The Democrats had a couple of main narratives heading into the midterm elections.
One was "Trump's going to try to cancel the elections or won't accept the results."
That was of course a lie.
Bret Baier asks Trump if he's going to accept the election results, which are devastating for Trump's party. "Yeah, sure, I'll accept them," Trump says.

The Democrats were lying? No way! Trump's the worst "King" and "dictator" of all time.
Another Democrat line of BS heading into the election was concerns about "affordability," including gas prices.
Nobody who hasn't been living off the grid and in a cave for the last few decades can possibly believe the Democrats care about lower energy prices. We were awake for moments like this:
The incredible irony of this election is Dems winning largely on higher gas prices…when they’ve done everything they could to raise gas prices when in power.

Remember before that when Obama said energy prices would "necessarily skyrocket"?
Now that the election is over, the Democrats are making it obvious that "affordability" was a ruse. Here's how the Democrats will "lower costs":

Abdul El-Sayed, who also partly campaigned on "lower gas prices" while pretending to not be close with "a streamer in California," will no doubt start palling around with this guy again:
WE'RE GONNA PUT YOUR ASS IN JAIL EVERYONE GET MORE WOKE RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is everybody who voted blue happy with the Democrat plan to "lower costs" yet?
They just want free healthcare and lower gas prices, y’all.

All I'm I know is that the Democrats will misread what happened yesterday and go even crazier, and in two years we'll have to make sure voters let them know they overplayed their hand (because they will).
Like I said the other week. Swing voters chose Dems to reign in the perceived chaos of the Trump admin and bring down prices. What they’ll get is impeachment and lawfare against Republicans.

I have seen two dozen or so tweets like this. Any voter remorse? This was never about your pocketbook. It was about power. And they wield it over you, just like they’re gonna wield it in Congress.

Broke: high gas prices Woke: even higher gas prices with constant subpoenas, impeachment hearings and riots

Those costs feel lower already!
