#ShePersisted: Conservatives on Twitter Mock Democrats, CNN Over Georgia Special Election
Conservative Twitter had some fun at the expense of Democrats over Jon Ossoff‘s defeat in the Georgia special election.
Thanks to everyone who breathlessly and snarkily proclaimed #GA06 as a “referendum on POTUS @realDonaldTrump“.
You were right. #winning

There is only one future for Ossoff now: rotating host on Pod Save America.

Is there a way we can convince Ossoff to run in 2020 for president?

Jon Ossoff looks like the guy you easily beat at tetherball at the JCC Camp.

There is no silver lining for Democrats tonight. This loss is as crushing for them as victory would have been vindicating. https://t.co/q6xAXEugHr

YESTERDAY on @CNN: Tomorrow’s a “referendum on President Trump and his agenda”
TONIGHT on @CNN: Dems “need to run better candidates”#GA06

Looks like sad CNN pundits/journos will be doing a lot of downward dogs tonight to recover from #GA06 ? https://t.co/zczN76Wv1S

President Trump took the high road and simply congratulated Republican candidate Karen Handel.
Congratulations to Karen Handel on her big win in Georgia 6th. Fantastic job, we are all very proud of you!
