Some GOPers Gently Suggest That Trump Should Finally Prepare To Concede | Talking Points Memo

Some Republicans arrived on television Sunday morning to request that President Trump finally concede his loss to President-elect Joe Biden, a day after the former VP’s return to the White House was projected by news organizations and Biden delivered a victory speech that spoke to a divided nation amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

He’ll never concede.

Note to the Outlaw Jersey Whale, Mr. Mittens and Ms. Muckcowski: The Guardians Of Pandemics are not going to suddenly turn on a dime. Death Cults don’t compromise.

Please make a note of it.

It’s like an Andy Borowitz story.

He started constructing this ego-preserving narrative of his months if not years ago, on how he would exit when he lost. Now he is merely acting it out. We’re watching a very mentally ill man go through his process of coping with a bitter reality that runs absolutely contrary to his image of himself. Of course, it’s stupid, pathetic, and needless.

It’s a horrifically ugly scene, one usually reserved for friends, family and counselors of the afflicted. But thanks to the enabling Republican Party, the entire world gets to witness it firsthand, and deal with the aftermath of years’ worth of terrible decisions made by him.

Absolutely predictable that these three would be among the first. I want to see what the last pathetic Paul/Johnson/Nunes/Graham arse-lickers say–and when they say it.

Chris Christie on the TV: "We can’t back you blindly without evidence.”
Trump, watching the TV: “You are dead to me forever, fatboy.”

Sorry GOP, your entire platform was to support Trump. You’re on the train now. Enjoy.

You don’t know that.

He will concede that Biden cheated.

And that the American people wanted a different result.

These shall be his concessions, and the number of his concessions shall be two.

Dear Lord Republicans what rock have you been living under these last 4 years? The man is never going to act graciously, the man will never put country over self, the man is as Jane Fonda’s character so preciously put in the movie “9 to 5” :
Judy:
You’re a sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical bigot.

Oh, they’ll run eventually all right.

The rest of them will keep kissing Trump’s ass on one hand and leaking damaging stories on the other. All the while hoping and praying for convictions coming out of SDNY. Gotta keep the Trump base on good terms until 2024 but any actual Trumps out of the primary.

I would humbly suggest for the next 70+ days Trump has left in the WH that press stop asking the usual Republicans for their responses to whatever Trump is doing, or not doing. Why don’t you all track down the any of the not usual Republicans for their reaction, take, or hopes on how this will all go down.

Why be gentle about this? I suggest “gentle” as he was with this thousands of refugee kinds in cages…

In reality that kids mom was close by and this was a stunt BUT the point is the expression on that kid’s face…
Here is the reality of what trump did…


Concrete floor in a warehouse, mylar blanket, no windows.
In a fucking cage.
I will never forgive trump for this sadism

This is just so beyond pathetic. Really, the analogies to the last days in a Berlin bunker are apt because these sorry excuses for human beings are terrified over the reaction of their scumbag leader.

More world leaders have congratulated Biden than the number of GOP turds. I just loathe these people, each and every one of them, with such immeasurable disgust. I hope I outlive them all to enjoy knowing they’re off this planet and into oblivion.

Trump is equal parts evil and sick. The Republican Party is exclusively evil. I’m trying to reach across the aisle here.
