No, dear God, no, not Feingold. What the hell is happening tonight?
The GOP is about to control all three branches of government.

Not unrealistic

If #Trump & his more extreme supporters lose this at this point, they will actually engage in an open revolt.

John King just called his magic electoral board "she," so I understand why no one can touch it a bit better now.

3.85%. People don't understand math.

To keep things in context: even if this all comes true, Lochner isn't going to be overturned, nor Roe v. Wade. We are overdue for a crash, and it'll land on the lap of the Rs. Democrats will bounce back in 2-4 years, and Dems will continue their inevitable march into history.

Should I look forward to lots of think pieces about the last gasp of deplorable white people?
