Donald Trump did absolutely none of the things people are saying Kamala needed to do to win.

None.

[Elie Mystal @ElieNYC]

I would also like to know the answer to this

[Pete Dominick @PeteDominick]

At this point I am not buying any of the arguments being made about why we lost other than this one. I didn’t go full @ElieNYC but I’m trying.

[Elie Mystal @ElieNYC]

Does “Green Party” candidate Jill Stein have anything to say about this or nah?

Do her voters?

[Elie Mystal @ElieNYC]

Jan 18th, when Biden is still in charge. Not Jan 22, when Trump will sic the National Guard.

The time for an anti Trump march was November 5th. At the polls.

[Bill Kristol @BillKristol]

May I say a word for the Democratic Party for all its faults?

It is the Republican Party that nominated Trump three times, that gave way to Trump, that supports and enables Trump.

The Democratic Party in opposition could have done better. But at least they were in opposition.

[Mike D @mdliny]

@RadioFreeTom Find it fascinating that folks who spent 4 years chanting F Joe Biden and calling their opponents libtards are stunned and aghast that the objects of their vitriol might have formed some opinions about their moral character.

[Gregg Nunziata @greggnunziata]

Tens of millions of people believe Bill Clinton is a liar, a sexual assailant, a draft dodger, a criminal, an all around scoundrel unworthy of the office of President of the United States...and just voted to reelect Donald Trump, enthusiastically.

[Andy Kim @AndyKimNJ]

Just got my welcome package to start up in the Senate! We start orientation in 4 days. No time for a breather but I’m ready to get to work.

[Michael A. Cohen (NOT TRUMP’S FORMER FIXER) @speechboy71]

No Democrats didn’t abandon the working class. The Biden/Harris administration was the most pro-working class in recent memory. The problem for Dems is that policy results don’t lead to electoral benefits https://t.co/pdcY9cUA7h

[Norman Ornstein @NormOrnstein]

Joe Biden will be president until noon on January 20. The Democrats will have the Senate until January 3. Both need to step up to the plate. Biden needs to flood aid and weapons to Ukraine, pushing the envelope on his legal authority. The Senate needs to work night and day to confirm every judge to district and appeals courts where openings exist.

[Molly McKew @MollyMcKew]

Democracies don’t know how to use power in the 21st century—and maybe it’s part of the reason voters are so unhappy with them

We can beat any challenge—and achieve Ukrainian victory—if we have the will to

[Elie Mystal @ElieNYC]

Everyone (on my, losing side of the aisle) is asking "can America be saved from Trump."
I have a better question: Is America worth saving?

My latest in the @thenation arrives at the conclusion that America deserves what's about to happen.

[SouthSideObama™ @TheAvgBlackMan]

@ElieNYC @rolandsmartin @thenation I’m not sure America is worth saving.
I’m not sure Twitter is worth saving. It’s all Trump minions & Russian bots.
Would love another country to migrate to or at least another app lol

[Sophia A. Nelson @IAmSophiaNelson]

The most angering and jarring part of this whole saga is that #DonaldTrump will get away with crimes, and violating all of our norms as a civilized nation of laws. Trump is a criminal. #JackSmith and others having to let him walk away scott-free should offend, and enrage us all.

[Fake Joe Biden @Fake_Biden]

Technically Joe Biden can fire Merrick Garland right now and appoint Jack Smith as acting AG and go after Trump with the full force of the current federal government we all voted for four years ago but he won’t do that because that’s something Republicans would pull.

[Angry Staffer @Angry_Staffer]

Couple things on my mind today:

1. Thank you for everyone who knocked doors, donated, wrote postcards, etc.

It might not feel like it today, but you did good.

2. I know folks are going to want to disengage for a bit. That’s OK. Just don’t give up. This fight still matters.

[Michael McFaul @McFaul]

Today would be a good day for Biden to lift restrictions on the use of our weapons by Ukraine in Russia. Putin is not going to use a nuclear weapon two months Trump comes into office. No way.

[LanaQuest aka RosaSparks @LqLana]

Andrea Mitchell asks if Democrats should think twice about nominating a Black person or woman.

Juanita Tolliver let her have it. She asked, why are you asking Democrats to modify their behavior and not asking white women to modify their voting behavior?
