Democrats who campaigned on the need for "joy" and "saving democracy" are strikingly unjoyful about the results of the democratic process in 2024.

Before the election, slips like the one of President Joe Biden calling Trump supporters "garbage" were immediately denied or deflected. But once voters had given the Republicans control of both houses of Congress, the popular vote and the White House, leading Democratic figures and celebrities have dropped all pretense of civility. They are now being open about their contempt for voters, calling them "f----ing morons" and "arrogant, ignorant" adolescents.

After calling for Americans to come together for Kamala Harris, MSNBC's Joy Reid sent out a heart-warming holiday message to those who voted for the GOP to "make your own dinner, MAGA. Make your own sandwiches, wipe your own tears."

Those not wallowing in Reid's anger are increasingly voicing themes of isolation, insurrection and secession.

For years, the contempt for Trump voters has been open and obvious in much of the media. The "Let's Go Brandon" movement captured the lunacy of the press and politicians simply denying what citizens could see, hear and experience for themselves.

When asked for answers on issues like the economy and immigration, Harris paraded an army of celebrities to tell the public how to vote — shiny objects that they thought would be enough for shallow American voters.

They were wrong. Now that the public has made its choice, leading figures are condemning the majority of voters as a mix of misogynists, self-haters and fascists. Whoopi Goldberg, 69, even joined the "4B" sex strike against men. Others seem to be morphing into exactly what they said Trump would become as........
