After dumping big $ in Georgia and losing it, msm practically ignored it. After yesterday’s d wins, they’re calling it a referendum on Trump. Stating the gop is panicked etc “disastrous” , bad night for Trump” etc. Just one more reason they’re called “fake news” . Pander, bias, omission, etc.

Biggest win in VA since 1899, which could redistrict VA to be less biased towards GOP. After a year of shoving down our throats MAGA and laughing at us, now you're sucking on sour grapes how's that winning feel? Oh right, you didn't US hit Peak Trump

And credit where it is due. Thanks Trump! Your revolting behavior is helping the Dems.

Now this post is what I call "fake news". Basically every word is wrong.

1. GA election was widely covered and headline news for days on NY Times, WaPo, etc.

2. GA election showed Dems massively outperforming past results in an ultra conservative district.

3. The MSM has zero to do with "dumping big $". Media has nothing to do with private donations to a political party. What do political donations have to do with anything?

4. The MSM has tons of quotes of Congressional Republicans being panicked given Tuesday's Dem surge. Are you saying these Republicans are fake; they don't exist?

I happened to catch a little of Fox News. I don't think they know there was an election on Tuesday. Someone should let them know. They however were up to date on it being the one year anniversary of Trump capturing the electoral college (however neglecting to mention he got nearly 3 million votes less than his main opponent).

What's the house? 248 Republicans to 192 Dems? I think the "avalanche" is a bit overstated, don't you???

Senate is what? 54 Republicans to 44 Dems?

White House...well, there's......that....

Oh, and lest I forget, the Supreme Court is back 4:3 against Dems? Hey, when is that ol' winbag moving to New Zealand like she "promised"....

I love the jubilation. Democrats finally finally FINALLY win an election they were expected to win and suddenly it's all over for the GOP.
