Friday Short Cuts

Notable quotables from Joe Biden, The New York Times, Bernie Sanders, Jimmy Kimmel, and more.

Gaslighting

“Much of the work we’ve done is already being felt by the American people, but the vast majority of it … will be felt over the next 10 years.” —Joe Biden

Delusions of Grandeur

“It’s been a historic presidency.” —Joe Biden

Non Compos Mentis

“All Americans should now be wary of an incoming Trump administration that is likely to put a top priority on amassing unchecked power and punishing its perceived enemies, both of which Mr. Trump has repeatedly vowed to do.” —The New York Times editorial board

“This was a conquering of the nation not by force but with a permission slip. Now, America stands on the precipice of an authoritarian style of governance never before seen in its 248-year history.” —The New York Times’s Lisa Lerer

“This guy got 50%! OK? You could make the argument Hitler never got 33[%]. OK? This is — this is frightening that we would get here.” —Democrat strategist James Carville

“A lot of folks are wondering, why would Latinos vote for Donald Trump if that means he might deport abuela, he might deport members of their household? … A lot of folks are asking on the Democratic side, why would they do this to themselves?" —CNN’s Jim Acosta

"We now are just another one in the list of countries that has decided to, you know — ‘Hey, what the heck? Let’s try the strong man thing. Let’s let democracy go. Let’s put in an all-powerful guy instead. See how it goes.’” —MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow

“It’s a pure Project 2025 in miniature in Florida. [S]ort of extremist right-wing, fascist-type government in Florida.” —MSNBC’s Joy Reid

Friendly Fire

“It should come as no great surprise that a Democratic Party which has abandoned working-class people would find that the working class has abandoned them.” —Senator Bernie Sanders (Except that Democrats were never the party of the worker…)

“[The Democrat Party] still considers itself the party of the working class but approaches non-college folks — people who work with their hands, their back — as sort of as missionaries. And the message is, ‘We’re here to help you become more like us.’ And there’s a message of unspoken — and unintended, I think — disdain that was felt.” —former Obama adviser David Axelrod

Village Idiot

“It was a terrible night for everyone who voted against [Trump], and guess what? It was a bad night for everyone who voted for him, too. You just don’t realize it yet.” —"comedian" Jimmy Kimmel

Belly Laugh of the Day

“We owe loyalty not to a president or a party, but to the Constitution of the United States, and loyalty to our conscience and to our God. My allegiance [is] to all three.” —Kamala Harris

For the Record

“Asked by a friendly interviewer whether she would have done anything differently from President Biden, Harris said, ‘Not a thing that comes to mind.’ This is why she lost.” —Larry Elder

“Harris couldn’t even get 1% support from her own party in 2020. Installing her as the candidate four months from the election, and crafting a campaign about ‘vibes’ and her gender and ethnic background to cover for her inability to articulate a single coherent policy position, was madness. Democrats deserved to lose.” —Laura Hollis

“A woman, and a Black man, got the popular vote in three consecutive elections. But somehow, the fact that Kamala Harris was unable to convince voters that she was a qualified leader had to be due to her race and her gender. It’s the woke, liberal fiat that it can’t be anything having to do with the resume or character of the candidate. It must be prejudice.” —Christine Flowers

“For the people sending me numerous death threats ever since I stood onstage at the RNC, you’re not going to intimidate me, you’re not going to bully me, I’m not walking away, and I’m not shutting up. … We have a nation to save, and I’m here to serve in whatever capacity President Trump needs me.” —former Acting ICE Director Tom Homan

And Last…

“President Trump’s leadership tells our adversaries not to screw around with Americans. And that creates the deterrence that we desperately need.” —former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo
