It is really, really hard to get your head around the raw hubris of the majority. They really will be destabilizing the operating structure of the entire U.S. government. Why? Because they believe they have a better idea about how the past century should've been done.

And there were once again statistically impossible abnormalities in the election results - they cheated.
In Tennessee, Democrat Aftyn Behn cut a 22-point Republican advantage down to just 9 points—a massive swing that should have Republicans on edge heading into next year. Combine that with Trump’s plummeting approval and his latest legal and foreign-policy missteps, and you’ve got a week full of wins!
