They won’t be throwing candies in her face.

I feel like our ancestors are rejoicing.
For the first time, a Black and South Asian woman has been elected Vice President of the United States.
My sister has made history and blazed a trail for future generations to follow.
We love you, @KamalaHarris.

4 year nightmare over.
More like the end of a horror movie, I’d say, in which Donald Trump played Frankenstein’s monster, Vlad Dracula or somesuch.

On a related note, don’t forget that Trump’s Twitter ban protection will end the moment he leaves office…
Trump books Monty Python for Campaign Termination Manager:
“@ZackBornstein
I could write jokes for 800 years and I’d never think of something funnier than Trump booking the Four Seasons for his big presser, and it turning out to be the Four Seasons Total Landscaping parking lot between a dildo store and a crematorium.”

40-year nightmare not over for Zimbabweans. I don’t think Biden should take any pleasure in congratulations from President Mnangagwa (aka The Crocodile), who could have taught Trump a thing or two about corruption and abuse of one’s opponents.
Omar, maybe the best take on this:

Meanwhile, our (Slovenian) dumbfuck of a president congratulated Trump on his victory days before the results were even called. :(
Arnaud: Yes. Very good.
I’m glad Biden won. Now can someone tell him not to get handsy with female heads of state?
Richard @ 4 – thank you for the nudge. I deleted that one.
A nice response to Boris Johnson’s funereal tweet of congratulations:
Tommy Vietor, a former Obama press aide, responded to Johnson’s congratulatory tweet last night by calling him a “shapeshifting creep”, adding: “We will never forget your racist comments about Obama and slavish devotion to Trump.”
Reported in The Sunday Times, 8th November.
The original source is Vietor on twitter.

Nice.
In the current New Yorker, “Letter from the UK” by Sam Knight:
Just what I keep saying about Trump.
