Full Democratic control of Washington made him want to slit his wrists in the bathtub.

On Fox News' "Hannity" Monday night, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) jokingly suggested that the prospect of full Democratic control of Washington made him want to slit his wrists in the bathtub.

"'It's not just like tear-rolling-down-the-side-of-the-cheek depressing," he said. "It's draw-the-warm-bath-and-get-a-sharp-blade depressing.'"

Had the Good Guys been able to sack Cornyn, Collins, and Ernst, Democrats could have been in a position to steam-roll McConnell.

Our leaders always behave responsibly. This is so inappropriate, but we hardly notice it anymore.

I really don't care he is depressed. I hope it lasts decades.

But we aren't in any danger of losing him.

I felt overwhelmed with the horror of four years of that shit.

I moved to WA. It helped me tremendously.

But
The red sickness got real bad here this year. Especially eastern WA. But the blue held and I moved to Ballard away from the idiots in rural Murica.
