. nancy pelosi is never, ever going to vote in favor of doing anything substantial and never, ever going to let any democratic house get uppity with ideas of "accountability" or "improvement". https://twitter.com/BBCWorld/status/1060035183305347072 https://twitter.com/aabramson/status/1059827677048307713

Yeah, and the kicker is the GOP has such a strong hold on the Senate now they are probably going to keep it in 2020 and maybe 2022. Not only is a Democrat not going to be able to accomplish anything but if there is an actual recession next year (the odds are ticking in that direction), then there will be no consensus for fiscal stimulus beyond some tax cuts and probably deepening austerity measures.

and who comes flying in from stage left, right on cue lol quote:So I know, oh my god but see here's the thing, she has to do this because it wasn't the huge blue wave we were hoping for. The bigger the majority the easier it is to have some kind of "bully" power, but it didn't quite work out that way. But I doubt that Pelosi's call for "bipartisanship" means that she's suddenly going to be passing anything of Trump's agenda.

You'd think they at least wait until they're done counting the votes before telling the people who just voted for them that they're not going to do any of the stuff they were elected to do.

Anyone reminding folks to temper their expectations the past few days was met with corn cobs posting the emote over and over. Results tonight weren't completely terrible and I'll take it but I'm half tempted to prematurely on Trump winning 2020.
