An unexpected development following President-elect Trump’s electoral victory last month is the uncharacteristic calm from the normally fire-breathing Democrats who got trounced by the man they swore was Hitler incarnate.

Amazon — founded by Jeff Bezos — and billionaire Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta just donated $1 million each for Trump to have an inauguration party and … nothing. Not a sound from scores of workers at either company who would typically resign, write open letters denouncing their employer, or otherwise whine anonymously to the New York Times or Bezos’ own newspaper, the Washington Post. That’s pretty much been the case nationwide, too.

To be sure, there were plenty of fun social media posts on TikTok and elsewhere featuring demented Kamala supporters breaking down in tears of rage over their defeat. But it didn’t last long. To the contrary, initial news reports maintain there isn’t anything forming that might amount to a legitimate Resistance 2.0.

That’s not to say Trump’s second term won’t inevitably run into a wall of media-generated hysteria. It will. They’re not going to voluntarily leave an opening for J.D. Vance to cement the MAGA legacy. But for now, not a creature is stirring (other than whatever sits crookedly atop Joy Reid’s head).
