2. Sorry Doug, God didn't listen to those prayers

Nice close-out with the implied election denial bullshit. Now just go away...

[Probatim]

7. God doesn't side with Nazis?

That's the message we need to use.

3. I posted this to him on Twitter:

Replying to
@dougmastriano

Although I do not agree with your political views, I still want to say how much I respect your graceful concession. I do respect it, very much.

4. Well done

Civilized behavior is good for civilization. That thing I took for granted pre-Trump.

5. That's about 90% whining

And dissembling. Still better than screaming “fraud, rise up!”

6. We all must consider how difficult this was for him.

8. I'm pretty sure he knew from the getgo that he couldn't win

There wasn't a single poll in Pennsylvania that gave him a chance. At least not among the polls I saw.

11. So true but he had to say it out loud.

10. It was a gracious concession statement

acknowledging the reality. No claim of fraud or calls to overturn the result.

Maybe he will work productively with Shapiro and the potentially Dem state House to improve elections here in the state.
