Democrats have alternate definitions for everything, which is one of the reasons why they are so full of crap. After failing to convict President Trump for a second time in a sham impeachment trial, the jackass party is spinning it as a dramatic success. The democrats literally gave themselves a participation trophy in their latest colossal flop.
Following the first failed attempt to convict Trump last year, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi tried to spin her loss by claiming the President was, “impeached forever.” This go around, many more democrats are getting in on redefining what it means to lose. This is dumbest guy in Congress, Ted Lieu, being a delusional loser:
As a minority of Senate Republicans try to explain their votes, we know this:
-57 Senators found Trump incited an insurrection, the largest bipartisan conviction vote ever
-In most contexts, 57 to 43 is not close
-We cemented Trump’s destructive & dishonorable conduct in history https://t.co/uWTREw3QOo— Ted Lieu (@tedlieu) February 14, 2021
History remembers wins and losses. The democrats are 0-2 and Trump is the undisputed champion of beating their asses.
Shifty Adam Schiff also believes their failure was somehow a historic win:
The House Managers upheld their oaths with skill and passion.
Our eternal thanks to @RepRaskin, @RepDianaDeGette, @davidcicilline, @JoaquinCastrotx, @RepSwalwell, @RepTedLieu, @StaceyPlaskett, @RepJoeNeguse and @RepDean.

The case they made was them playing a deceptively edited video and falsifying social media posts. That won’t even stand the test of this weekend.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer tried to frame his party’s epic failure as a stain on Donald Trump’s legacy:
My fellow Americans—Remember January 6
The panic and gunshots, hateful and racist Confederate Flag in the Capitol, screams of a bloodied officer, Capitol Police Officers who lost their lives, how close democracy came to ruin
Let it live in infamy—Trump’s final terrible legacy
— Chuck Schumer (@SenSchumer) February 13, 2021
Not a single Capitol Police Officer lost his or her life because of the Capitol protests, let alone officers (plural). There was only one gun shot and that was a Capitol Police officer shooting an unarmed woman and maybe that didn’t even happen. The closest democracy came to ruin on January 6, was when the leftist Buffalo Guy possibly took a dump in Nancy Pelosi’s office.
Speaking of which, Pelosi handed out the participation trophy to the losers of her party:
The Congress and Country can take great pride in the House Impeachment Managers, who defended our Constitution & Democracy with a moving presentation demonstrating love of country and loyalty to our oath and the facts. https://t.co/d4GbNemR3Z

Be proud of losing. It’s like winning only different.
Nobody however was more delusional about this loss than House impeachment manager Jamie Raskin:
On Meet the Depressed, host Chuck Todd asked, “Do you feel like this was a success or do you feel like because you failed to convict that you can’t look at it any other way than a failure.”
Yo gotta love the unbiased liberal media. Todd literally asked if the democrats failure was a failure or a success. Surprise, Raskin thinks it was the latter:
“I think it was a dramatic success in historic terms,” replied Raskin.
After reluctantly admitting that the impeachment trial was a failure, Raskin then explained how losing is winning:
“I think we successfully prosecuted and convicted him in the court of public opinion and the court of history.
That’s an awful lot of high-fiving from a group of people who just had their asses handed to them. Again.
In the democrats’ defense, they don’t actually know what winning without cheating looks like, so that may explain the confusion here.
