Meghan McCain had just two words after Tuesday’s brutal Election Day results for Republicans.
“Fucking bloodbath,” the conservative commentator tweeted on X, after Democrats won in a historic landslide across the country.
McCain added that “It is not an exaggeration to say last night was an extinction level event for republicans.”
“This was not JUST about Iran and gas prices (although that is significant),” she wrote. “Some of this is cultural, social, and the fact that this administration has propped up cruel, unserious, corrupt weirdos who just want to be social media influencers.”
She also listed the additional reasons why she thought “Republicans got obliterated,” and named groceries, Iran, Epstein, corruption, misogyny and an “Instagram influencer cabinet.”
Democrats’ decisive victories ― which the pro-Trump New York Post declared a “Blue Tsunami” ― mean the party will regain control over the House and the Senate next year.
“The American people have rebuked the depravity, corruption and incompetence of the failed lame-duck President Donald J. Trump,” Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-Ga.) said after his victory over Rep. Mike Collins (R) on Tuesday. “Let tonight’s results give you courage that the first light of dawn is on the horizon.”
Many were quick to blame Trump entirely for the losses, and MS Now’s Lawrence O’Donnell gleefully declared that “the Trump reign of terror is over.”
“This changes everything,” O’Donnell said on Tuesday night. “This means that Donald Trump could not get a Supreme Court justice confirmed if a vacancy occurs in the remainder of his presidency. This means that there’s absolutely nothing Donald Trump can do about the budget of the United States of America without the Democrats in the House and the Democrats in the Senate.”
“The governing of the country has now just shifted out of the White House,” he added. “He’s left with his executive orders, most of which, from this point on, will be wildly illegal and will be dragged into court immediately. This is as powerless a presidency as we will have seen in our lifetimes from this point forward.”
