We Won. Joe Biden Will Be President-Elect | Pod Save America 

👑

👑

And sadly the battle for justice and equality is yet to be won but at least now we have someone who will forge the fight and let’s fight for Stacy... our real hero🔥❤️

I appreciate your comments so much. Seriously it’s warming my heart ❤️ and you’ve said it!! Stacey Abrams, yes ma’am. I’m tearing

No doubt you're the MVPs!

👑

She sure is. My new hero

Hellz yea!!!! She made that theft of Georgia and the voter suppression she witnessed came and bit them in the ass!!!! Go Stacey!!!!

YES MAAM! Say her name!! ❤️❤️❤️

I think she should be the first recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom from President Biden. She is a force of nature. Democrats should take her playbook to all 50 states.

Jon Lovett has a talent for putting what is in our hearts to words. Thank you for the beautiful post!❤️

It was basically they I have to say this for legal reasons

I was just about to comment exactly this 😂😂😂

@@Rileynjudkins NOT just for legal reasons. Unlike republicans, democrats have little interest in committing physical violence against their political opponents. Eg, a Republican posted on New Hampshire’s UnionLeader.com, “The Only Good Democrat is a Dead Democrat.” My liberal response is “the only good republican is a non-governing republican.”

In Minecraft.

I'm 100% with you tommy!! I have refused to even entertain the idea of ever going to florida, i'm so over over them! Sorry not sorry

Thank YOU for going through this with us!

hear hear!

So true THANKS GUYS

Ditto

I just discovered them a few weeks ago, and I agree! Love the knowledge and energy.

Thank you, and I believe this journey of ours will make us better partners on the world stage!

Barely

America missed you, this has been a bad trip.

Yes, and the slowness of the results coming in is the absolute best thing for a democracy. The Pandemic gave you a gift. It gave you paper ballots and their keepers: the sneaker and sweats grass root ballot counters who take no crap from anyone in order to keep the peace at the table where the count goes on. Righteous ballot security!

Hahahahahahahahahaha!!!!! You are absolutely right

I second this!!

THIS! When this all started I didn’t know where to look or how to start. You all really helped and you were a guiding light through the hellscape that was the 45th. Thank you. Can’t wait to see what happens with y’all next.

i don't get it. why is everybody (the crooked boys included?) acting as if this election is practically over and we can look forward onto the work that president Biden has cut out for him? we have still tons of legal battles ahead of us. we have still the electoral college members, many of them Republicans, that simply can hand the presidency over to the tRump crime organization. DON'T get complacent, don't think for ONE minute that anything is over now!!!

I feel the exact same way ❤️

I am in Australia - same

I agree, I can’t feel the happiness I should feel. Just that we dodged a bullet for now so we can exhale but there are those 2 senate seats in Georgia. Will we show up? Will we remain vigilant?

@@realfan3565 Yes we can!! (Obama)

Me too. Tears rolling down the cheeks.

Me three 😢

sadly its not over yet man save the tears when its over

Me too. I'm surprised at the emotion I was holding in and am now letting go. I feel like I can live life again in a safer environment.

It's like a Miracle One Day The Root Cause Of This Problem Mr Donald The Virus Trump Will Finally Dissapear Forever only this time it won't be a lie

From s. Korea too!

It’s heartwarming to see the world behind us in this travesty.

I was gonna try and come your way if he won again!

Agree, congrats from Australia. It’s a bit disheartening that so many people got behind Trump but I guess that what happens when mandatory voting isn’t a thing...a less centrist policy position in general and disproportionate representation.

@@SCordova19 come on down anyhow we'll put a sausage or a veggie burger on the barbie (bbq) for you

🍿 Its the best I can do from here.

I know right, Trump just did so many terrible things like... uh... you know

Same in Lisbon. I still can't believe it was this close. My poor heart.

I think the whole of Europe is wondering the same thing. 70 million Red votes? Really?!?! But who cares, winner takes it all.

Moved back to So Calif in 18’ after 22 wonderful years in Denmark (Østjylland)... what a frustrating time to come back. Very relieved we don’t have to endure four more years of the trump circus. All my friends and family in DK are also breathing easier today.

@@adrianl7147 I'm in Germany and a friend called me the day after the election with her hair on fire about the number of people who voted for Trump. I don't understand it either, but what can you say?

