    1. I feel so sorry for you all. It’s sad you really think Biden won
      The news media do NOT call elections Nothing is been called
      The Demons you voted for used a program called Hammer and Scorecard. Our military used it to manipulate other Countries elections. Now they used it in our own Country Do you really think Biden won? He did not Trump won folks. The demons want Communism and you all fell fir it.

    2. @Michelle Passmore trump’s the antiChrist. I’m not worried, I’ve read my Bible. I know who wins in the end.

    3. @Constituent A if you read the Bible then you know that everything is destroyed in the end. Doesn’t sound like winning to me.

    1. @We live in a society No need for Name Calling friend.
      The #CCP controlled media have thrown every lie possible lie at Trump for 5 years. It all failed. The BIG STEAL will fail as well because there is OVERWHELMING evidence of Fraud and Cheating. The Esper firing today was because [their] planned Military Coup is not only going to FAIL, it’s going to take down the Deep State.
      1. To have a successful coup, a leader must control the military.
      2. Trump just fired DOD Secretary and installed an American Patriot.
      #. Tranlated, Deep State is TOAST.

      The Stable Genius is always 10 steps ahead. I suggest [they] begin preparations for the inevitable #EXPOSURE immediately. Keep the faith. #WINNING

    2. No, the far left almost lost this election for Biden, and is the reason that McConnel is still the Senate leader. They do not represent the majority of the party, and need to stop representing themselves as such. People like Jayapal should be quiet. The country is not with her.

    1. @Nathan Toth
      Einstein was a progressive. In fact, most intelligent people are progressives. Guess you’re too ignorant to know that.

    2. @Elaniago Most of the so call progressives are extremely antisemitic. Einstein was Jewish, and would never have subscribed to their evil idiology.

  1. In other news, despite knowing 50 Democrats who voted for Biden, none of us own any flags, signs, shirts or hats.
    Why, you ask?
    Because we’re not a freaking cult, that’s why!

    1. @TheBase1aransas Alternatively, we all live in the Bay Area and still get together to let our kids run around outside and none of us have t’rump flags plastered on our homes as a sign to others that we’re part of a cult.

    2. @Ro G Riiiggghhhtt. Because if you had a Biden hat or two or maybe a sign, you would be in a cult. I have an under armor hat. Does that mean I’m part of the under armor cult? I like how you count 4 million like that’s a huge majority. Bet you call 52% of the people the “will of the people”, don’t you? Half the people you meet on the street don’t agree with you. Just saying.

    3. @We live in a society If you can’t tell the MAGA thing is a cult at this point, that’s on you buddy. I’m just saying that the rest of us don’t feel the need to wear a hat to define everything we believe in! 😅😂

    4. @Darcy. t’rump supporters do like to brag about being the “smart ones” despite the fact they worship the dumbest president in history. Which is odd. 🤔😅😂

  2. I’m just so glad that this time Dems recognized that you have to support the best available choice because there never will be a perfect choice and there could be someone even worse than Trump in the future if you make the same mistakes from 2016.

    1. Look I know you are talking about the “Bernie or Bust” people in 2016. The thing is that only a very small % of Bernie primary voters didn’t vote for Hillary. Actually if you go back to 2008, there was actually a larger % of Hillary primary voters that didn’t vote for Obama than there were “Bernie or Bust” people in 2016.
      It would be nice if the Moderate Dems didn’t side with Republicans over Progressives. It would be nice if they sided with the base of their party more than the opposition.

    2. @LiamborninDC WTF does more Hillary supporters voting for McCain have to do with Bernie supporters voting for Trump? McCain didn’t win, Trump did.
      It would be nice if progressive would stop claiming a moderate Democrat is “just as bad” as a Republican or “there is no lesser of two evils”.

      While others voted for Trump, only the Bernie or Busters voted for him because of the damage they knew he’d do, that was the point of their lesson for the “establishment”. Had they stayed home, voted for a third part or even wrote in Bernie, Trump would not have won. It really doesn’t matter what Hillary or others woulda, coulda or shoulda done. What TRUMPS all of that is what they DID..

      Bernie supporters that voted for Trump

      (all of these numbers exceed Trump’s margin. So I’m not saying they handed Trump the WH, numbers that are)
      MI 48K
      PA 117K
      WI 51K
      Trump’s win margin
      MI 11K
      PA 45K
      WI 23K

  3. She is very right, without the progressives helping him, we prob would have another term of Dump. And Stacey Abrams took care of GA. They owe a debt of gratitude to her too.

    1. Maybe so, but their inaction would also have given them another term of Dump too. I don’t see how they could spin that into moral victory.
      The fact is that many Democrats were smeared as police defunding secret socialists and in too many districts that made the difference.

    2. @Suomy Nona Wait until the Dems realize the entire vote was won by CHEATING and the ensuing Riots killing/burning will be started by the Soros Deep State. You are going to have to Wear that as well.

