The GOP clinched major victories in two special elections held on Tuesday but was largely ignored by the mainstream media.

During Rush’s show the Democrat in California had not yet conceded. We were all expecting weeks and weeks of ballot harvesting. So Rush would not have jumped the gun on a victory lap.

I’m sure all of the Dem consultants today will be soiling their diapers and screaming at Den governors to get off the lockdowns.

Maybe when they face off again in November, the rat 🐀 bastard democrats won’t concede as quickly. We shall see.

If Republicans can start playing offense again, they’ll win a few more that cannot be ignored. Maybe then they will cease whining about how mean the Democrats are.
