The Left are not coping well with the fact Donald Trump is now President again. Not at all. In some sense, this writer gets it: they were told Kamala Harris was a sure thing, she had all the momentum, the polls showed her ahead, etc.
Yeah ... and being the infantile morons that they are, they stupidly believed all that nonsense. Oh well ...
But the reality was, she was never going to win.
Doesn't stop them from engaging in some major wishcasting, though.
Like The New Yorker, who posted about the issue that would've been had Kamala won:
The New Yorker (@NewYorker) ~ “Kamala,” by Kadir Nelson, would have been the cover of the November 18, 2024, issue of The New Yorker, had Kamala Harris had won the election. Read about the cover that never was: http://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/xSz9Wd
They write:
The portrait above, “Kamala,” painted by Kadir Nelson, would have been the cover of the November 18, 2024, issue of The New Yorker—that is, if Kamala Harris had won the election on November 5th. Instead, late that evening, when it became clear that the vote was going the other way, it was swapped out for a silhouette of soon-to-be President Donald Trump, drawn quickly by Barry Blitt (who is also the artist behind the January 20, 2025, cover about the Inauguration).
Their picture of Cackles even had a little plug for Governor Hair Gel ...

Terry (@terrybythebay) ~ Maybe you folks can focus on your writing skills; you're an embarrassment to the brand.
Jon Gabriel (@exjon) ~ Here's the cover they used instead: “Back with a Vengeance,” by Barry Blitt.
Bonchie (@bonchieredstate) ~ Everyone point and laugh at this self-indulgent tripe that never was.
The Dank Knight (@capeandcowell) ~ Her loss was so brat.
So brat.
Veni! Vidi! Memi! (@venividimemi) ~ {Replying to @NewYorker} You should be well beyond the denial phase of grief at this point.
They are not beyond the denial phase.
JWF (@JammieWF) ~ {Replying to @NewYorker} Oh well. She's gone.
Thank goodness.
