When are the protests and riots?
When the Klan shows up.
Yeah that's certainly based in 2017 reality. A democrat won, so the violent tantrums should be at a minimum thankfully.

Trump went all in on Roy Moore and so did Steve Bannon...I’m waiting for Roy Moore and Trump to say this election was rigged.

Politco obtained 10,000 texts between the two FBI people Mueller fired.
#BREAKING: Two FBI agents assigned to the Russia investigation exchanged text messages referring to Trump as an "idiot" https://t.co/tdB9rMCcdp

Is it 10,000 texts sayings he's an idiot? That seems accurate and I'm not in the FBI.

I’m mixed in my agreement with the Senators across the border, but at least SC can at put up stand up humans in Graham and Scott.

Lots of overthought thinkpieces will come out, but this is again, about all politics being local.

The only reason this was even remotely close was because Robert Bentley thought he could get out of his ethics investigation by nominating his AG to the Senate, who turned out to be himself ethically challenged. Then, when it came time for the primary Mitch McConnell kneecapped the freedom caucus candidate Mo Brooks allowing Moore to beat him out and force a runoff between Moore and Strange which Moore won.

So I wouldn't draw any actual conclusions from this.

The only conclusion I'm drawing is that there will now be a Democratic senator from Ala-fckin-bama, due to the incompetence of the GOP.

Congratulations to Doug Jones on a hard fought victory. The write-in votes played a very big factor, but a win is a win. The people of Alabama are great, and the Republicans will have another shot at this seat in a very short period of time. It never ends!

This interview between Tapper and a Moore guy is hilarious:

CNN is now talking about the effect of possible disqualification of write-in votes on triggering the automatic recount. Isn't it obvious to them that every disqualified write-in actually INCREASES the percentage margin between Jones and Moore (because you lower the base of the eligible votes, white the number margin stays the same)? :roll:

This may be the most coherent, tweet he has ever made. Definitely going to see 180 tomorrow after Fox and friends.

Sorry I thought the seat was up next year. He still won’t be re-elected.

If I’m a republican then I’m happy about tonight. Democrats just lost their biggest fundraising ploy and Franken has to resign.