    3. She was wrong. The progressives are the reason that Biden lost Florida, and many good moderates almost lost their reelection, such as Spanbuger.

    4. @Deborah Freedman literally every progressive in a swing district won reelection, that’s on them, plus republicans have a way better program in Florida than the dems. Not to mention that Biden’s outreach to Latinos was abysmal. Progressives helped win Michigan and Minnesota so throw that argument outta here.

    5. @Maudy WTF are you talking about “swing district”? Progressives only win in safe deep blue districts. I watched the ads against Democrats that lost. They kept repeating that they were AOC puppets and police defunding secret socialists. That message worked, they lost. Progressives are toxic.
      They just can’t accept that the majority of the country isn’t deep blue.

  4. Hey, does anyone else remember when a bloated, bankrupt billionaire was repudiated by the electorate, and was dealt a humiliating defeat?
    I do. It was awesome!

    1. Liberal ‘intelligence’: If Democrats win the Senate, BERNIE SANDERS becomes Budget Chairman!! Chuck Schumer: “if Democrats win in Georgia, we will change America”!! You might as well put AOC in charge!! FYI: Congress makes spending bills. IT DOES NOT MATTER if you or anyone believes Joe is a moderate, he will have NO say!! Do you think he will veto his own party? What do you think they will go for first? COVID and healthcare assistance for ILLEGALS, decriminalization of border crossings that will cause a mass exodus out of South America, free school or Medicare for all, erasure of student loan debt or Reparations??? Be proud you are facilitating the Socialist takeover of America, all because you didn’t like the way Donald Trump talked or tweeted!! $27 Trillion and counting! IDIOTS!!

    1. Yeah, but the issue now is that without Trump the common enemy is gone. We will lose badly next cycle unless we make sustained efforts to reach out to the working class, not just people from suburban districts.

  5. The Democratic Party is in a tough spot because they represent a wide range from slightly conservative to extremely liberal.

    1. The people who haven’t accepted the results of the last election are shocked and offended to learn that there are people who refuse to accept the results of an election that hasn’t even been declared yet.

    2. Most of us are moderates, you can see that from how we voted in the primaries. Yet the far left wing thinks it can set the agenda, when all they can do is lose votes for the better, more moderate candidates.

  6. Make your voice heard on YouTube. If a candidate is one you like leave one 👍if you dislike them do the same 👎show them who we are

  7. Georgia, it’s not over until the Democrats can flip the Senate seats in Georgia during the runoff.

    Deadline to register for the federal election in Georgia runoff is December 7th.

    Everyone turning 18 between now and then will be able to register and vote in the runoff.

    Georgia, please encourage anyone who didn’t take part in the main election to get involved.

    A president has a difficult time getting much of his agenda done if there isn’t a majority in the Senate on his side. Mitch McConnell cannot remain the majority leader if we want to accomplish what we want to see in the next two years until the next opportunity to vote during the midterm elections.

    Republicans overall were spineless in standing up against Donald Trump, and do not deserve to have a majority in the Senate. They threw out all integrity nominating Donald Trump in the first place, revealing that they are more interested in power than integrity. A desire for power must be punished! Republicans, Democrats and Progressives need to stay vigilant and involved to gain a the majority in the Senate that will back Joe Biden.

    Much of the direction of our country is resting on the shoulders of Georgia right now. Whether we can move forward quickly, or get held back by a Republican, obstructionist majority in the Senate. Please organize and make sure the Democratic Senate candidates are elected to provide the majority President-Elect Joe Biden needs to back his policy plans.

    Georgia, we know you can pull us over the finish line! When tens of thousands of people tell themselves their vote doesn’t matter, just know collectively it adds up to a lot! Your voice and vote matters! We will be cheering you on, Georgia!

  8. Trying to sow divisive seeds Already mz. KC?

    Let us All take a moment to Rejoice that the Worst person in modern US History has been Voted OUT of the White House.

  9. Biden is not Jaypal choice, Who the “F” cares Biden is America’s choice! Jaypal Get inline with your party or get out. Jaypal you just lost me. I think your choice of words and the timing of your words were VERY poor.

  10. Biden wasn’t even in my top 5 choices, he wasn’t really on my list of people I wanted to win, but I voted for him just to end the Trump administration.
    Authoritarianism in America will continue to pose an imminent danger until we address its roots and underlying causes, and I hope that the solutions offered by Bernie Sanders, and Elizabeth Warren, and Andrew Yang win the day (Along with Jay Inslee’s Climate Plan). Election Reform should be the top priority of this Congress, because, without it, corruption and fraud will continue to run rampant and may run us right into the ground.
    Biden’s a good guy, he’s not my guy (even though I voted for him and he won), but I will give him a chance.
