Top Democrats did not react to Donald Trump’s crushing win in the Iowa caucuses on Monday with the dismay that might have been expected. Instead, the victory of the twice-impeached, 91-times criminally charged former president was heralded as an early beginning to the battle for the White House itself.

Called early, Trump’s victory came by 30 points over the hard-right Florida governor, Ron DeSantis, who edged the former South Carolina governor Nikki Haley for second. Only one of 99 Iowa counties did not go for Trump: Johnson county, which includes the University of Iowa, was won by Haley, the relative moderate left in the race – by a single vote.

Responding to Trump’s win, and using an acronym for Trump’s campaign slogan, “Make America great again”, Biden told followers: “Here’s the thing: this election was always going to be you and me versus extreme Maga Republicans. It was true yesterday and it’ll be true tomorrow.”

    Hillary sucked ass and was given that opportunity over folks the public wanted more. Democrats absolutely shouldn’t have “super” delegates.

    That being said hopefully most reasonable folks know how dangerous the narcissistic orange fuck wit really is, he won Iowa but only got 51% of votes so I’m hoping he’s a product of gross mass media and loses as badly as his criminal defense is in any case against him.

    I’m definitely voting against bootleg Hitler regardless of who’s running against him. Fuck the Orange vengeance thirst turd.
