Amazon pulled Brian Williams out of media exile on Tuesday to helm their election night coverage and when it became clear that Donald Trump would win, he proved not much has changed since his MSNBC days. Williams must have spent his exile in cave because he claimed that Republicans win because they have become “stone cold killers,” while Democrats are just “student council presidents” who are recycling nerds and if Democrats want to win again, this needs to change.

Fellow former MSNBC-er Abby Huntsman explained what Democrats are going to do next, “You always have a full autopsy, Brian, whenever you figure out if you lose it, what did we do wrong?”

 

 

Williams concurred, “The only thing we knew for certain heading into tonight was the party on the losing end would have to strip down, do an autopsy, do an assessment, look at their bench. Look at what they did wrong.”

Having his own idea on what that autopsy should say, Williams continued, “I've always said something culturally which is simplistic, flip, and half-comical, but half-serious, and that is constitutionally, culturally, Democrats tend to be former student council presidents, earnest recycling enthusiasts, Republicans in the modern era in politics have been stone cold killers and that's just it, and I think that'll be interesting to see who the killer Dems are because this is the era of hardball.”

Seriously? Democrats impeached Trump twice, filed tens of criminal charges against him, their nominee for president called him a fascist, they claimed women will die if Trump wins, encouraged them to lie to their husbands, played the race card non-stop, and warned that democracy itself was on the ballot while some of them tried to kick Trump off the ballot.

If that is the lesson Democrats learn from their autopsy, they can expect to be writing more of them in the near future.
