Congratulations to Doug Jones on a hard fought victory. The write-in votes played a very big factor, but a win is a win. The people of Alabama are great, and the Republicans will have another shot at this seat in a very short period of time. It never ends!

1. But he had to throw on the write in line

Never can except a loss

[Pachamama]

2. So he is blaming Republicans who weren't "loyal" and were write-ins?

And what is with the "another shot at this seat in a short period of time" comment?

What never ends????

[onetexan]

16. probably implying write-ins were fake votes

[Pachamama]

19. No - I think its a shot at Richard Shelby...

Who he himself said was doing a write-in

[Laura PourMeADrink]

24. When is Shelby up? I worked for him just before

He switched. Have hated him since then...but have to say good job this time

18. This was a special election to replace Jeff Sessions who won in 2014.

Jones term only runs until the end of Sessions term -2020.

The people of Alabama will do the right thing. Doug Jones is Pro-Abortion, weak on Crime, Military and Illegal Immigration, Bad for Gun Owners and Veterans and against the WALL. Jones is a Pelosi/Schumer Puppet. Roy Moore will always vote with us. VOTE ROY MOORE!

5. he did not write this.

looks like something a pr person posted for him. Right now they have him restrained in a straight jacket while he is foaming at the mouth.

12. My thoughts exactly nt

[kysrsoze]

13. The rage tweets will come EARLY tomorrow morning.

[gratuitous]

17. Yep, his lawyers grabbed his phone again

Trump will be back as usual tomorrow morning. You know he's not up this late.

[uponit7771]

21. +1

[Miles Archer]

23. Oh, of course he didn't

And the reason I didn't flag it as such in my OP is that I knew it would be blindingly obvious.

My guess is Hope Hicks.

He's probably dropping f-bombs, pounding down Diet Cokes, and pacing around in his bathrobe right now.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

25. Ha. He's having a hissy fit sucking his thumb

[Egnever]

6. Weeee!

if they are smart they will wrestle that thing out of his hands.

[bullwinkle428]

7. John Kelly must have gotten control of the Twitter machine tonight!

BOOM!! YOU JUST GOT GINSBURGED!!

[spanone]

8. what else can his ghost tweeter say?

trump got his ass whooped

[madaboutharry]

9. He can not stop being an asshole.

Not for even one tweet. In congratulating Jones, he has to take it back by blaming right in votes and telling him he'll lose next time.

I loathe this loser.

[bearsfootball516]

10. There is absolutely no way he wrote that. That was a staffer.

[AJT]

11. 45 did not write this. We'll hear from the real 45 at some point when he sneaks

a tweet from the bathroom.

[unitedwethrive]

15. Yup, sometime around 5:30am...

[Takket]

14. .

20. I don't think he wrote that!

This was prepared in advance.

I'm sure we'll know 45's true feelings tomorrow - unless this was the final straw for Jared to knock the Presidential Phone off the White House WiFi network.

[Hekate]

22. Someone else wrote that for him

[3catwoman3]

26. Whoever wrote that should have stopped...

...after the first sentence.
