A lot of the progressive Twitter discourse has seemed pretty discouraging the past couple of days. It's not the blue progressive landslide we hoped for but having 4-8 years of Biden/Harris are going to be inestimably better for the country than another 4 years of Trump taking a wrecking ball to the country, norms, democracy, etc. And the Senate isn't totally lost yet. We have two runoffs we could win and we can possibly get creative with some moderate-leaning R's in the Senate. But for now, can't we just be happy with getting rid of Trump?!
