phewww!!! now let's get through the next 2-1/2 months without chaos, though we all know he thrives on it.

Contrary Guy said...

Hooray!!!!! And Gritty even makes it that much sweeter!

Thank you! This is a tremendous relief for Americans -- and for our neighbors as well, I'm sure.

Brian Joseph said...

Awesome News! We have had a bad few years. Hopefully the future will be better.

Bringing hope back!

John Going Gently said...

So happy for u x

Lady M said...

It's a relief but we are not out of the woods. For the next four years we need to stand up for President elect Biden because the Trumpanezes will be looking for blood.

anne marie in philly said...

FUCK YEAH WE DID! thanks for your patience, canada; things WILL get better between us!

Mike said...

There was such a collective sigh of relief, the world started spinning a little fast.

Tundra Bunny said...

Congratulations to our American neighbours! A momentous achievement for your country...welcome back to the world!

I almost hope Rump throws a big tantrum on moving day so that the SEAL Team he dissed can have the pleasure of hauling him out of the White House by the scruff of his neck or shooting a big ole tranquilizer dart in his ass... or both, LOL!

DVArtist said...

I am thrilled, of course, but the thing in the white house is fighting it with lies, and court, and what ever else he can come up with. I just wish he and his family would sneak off in the night to some other country. He knows as soon as he is carried out of the WH he will be arrested.

Frank said...

Thanks Debra. I feel like someone who's been held hostage for four years and just got rescued. Our tormentor can't hurt us anymore. (Well he possibly can but I think congress may have the gonads to keep him under control.)

pam nash said...

Thank you Debra - and thank god it's over! It is a heavy weight off America's shoulders!

Guillaume said...

One of my friends said that it was like the longest orgasm ever. I said it was an excruciating tease that could easily be an anticlimax. But the old man did. And I'd never thought a 77 year old man could do this.

bobbie said...

Deb ~ thanks for the great post! And thank you for your comment on my blog ~
You betcha we are celebrating!!!!!

Joanne Noragon said...

Thank you, Debra. This was very special.

Mike said...

... a little fastER! Sheesh, I hate my own typos.

Lisa said...

Better days are ahead. We are so full of hope and joy!

I'm not gonna lie, seeing how the rest of the world celebrated the news had me a bit weepy. It's good to know the good people around the world were willing to save a space for us. I'm sure there's a snarky Churchill quote that would fit perfectly here, but there's a lot of work yet to be done and a lot of people here ready to get to work.

Parnassus said...

Hello Debra, I am sure that your looking out for us had a positive influence on this election. What an anxious nightmare the last four years was, and the relief is now being felt around the world.

miruspeg said...

Yes big congratulations to America.
Now if they can just make it through to 20 January 2021 without Trumpy boy exacting his revenge.
Big hugs all round from down under in Australia.

Kirk said...

It's appropriate that you have Teri Garr from Young Frankenstein. The last four years have seemed like a Mel Brooks parody, but it's the closing credits now.

G. B. Miller said...

Before anyone hyperventilates to a cosmic orgasm of a Harris/biden win, let me give you a very brutal reality check.

The GOP will still have control of the Senate when all is said and done in January. Which means they'll be able to keep the House and the WH in check from implementing some of their more outlandish ideas. They'll probably be the ones voting on using the 25th amendment as well (yes, for those who don't read much, the man had two very serious brain surgeries in the 90's, thus the main reason why he was kept hidden).

You may now continue with your happy dance. :D

Marie Smith said...

A sigh of relief here.

Happy Days!

Ol'Buzzard said...

it is like a calm has settled on most of the country; but we still have to deal with the KKK, Proud Boys, Q Anon, militia and other extreme armed factions on the far right that support Trump and are looking for an excuse to be seen. Soon these groups will again be considered the idiotic extremists they are.

What a relief it is to know that he no longer has his hand anywhere near that nuclear button.

Magaly Guerrero said...

Well, thank you. Thank you very much. 😁🎉🎉

This N That said...

Thanks Deb..What a relief..He has a lot of damage control to take care of...Unfortunately the Republican Senate will limit what he can do..It's always that way..sadly..Appreciate your support..Hugs

Ur-spo said...

It is hoped any budding Trump-like shenanigans sprouting in the Providences are nipped in the bud before it follows what we just went through.

bobbie said...

Lady M ~ your comment on the "Trumpanzees" was spot on!! I'd not heard that one before ~ I love it!

yellowdoggranny said...

thank you my friend for sticking by us for the past 4 year shitshow..'preciate it.

LL Cool Joe said...

Now we just need to get rid of Boris and I'll open the champagne.

Bill Lisleman said...

thanks next step is getting the Electoral College to actually finish the vote. That happens in Dec.

Rommy said...

*yells at the top of my lungs* Philly, Philly!!!

OK, I'm from the Philadelphia suburbs (30 minutes from it's edge, 45 to 60 minutes from points central) but I love that lunatic town.

Rawknrobyn.blogspot.com said...

HAHA. Thank you, thank you, thank you. And it's a big congrats to the world too.

Wish I could say we couldn't have done it without you, but Canada was wise to keep us from pouring across the US-Canada border. That helped us secure this gloriously glorious win!

Again, thank you, Debra.
I'm still in celebratory mode.

Cal's Canadian Cave of Coolness said...

I am seeing way too much of that thug, Gritty these days.

e said...

Such a feeling to know that the nightmare will actually come to an end...

Sixpence Notthewiser said...

Yes, yes, YES!
OMG I never noticed how much I was holding my breath until Joe was declared president-elect.

XOXO

Bohemian said...

Indeed a Debt of Gratitude to PA for Scoring the Game-Winning Goal! Shit, my State {AZ} is still Counting! *LOL* I had Family and Friends that live in other Countries calling me to Congratulate us and say "Welcome Back America"! The entire World is Rejoicing that we ousted this Sociopath Fascist and his Grifter Crew! I can't wait to see the first ever Forcible Eviction from the WH in American History!

Fundy Blue said...

Thanks, Debra! My brother Roy, my sister Donnie, and I had a three-way celebration on Saturday night on FaceTime. It was wonderful. Nova Scotia, Alberta, and Colorado linked like we were at the kitchen table together. Of course, Terry was there too. It was wonderful to feel hope!!! We were giddy with happiness and relief!
