Donald Trump couldn't hide his anguish over MAGA's sweeping election losses last night, lashing out with a set of five panic-posts on Truth Social hours after the results rolled in.
Trump's first knee-jerk reaction was to immediately distance himself from his party's failures, especially from the big Trump-endorsed losers of the night — Republican Jack Ciattarelli (New Jersey) and Democrat Andrew Cuomo (New York) — posting, "'TRUMP WASN'T ON THE BALLOT, AND SHUTDOWN, WERE THE TWO REASONS THAT REPUBLICANS LOST ELECTIONS TONIGHT,' according to Pollsters.'" — Read the rest

Donald Trump couldn't hide his anguish over MAGA's sweeping election losses last night, lashing out with a set of five panic-posts on Truth Social hours after the results rolled in.
Trump's first knee-jerk reaction was to immediately distance himself from his party's failures, especially from the big Trump-endorsed losers of the night — Republican Jack Ciattarelli (New Jersey) and Democrat Andrew Cuomo (New York) — posting, "'TRUMP WASN'T ON THE BALLOT, AND SHUTDOWN, WERE THE TWO REASONS THAT REPUBLICANS LOST ELECTIONS TONIGHT,' according to Pollsters.'"
The insecure Trump, nearly 80, then tried to distract the public with a desperate brag: "JUST OUT: The 60 Minutes interview of Donald J. Trump, on CBS, Sunday night, was the highest rated 60 Minutes IN YEARS!"
This was all in the wee hours of the morning, mind you, between 3:00am to 4:30am, when the rest of the nation was in a deep slumber. And by 3:41am, still deeply bruised and restless, the former reality show host jumped into authoritarian mode, ordering Rep. Mike Johnson and his other minions to do whatever they could to rig the next election: "REPUBLICANS, TERMINATE THE FILIBUSTER! GET BACK TO PASSING LEGISLATION AND VOTER REFORM! President DJT," he shouted.
"Pass Voter Reform, Voter ID, No Mail-In Ballots. Save our Supreme Court from "Packing," No Two State addition, etc. TERMINATE THE FILIBUSTER!!!" the two-bit president screamed in his next post.
And by 4:34 am, Trump, always a sore loser, finally ended his tantrum with a cryptic threat: "…AND SO IT BEGINS!"
From Politico:
The losses for Republicans, however, were stark. Democrats won all three statewide Virginia races and flipped 13 seats in the state House of Delegates; Democrat Mikie Sherrill beat Republican Jack Ciattarelli by 13 points and Democrats took several counties Trump won in 2024; three Democratic Supreme Court justices kept their seats on the Pennsylvania high court; and California voters approved Proposition 50, which will redraw the state's congressional maps to favor Democrats.
In red-leaning Georgia, Democrats even ousted two Republicans in a statewide election for the Georgia Public Service Commission.
Vivek Ramaswamy, a close Trump ally running for governor in Ohio, offered a blunt assessment, blaming the GOP's poor showing in part on the party failing to address rising costs.
"We got our asses handed to us," he said in a video posted on X.
