"I guess I didn't do enough phonebanking for Joe, time to take some responsibility."
This man is asking San Antonio residents, many with families who have lived there for 500 years, to quit their jobs and carry their families across the nation to an uncertain future because Texas votes 47-52 but he lives in Michigan where it was 50-48.
And I guess next time, if a few thousand votes go the other way in Michigan, they’ll have to move again.
Infuriating to see people who were supposedly livid at Trump for calling brown countries shitholes are now literally calling Houston and San Antonio shitholes.

It needs to be LOUDLY emphasized that this is a lie. Wind and solar power actually overperformed expected winter capacity in Texas. The state was crippled by frozen coal and gas plants, knocking out over 30 gigawatts of power. Sources below.
A lot of Twitter today is cheering on the death of elderly minorities as they freeze in their apartment complexes in the most progressive cities in the nation.
The amount of ignorance on display during this crisis is staggering.
LOL wtf is happening, Dogecoin is exploding. Worth a penny and a half at the moment and skyrocketing. Up 88% in an hour!
My theory is that nobody can trade after-hours but they're too amped up and need a fix.
This may look like a fun thing to play around with late at night, but BE CAREFUL. It's insanely volatile. It could collapse in a matter of minutes, or it may shoot through the ceiling. There's no precedent here so nobody can do anything but guess.
I just lived through every right-wing journalist on the planet straight up licking the president's balls for four years but now some unknown NYT editor made a cringey post about having chills over the transfer of power so she has to be fired because it made Greenwald testy? What?
There are no objective journalists. They are all wrapped up in their own ideology and carefully curated personal baggage, Greenwald more so than most.
LOL are you kidding me, this is the most lib thing ever. This tweet is a parody of itself.
