In an election season rife with drama, the roar of anxious conservatives echoes through the social media halls as they voice their concerns over possible shifts in voter support. The specter of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. siphoning votes away from Donald Trump in Michigan has many fretting excessively. Some are jokingly considering crowdfunding bail money for any well-meaning conservative who might feel the urge to march on the capital in chaotic protest if that scenario plays out.
The comments section has turned into a virtual limbo for those grappling with their feelings about the current state of affairs. One observer humorously contemplated the sure misery of watching political pundits like Jake Tapper. It would seem that some would prefer a bout of dysentery over enduring another minute of Tapper’s grim-faced reporting on the unfolding election calamities. Perhaps Tapper is now the unofficial mascot of election-related despair; after all, misery loves company.
Meanwhile, the Left—ever beholden to their high horse—is already experiencing the traditional floundering as they flail about for someone to blame when things go awry. One panelist from The Young Turks was throwing Kamala Harris under the bus for not swooping in to save the day with a missed interview opportunity. It was unintentional comedy at its finest, showcasing how even supposed heavyweights can’t seem to find the right game plan when the political winds shift against them.
In the midst of this political circus, Ohio’s newly minted senator-elect, Bernie Moreno, expressed the common sentiment many conservatives have sympathized with: frustration over being treated like second-class citizens. Moreno’s declaration of a “red, white, and blue wave” serves as a rallying cry for those tired of being dismissed and derided by the prevailing political elite. One can almost feel the palpable enthusiasm as supporters cheer him on, cheering for resistance to the fatigue of being relegated to the sidelines.
As the clock ticks on vote counting in critical states, the underlying unease is palpable among conservatives. Comments suggesting that tabulating absentee ballots could be a drawn-out affair only add to their apprehension. Many are watching with bated breath, anticipating the debate-ridden fallout reminiscent of past elections. With ballot counting and various speculations in the air, this election has become the wild west of modern political battles, where anything seems possible—and where the stakes have never been higher.