🙌Thank you for your vote🙏

This is more than a good idea - we must find a way to make that part of a mandatory national curriculum. My son has had to learn how to react to a mass shooting since he was in FIRST GRADE. Now in highschool, this is another VERY REAL THREAT that his generation has to learn to navigate skillfully. Thank you for sharing - this suggestion *might* make an appearance at the next PTA meeting 😉

I teach it to my Civics class

We need to teach media literacy in high schools. I am making combatting disinformation the cornerstone of my activism.

Susie Eschel, the U.S. has an extremely decentralized educational system. Each state is more or less a country unto itself and each school district has a large degree of autonomy. There is no national curriculum here as there is in Europe. Also, because the Southern states, especially Texas, buys so many of the textbooks, they get to dictate to publishers what information is and isn't included in them, especially history and civics textbooks.

A STERLING IDEA!!!!

Thank you Bobbi for saying that. You always have so much wisdom for us!

Bless!

@@pattyayers , i understand where you are coming from, however it is important to acknowledge that people of colour have been so disenfranchised, for so long, that showing up to vote has to feel pointless. Three cheers for Kamala Harris as VP, a momentous day indeed. PS. You do know, the whole world knows the opinion of white people matters, do they really need to reminded again and again and again. The phrase (in its day), "the sun never sets on the British Empire", wasn't just a cute idea, it was quite literal. Without actually mapping out American military bases, I imagine something very similar could be said about the USA currently.

Thank u angels of color, we will cover your backs, lets all celebrate this great victory, & work with President Biden-Harris to clean up the mess left, they need our help. God bless & stay safe.

@@brianwalkup5214 Thanks Brian!!

@ralf dsouza we fight for the senate seats in GA.

New to me! Xo

New to me too!

So well stated Kelsey!

Hahahahahahahahahaha, yes he did, hahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!

You mean the one who kept saying she was the governor even though she isn't?

@@morganatorricelli1413 No. The one who kept saying that the current Governor practiced vote suppression when he was AG and running the very election he won since he refused to resign. So the election was unfair, but the result was legal. That Stacey Abrahams.

Our high school class of 81 gathered $ for a thank you to a classmate who we were told had worked her ass off for months in Atlanta. We thought we were just sending flowers, but the amount was so large we’re sending cash to the awesome lady who we also discovered is still waiting to see her unemployment come through. All the feels for this. It’s all about just people. Blessings to everyone who worked so hard for this win.

This election is just our first step in recovery! We are just getting started.

We love you Canada and we're sorry.

We are a family of nations and anyone of us could be next. We need a " cancel your twitter account" campaign. It's killing our logic

This Canadian is BEYOND happy right now 🇨🇦😀🇨🇦

@@oceanrock733 I second that! Thank you Canada.

Europeans are dancing on the streets!

Me too! It's been such a long four years of so much hate spread. I hope we as a country can come back from it.... And I am pretty dang sure, J&K will help with that.

I want to laugh at people that elected two people more racist than the entire kkk.

@@Xdb9nz j

Me too. =( Florida is grounded until its brain develops.

Congrats on your $15 minimum wage

Georgia has become very important.

most you can hope for is a 50-50 split. I think we're going to have to wait till 2022 to flip the senate which the democrats have a very good chance of doing so since a lot of republican incumbents are retiring.

Let's get to work! 💪Turn the Senate blue in 2022!

@@thrivinganarchy5267 50-50 senate & VP Harris is the tie-breaker

Donate to Ossoff immediately.

Hey we never left you. We will always be beside you. When Obama won it the biggest celebration around the world I cried so many happy tears. I don't think he was appreciated enough and that mcturtle stopped him from doing more because he's so obviously a racist. Then the idiot got in and I laughed so hard I thought it was a joke, oh boy was I right. But then it got ugly he is disgusting to say the least at one point we all stopped laughing, it was anger and disgust listening to the filth and boy the lies, we all felt for you knowing what you were going through. And the rethuglians are just as bad, they condoned his behaviour. But the people came through big time, America has always been proud and true and the last 4 years you have been so brave. You have been through so much and the hate is astounding and very sad. But you know what???you got through it all you should be very proud of you. It's time for healing now and to get rid of EVERY SINGLE repug because they are to blame just as much, they are not patriots. They need to go. I and millions of people world wide will be watching it get out of THE PEOPLE'S HOUSE. be very mindful and NEVER FORGET how close you came to losing your democracy so it NEVER happens again. Anyway partay everyone you deserve it but in a safe way. Enjoy the ride cos we all are. Be safe be happy, you are loved and at this moment admired more than ever. God bless you and GOD BLESS AMERICA

Again putting America second. It is what the Democrats do. Tell me how Trump is hitler again. I would love for you to speak nonsense

Ocean Rock just wait a bit. then you will notice that you started having a Hugo Chavez episode right now, and that you will be in a few years where venezuela is right now by courtesy of your new masters in beijing. all thanks should be directed to president idiot in the white house, who is too demented and corrupt even to notice. after all, his son is on beijing`s payroll.

🙌Thank you 🙏

AMEN. She should be elected to or given whichever position/role she wants

@@E.W. Except for Kemp running his own election as Secretary of State, she’d be governor now. The GOP are cheats top to bottom.

🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦 Thank you Georgia, Pennsylvania, Nevada, etc...but very disappointed in Kentucky and in South Carolina sending McConnell and Graham back to the Senate. They will do everything to make it harder for Biden and Harris to heal your nation. Never knew that human beings could walk upright without a spine and play both sides with such ease

@@anthrogurl4484 I think this is a case of a blessing in disguise. If she hadn’t lost she wouldn’t have been able to do the groundwork she’s been doing which could ultimately give us the senate and the presidency. Thank you Stacey for not giving up!!

You're going to need to flip the recount first. I guarantee you there will be a reversal of Biden's lead in Georgia. It's irrelevant if Pennsylvania etc hold up against the legal challenges but we've got to get over that hurdle first.

Georgia's been the most fascinating race this election.

Absolutely!

@@pakde8002 Biden has a 7,200 vote lead. It's hard to throw out 7,200 votes that have already been counted or discover 7,200 uncounted ballots somewhere all for Trump. It's far easier to suppress the vote or discard provisional ballots, things I assume election officials have already done.

georgia vote the crooks out

That's it, exactly. A little worried that he can still wiggle and squirm until inauguration, but relieved. I actually slept a few hours last night.

The nightmare has just begun!

Loved following you fellas throughout. So happy for all of you. Congrats 👏 Now next steps.... 20+ orange jumpsuits.

It won't be good. Mitch won't work with a progressive cabinet so no Bernie or AOC or Warren as they're too left.

Yeah until 270 of the 538 electoral college members cast their vote in favor of Joe Biden, I probably won’t be calm.

Thank you for the kind words - this means a lot to all of us here at Crooked HQ.

THANK YOU PSA! You got me up after that horrible day in 2016. You got me through. You made me laugh and you gave me backbone. You got me to volunteer, and you helped me believe how much everyone counts. You really helped me and so many millions of others to save our democracy.

Just for a minute though, I'm going to breathe and relax for the first time in 4 years and appreciate the light at the end of the tunnel. Most of us need that.

Not to mention the moment Biden pulled ahead in Georgia they called for a recount...the Georgia Secretary of State, not Trump's lawyers. The governor of Georgia would like nothing better than to be the one to give Trump his victory. The man is an utter sycophant. Until every vote is counted and certified and every legal challenge is defeated this is still Trump's election to win. I don't care what the Decision Desk HQ says. I'm the fat lady in my universe and I'm not singing.

That's right, if the Senate can't pass any significant reforms, some people might mistakenly blame the president again 😑 Turtle muppet face needs to move over.

@@pakde8002 As of right now (@ 5:30PST), Biden leads in Georgia by over 4.3K votes, and my understanding is that recounts typically net the challenger 1K or fewer votes. Basically, as long as Biden leads by more than 1.1K votes in the certified final totals it is incredibly unlikely that Trump will win a GA recount. Looking at ALL of the other states that will allow a recount, Biden's margins are so great that it makes any potential change mathematically irrelevant. Besides even if, by some unforeseen event, a recount in GA flips the state to Drumpf all that means is Biden will have 290 Electoral Votes instead of 306; Biden would still be President-Elect...

@@bkdmode But the runoff elections for the two senate races are still very worrisome. Unless democrats pull off North Carolina's and Alaska's senate races, governor Kemp could do what he seems to do best and use voter suppression to skew the seats in the Republican's favor.

Yes finally, the ex VP of the administration that bombed more than any other. We can go back to that, with decency.

