Call it a blue wave, blue tsunami, blue-nami, bloodbath, extinction-level event, flood, landslide, obliteration, once in a generation, once in a lifetime, rebuke, rejection, repudiation. Whatever, @sbg1 writes, "This was more clear than Trump’s 2018 midterm defeat, more clear even than his ouster in 2020." newyorker.com/news/letter-fr…
Donald Trump’s Repudiation, America’s Revenge in the Midterms

Donald Trump’s Repudiation, America’s Revenge in the Midterms

Even J. D. Vance admits that the righteous blue wave in the midterms wasn’t a result of Republicans failing to show up—it’s that they showed up for the Democrats.

Overturned elections. Attacks on police. A demolished East Wing. A new war. Trump has already done what no one imagined. Don’t wait to see what’s next.

July-August 2015 edition of “The Village Voice” – shortly after Trump began his 2016 presidential bid – revisited historic 1979 reporting by Wayne Barrett, which covered Trump’s shady deal-making on earlier NY city projects.
