Wednesday Short Cuts

Notable quotables from Joy Reid, David Axelrod, Van Jones, David Harsanyi, and more.

Non Compos Mentis

“Donald Trump has won — and American democracy is now in grave danger.” —Vox

“Donald Trump is an anti-democratic force, but he’s just been elected democratically in our country.” —MSNBC’s Jen Psaki

“Russia again attacked a US election. To help Trump. This should be a big deal.” —MSNBC analyst David Corn

“I am mystified in some ways simply because we’re talking about a twice-impeached, four-times-indicted, convicted-on-34-felony-counts former president.” —PBS News commentator Jonathan Capehart

“There were appeals to racism in this campaign …. and there is sexism in this country, and anybody who thinks that that did not in any way impact on the outcome of this race is wrong.” —former Obama adviser David Axelrod

“Black voters came through for Harris; white women voters did not. … This will be the second opportunity that white women in this country have to change the way that they interact with the patriarchy.” —MSNBC’s Joy Reid

“Nothing that was true yesterday about how flawlessly this [Harris] campaign was run is not true now. I mean, this really was an historic, flawlessly run campaign.” —Joy Reid

“If you’re a parent of a trans kid, your child’s face was used as a springboard to power for somebody.” —CNN’s Van Jones

For the Record

“I don’t want to hear ‘racism’ and ‘sexism.’ It’s ‘eyesight’ and ‘hearing.’” —Kellyanne Conway

“So Trump is on pace to do better than 2020 in every state and Kamala is coming nowhere near Joe Biden’s ‘81 million’ votes. If we had an honest media a ton of them would be asking how that’s possible.” —Clay Travis

“Pretty incredible when you think about how the entire corporate media was singularly focused over the last 4 years on destroying Trump, in tandem with most of the federal gov’t, the state of New York, as well as various assassins, & not only did Trump win, but he’s going to win an even more commanding victory than in 2016. We’ve proven the machine can no longer control us.” —Tom Elliott

“This is as big or bigger than my father’s 1984 Landslide. Trump broke and then rebuilt the Party to move it into the future.” —Michael Reagan

“Kamala thought she could campaign exclusively on the ability to kill children and win. It didn’t work.” —Allie Beth Stuckey

“Kamala Harris got fewer women voters than Joe Biden. The gender gap narrative also went up in smoke.” —Katie Pavlich

“Tim Walz was a terrible choice.” —Guy Benson

“Florida has counted 7 million votes in 45 minutes. It can be done.” —Cabot Phillips

“I’m happy Amendment 4 failed in Florida, but direct democracy ballot measures are still unAmerican and should be done away with.” —David Harsanyi

Belly Laugh of the Day

“There is no reason Kamala can’t still go on Rogan.” —Frank J. Fleming
