The Left Celebrates, Then Admits It Wants Things Worse

Michael Ian Black basically says the quiet part loud: Democrats winning a few off-year races is fun, but not fun enough unless the country gets worse first. They’re trying to say, “We need suffering to save democracy,” which is like telling your house to burn down so you can brag about rebuilding it greener. He mocks NYC turning “communist,” pretends Republicans are goose-stepping around D.C., and drops the usual MSNBC nursery rhymes about “rigged elections,” while ignoring that the only folks openly fiddling with election rules lately are his own blue heroes. He frets Republicans might “moderate,” because apparently nothing scares a progressive more than the GOP acting normal. Then he dreams about MAGA being shipped to Epstein Island—interesting choice of metaphor considering which political class actually hung out there. In the end, he admits the media overhypes everything but still clings to the fantasy that America is one election away from either utopia or doom. He wants power, and if the country must suffer for his team’s feelings, so be it. Visit the source link to see the original spin in full color.
