50 Of The Best Reactions People Had To Trump Losing The Election
Donald Trump won more than 71 million votes, the second-highest total in American history. Nationally, he has more than a 47% share of his vote and has an extraordinary hold over large swathes of this country that has brought a near cult-like devotion among many of his supporters. But he still lost the election to Joe Biden. This defeat makes Trump one of only four incumbents in the modern era not to get another four years. He also has become the first president to lose the popular vote in consecutive US elections.
He refused to accept the result, accusing media outlets that called the race for Joe Biden of colluding with the president-elect in trying to steal the White House. The voters, however, did not. Everyone from celebrities to Internet meme pages has been sharing their reactions to the race both in the streets and online, and many of these thoughts are definitely worthwhile. Here are some of them.

With his triumph, Biden, who turns 78 later this month, fulfilled his decades-long ambition in his third bid for the White House, becoming the oldest person elected president.
The result also provided a historical moment for Biden's running mate, Senator Kamala Harris of California, who will become the first woman to serve as vice president.
On Saturday night, Biden appeared in front of supporters at a drive-in rally in Wilmington, Delaware, and claimed the presidency and called on the country to reunite after what he described as a toxic political interlude.
Donald Trump, on the other hand, could lose more than just the presidency. Twitter has confirmed that if Trump leaves office, he will no longer receive special treatment as a "newsworthy individual".
Twitter's policy around what the company calls newsworthiness protects certain people — such as elected officials with more than 250,000 followers — from having their accounts suspended or banned for rule infractions that would lead average users to severe penalties.
Only issue here is that "Empire" is, by far the best movie. So I guess this does not work...
Look at it from a word-play perspective only...

see how biden and obama are smiling....its from the absence of guilt
Very apt analogy... except Trump just imagined he was 'all powerful' and in charge of an empire.
Yes, but who the hell will the republicans cast to appear in The Force Awakens? Who will be Snoke 4 years from now? Or will Trump reappear like Palpatine having spent all the intervening time assembling an army of Maga stormtroopers?
I meant this comment to go on the prior post where someone said, "Pence snuck off." Everything I wrote still holds true. I had started calling Pence, " Tuppence". An English term for money used in the movie " Mary Poppins" during the song "Feed the Birds". A poor woman is selling bird seed and she entreated us to, "Feed the birds." Asking passersby to purchase her birdseed for, " Tuppence, a bag." Two cents a bag. Not much. That's Pence. Not much.
Who noticed? Pence never gave a two- penny damn about stopping a madman at the wheel. I'm almost more disgusted and angry at Pence, than I am at Trump. Trump has some severe mental illnesses and disorders. What's Pence's excuse? Cowardice? I don't give one red cent for Pence, or his opinions. He could've stopped Trump and been a hero, making history. Instead, he ducked down, kept quiet, and hid, hoping he wouldn't be noticed, and that his door post would remain unmarked. He took a vow to defend America and her People from its enemies, both foreign, and domestic. Instead of defending us, he did nothing except watch as hundreds of thousands of American's died, and millions became sick and lost their jobs, and homes. Trump is straight up insane. Pence is worse. He is nothing.
I feel like they SHOULD be charecteres in star wars! (Though Trump wouldnt be a very good actor, no offense)
Noooo, Return of the Jedi was Darth Vader returning to the light side of the force. This would only make sense if Donald Trump became a 'jedi.' However, since the plural of 'jedi' is just 'jedi' I guess it could work? And why does Trump have a neck and Obama and Biden don't? ...I think I like Star Wars a little too much...
This is stupid. I didn't like either choice honestly, and people only voted for Biden because of Trump, but they act like Biden will be the best president ever. May or may not be better than Trump, who knows, but they act like he will be God of this earth. I don't like his views., but we can only see if he can run this country.
well the jedi is at least less of a shithole than CARDI B ''the ILLETIRATE RAPPER''!!
Obama was not a new hope that is mis information at best. Obama seperated families at the border and actually built those cages, Obamacare making the cost of everything greater amount other things, his wife straving our kids at school, and 54% of people polled per CNN say that Obama made race relations worse. That is just to name a few.
That first tweet is a bot. There are hundreds exactly like it with some variant, sometimes it says "I'm moving to Alaska" "I'm moving to Hawaii" Congrats on not knowing all of your own States in your own country
Yeah, Trump’ll probably lock himself in the White House, board up the windows, and use all of his supporters as a human shield.
I just hope he wil be remembered for what he was : a lying, racist, sexist, mysoginist, colluding rampant slug.
If anyone hasn't seen Chappelle's SNL appearance, I really recommend it. "I would implore everybody who's celebrating today to remember, it's good to be a humble winner. Remember when I was here four years ago, remember how bad that felt? Remember that half the country right now still feels that way,"
I LOVE how people have reinvented the Barack/Joe meme with Kamala!! Oh happy day!! LOL
Edit: while this tweet is fake and made for meme purposes only, the event was not fake.
Wait, wouldn't it be the first term because the second term technically didn't happen?
