We’ve spent four years working to take Donald Trump down. We didn’t even know if it was possible. We didn’t care about the specifics of how he lost, we just focused on making sure he lost. Now he’s hours from losing. We’ve won. Sort out the details later. We took Trump down.

We just spent four years fighting a war against nazis and the kremlin. It got ugly enough that they literally seized the presidency. But we fought like hell and we’ve finally won the war. Things aren’t suddenly pretty after you win a war; you have painfully rebuild. Never easy.

I’ve spent four years explaining that we had to approach this with a war mindset. In war, both sides lose badly. The winner is the side that’s still standing after the other side has fallen. Trump is about to fall. This is a somber time, but it certainly isn’t a time for moping.
