When it comes down to it (assuming we are not headed for a coup and a civil war), the Democrats have won the White House, picked up at least 2 Senate seats and kept their House majority.

What they didn't do was knock off Republican incumbents in either deep red states (which TX still is and SC, KS, MT and IA always will be) or bluish/purplish states (ME and NC) in which they had sub-optimal candidates.
Is that really a terrible disappointment?

They have also lost some House seats in districts that had no business electing Democrats in the first place. A huge pro-Trump turnout was no doubt the reason. They failed to flip some state legislatures, for the same reason.
They lost Florida, which, admit it, is a red state.

In other words, they didn't do as well as the polls indicated, and we are mad because, honestly, the polls have never been wrong before, yes?
Settle down already. Trump wreaks havoc on polls. Racism is unpollable. It should have been expected.
Enjoy the W and stop fighting.
