Citizen Pampers (Donald Trump) and other GOPers were so sure there would be a "red wave" in Tuesday's mid-term elections. However, many of the results show that it was really a referendum on Trump fatigue.
Early this morning, former talk show host Dr. Mehmet Oz did the smart thing and conceded defeat to Democratic Lt. Governor and stroke survivor John Fetterman in the Senate race in Pennsylvania. Imagine the reaction at Mar-a-Lame-o:
Also in Pennsylvania, Josh Shapiro spanked election denier Doug Mastriano, who, as of press time, had not conceded, unlike Oz, to become Governor.
In New Hampshire, Maggie Hassan retained her Senate seat, beating back the challenge of Don Bolduc, which led to Trump disowning Bolduc, who had previously changed course on claims of election fraud in the 2020 election.
NY Misrepresentative Lee Zeldin cited some wi-fi issues in his native Suffolk County as a reason for not yet conceding the Governor's race against Kathy Hochul. Despite his assurances to supporters that the votes would tighten the race, Zeldin is not winning. An independent 3rd party had taken the advice of YouTube commentator Farron Cousins, and ran attack ads against Zeldin, highlighting his support of Trump, using existing footage of Zeldin speaking about his support of the oldest baby in America.
And, in Arizona, "Shake 'n'" Blake Masters failed in his bid to knock Mark Kelly out of the Senate. Ex-news anchor-turned-brainwashed drone Kari "Empty" Lake is not yet conceding defeat, and, like the Archduke of Affluenza two years ago, stoked fears of non-existent election fraud before the polls opened. There were some election machine malfunctions in the infamous Maricopa County, as well as in Albany County here in NY, but those issues will have or have been resolved.
"WAAAAAH!!!" The Road Runner had something to do with this! WAAAAAHHHH!"
Yeah, sure, Fraudleroy. Birds and coyotes can't vote.
Reports out of Colorado suggest that Lauren Boebert may end up another one-and-done, just like Foghorn Cawthorn in North Carolina, and Foghorn is rumored to be leaving Tar Heel Country for parts unknown.
The GOPers retaking the House of Representatives appears to be assured. The Senate? Not so much. And Dumb Donald is making a "big announcement" at Mar-a-Lame-o next Tuesday? Sources claim it has nothing to do with running in 2024, but knowing the reality-challenged Trump, that might still happen. He dissed Florida dictator Ron DeStupid, calling him "DeSanctimonius", but the incumbent turned back the challenge of Charlie Crist rather easily, and senior members of the GOP are leaning toward DeStupid as the nominee for president in '24, instead of the human Annoying Orange, who could be in prison or a psych ward by then.
Of course, expect more of this:
In the weeks to come.