@@kennwan9917 the fact that Biden's election - yes, he is a far from perfect candidate - feels like a massive relief is a crushing indictment of what an appalling president Trump has been.

@@LeeBee-hs6mj maybe a relief for you, not so much people in 3rd world countries

@@kennwan9917 Right, it's an unbelievably overwhelming relief to them.

@@DamienPalmer mate I'm not a trump supporter, but it's delusional to think the Obama/Biden administration wasn't devastating for the well being of innocent civilians in continents far from you.

LOL and the images of president idiot tumbling down trying to climb the stairs to air force one will be mine.

Definitely a thousand years

Thank you for doing that!

Does it fundamentally change anything that they haven't. Will it change anything when they do? No, and no. I'll be on edge until Dec 14.

PussyGalore: We can multitask. Circle jerk and work hard for those two GA seats. Sending donations today to both.

Don’t say “Miss Lindsey”. Be best.

I pray the run offs go our way! I hate that moscow Mitch, lindsey, Joni and the other butts got back in! The thing we have to do now is, work on making things better. Making the rumpsters realize that he was Not right for this country. He can buy a inland some were and be King, now!

PussyGalore - not only that, but it is a census year so the republican gerrymanders will get a 10 year extension 😬

I think we should absolutely pause and celebrate, thinking we are always losing is the quickest way to demobilize people. The map has been stacked against Democrats for years esp. with Senate races, yet Democrats are very close to complete control of government and Biden got the largest turnout of any candidate ever.

kamala harris locked up thousands of innocent black fathers

@@Xdb9nz Thanks!

Thank you for doing the good work, Brian!

@@podsaveamerica Thanks guys. That means a lot to me.

@@podsaveamerica Hey guys! Would you check out my response to your heart for my post that encouraged everyone to feel the joy of this moment. I have cooked up a new scheme and I think you should read it.

Totally important !! Senate balance needed.

Amen!

Yup

Creating a democracy that does not have neoliberalism at its core...

@@Taneehl agreed, socialism the way forward

@@Taneehl yup

@@Taneehl you actually believe that a republican Senate will be OK with your plan?

My wife and I said the same thing. Even hough I am so happy for him and Kamala and for us all americans.

Yeah I feel uncomfortable celebrating right now. I’m going to be on edge right up to the moment Trump is finally dragged out of the White House.

Same. It's too close to be comfortable.

DecisionDeskHQ called it

2020 is a vengeful foe. It looks for any opportunity to crush hope. I take nothing for granted. I will celebrate when we're free and clear. 🙅‍♂️

If she doesn’t get a cabinet position, Biden hasn’t learned a thing. She’s so smart and diplomatic. How she kept her composure and didn’t punch Kemp in the face is beyond me. I would have punched that smug asshole in the face and said good bye to politics. She didn’t, she mobilized.

@@nolannolan7323 I don't care if she has a cabinet position, I want her to be super involved in future campaigns.

She really is. We all owe her so much 💙

I very much doubt he will ever deliver one. Whether he walks out on his own or is dragged out kicking and screaming, he will never admit that he lost, and will spend the rest of his life claiming that he won but it was stolen from him.

I totally relate to that. At times I even found it hard to breathe while I surf for the latest updates. 🙏😬

i felt just as sick myself on election night. i realised that this level of anxiety and discomfort i feel during US elections is the same i used to go through when i thought wrestling was real and stone cold was wrestling for the wwf championship

For weeks, and weeks . . .

Yup after the election night I felt hopeless and it really felt like the beginning of the end. And I felt it was the end of the world almost - like all hope is lost. Really appreciate the glimmer of light we got with Biden's win.

Thanks to the American people where ever we live to participating the the removal of a cancer from the White house

You guys need to fix the two party only system and tilted media. It encourages divisiveness.

Love from Canada, we are very happy to have sane neighbour back. Wishing you get the senate too in Jan.

They really aren't that close. The mail-in ballots are going to Biden. When they are totally finished Biden will have won by a major chunk.

Apparently the education needed is college education because we've lost the non college educated vote. If I was Biden I'd forgive all college debt and give any family making less than 200k a year reduced or free four year college and require associate degree a d technical degree programs for fresh high school graduates to include an extra semester of liberal arts studies with mandatory civics and logic.

@@carolmeehan1561 one or two percent is not a big enough chunk for me. That's as much as we're going to get. Do the math.
