Kagro in the Morning - November 9, 2022

David Waldman and Greg Dworkin told you so. Today, they will tell you even more.

Did you read the news? Joe Biden and the Dems did very well last night, or as the mainstream media calls it, “not a repudiation”. It will take them a while to figure out how Democrats did so well with so many incorrect messages. It might be that people are complicated and will vote for a complicated party over a very simple one. Fox News does have the simple answer, though.

No one can explain how Raphael Warnock vs. Herschel Walker are headed to a runoff election.

Election deniers were denied election! Kentucky votes for abortion rights! Tennessee votes against slavery! Michigan goes true blue. Lauren Boebert might even need to go back to her old job. Except for TV’s Dr. Oz, Republicans who tried to not seem too Trumpy did well. Brad Raffensperger wins again.

Thanks kids! Thanks women! Old white men, well… 

In perhaps related news, Donald Trump is livid and screaming this morning, but that could be anything really. It’s certainly not the election results, which are Melania’s fault. MAGA does seem to be in disarray.  Hail Ron DeSantis, our new Trump, who won big even in some historically blue areas. (In perhaps unrelated news, federal monitors were blocked from polling places in those very areas.) 

Democrats might hold the House. A House majority may come down to the strength of state supreme courts, and the federal one. Maps in four states were ruled illegal gerrymanders. They were used anyway. And just because election deniers lost doesn’t mean the GQP is giving up on election denying, either. 

Joe Rogan admits he lied about schools using litter boxes, so everyone can finally relax about that.
