Let Us Frolic In This Bath Of Right-Wing Tears, Alabama Senate Election Edition

Goodnight Alt-Right



As you might imagine, there has been quite the variety of hot takes coming from conservatives today, following Democrat Doug Jones’s defeat of Roy Moore in Alabama.

Some of are blaming Mitch McConnell for not standing by their man.

Some are claiming victory from the jaws of defeat, knowing that Roy Moore would have been a real bad look for them anyway.

Some are even claiming that the whole thing WAS RIGGED and that Roy Moore did actually win, but that the Establishment Republicans and the Democrats banded together to secure a win for Jones.

And, of course, some are blaming women.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, one of those blaming women (and simultaneously claiming it was all RIGGED) is Andrew Anglin of The Daily Stormer, who had been VERY excited for Moore to win this race.

In a post titled “White Women Dropped The Ball In Alabama,” Anglin whines:



WAAAHHHHHHH! WOMEN CAN VOTE AND I DON’T EVEN GET TO OWN ONE! HOW IS THAT EVEN FAIR?

Anglin, however, is also claiming that the election was RIGGED, citing a TechCrunch article from yesterday about how the Alabama Supreme Court (which, surely, is filled with liberal activist judges) blocked a Montgomery County order to preserve digital voting records.

However, if there were a recount, the paper ballots (not the digitized versions of them) would be what would be counted, and those are kept for 22 months after the election.

So not a very good argument there!

Over on /pol/ there were a lot of tears.





Weird! That reply seems an awful lot like what they were trying to do with Pizzagate, except

we didn’t imagineer Moore’s pedophile scandal ourselves.

And a lot of woman blaming!





Good luck with that!

The alt-right Twitter account McFeels blamed the loss on white voters having not “felt enough pain” yet.




Whatever that means.

Weird Mike Cernovich had been very, very confident that Moore was going to win.



But, naturally, he is now claiming he didn’t care about the election AT ALL and you are dumb for thinking he did!

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLFOOLEDYOU!



Oh yes, we are all addicted to the intoxicating drug that is Weird Mike Cernovich.

Either that or we are genuinely amazed that someone goes around being that terrible all the time.



The Federalist is taking the same tack, largely blaming Mitch McConnell.

The “wisdom” here is that the Establishment Republicans (wrongly) backed Luther Strange instead of the more “populist” but still somewhat “electable” Mo Brooks, and even convinced Trump to do so, assuming he’d win easily over Moore, which turned out not to be the case.

Mo Brooks, they contend, would have won easily against Doug Jones.

And now, finally, TRUMP’S TAKE.

Which is, of course, that he was right all along about Moore not being electable, and also that we have always been at war with East Asia.



Sure. Why not?
