(29,149 posts)not because of the tears or your enjoyment, but because "trumptard" is not a word worth using. So I'd say pick a different insult, but otherwise, enjoy away!

(19,066 posts)And it's an extended schadenfreude session because they've chosen to make it one.
In a normal election, there's election night and a winner is declared and there's about a week of gloating and then everyone goes back to their lives. But Trump not accepting defeat has drawn it out into a series of defeats for his side. I think one of the goals of Trump's trying to overthrow our Democracy is that he wants to rob people of the joy of his loss. He wants everyone in constant fear.
This has been over for several weeks, none of these legal challenges was ever going to go anywhere. It was just a way for Trump to terrorize his enemies for a little longer. And today he still tries, there is nothing that will prevent Joe from taking office in about a month. Congress is not going to stand in the way, all that will happen is some of Trump's cult members in Congress will make fools of themselves and make it clear they are against our Democracy.
In 36 days, Joe Biden will take office. Trump will still try to make noise, but he's no longer going to be a daily story, he's going to be background noise and nothing more. Enjoy his defeat, it's a chance for our country to lead again.
