Phil Bredesen Supporters Threaten on Twitter to Leave Tennessee

Some of Phil Bredesen’s most ardent supporters are so furious over his election loss Tuesday they’re threatening to pack up and leave Tennessee forever, according to public posts they’ve made on social media.

According to those posts, some of them are sounding the alarm to progressive thinkers all around the country and warning them never to move to the Volunteer State.

Some of them were quite candid over their disgust with Marsha Blackburn and the people who voted for her.

If you voted for Blackburn, more than a few of them said, then your mother most likely works in a profession of ill repute — but that’s just the polite version of what they actually said.

Their exact quotes on the matter are unsuitable for print and do not meet The Tennessee Star’s content standards.

These angry people also like to use the F-word — a lot.

The Star, however, will only embed the family-friendly posts.

Yes, Every Kid

To politely paraphrase what Twitter user “thedarthsarah,” said in her (very) early morning tweet, she wants to leave the state — now.

Facebook user Mia Sagara, meanwhile, said she’s on her way out, because Bredesen lost.

“I’ve never had any kind of + expectations for TN, ever,” Sagara said.

“I’m definitely outa here before 2020.”

Facebook user Kendra Estes, meanwhile, said she wants to “thrive in a more enlightened part of the country.”

“In the meantime, I have to hold on to the hope that my place in the trenches will make a difference,” Estes said.

“I will not go quietly.”

Some of the vitriolic posts about Blackburn came from people who are apparent Taylor Swift groupies, who take everything the singer says as gospel.

Another angry Twitter user, SolPanozzo9, had no problem expressing herself the day after the election.

“Good morning to everyone!!!” SolPanozzo9 wrote.

“Except for those who voted for Marsha Blackburn.”

Singer Sheryl Crow, meanwhile, tweeted “Blackburn ran a disgusting and vindictive campaign, in the tradition of Trump.”

Nashville resident Jim Wohlgemuth, who affiliates himself with the leftist Veterans for Peace Chapter 089, said in a Facebook thread the people of Tennessee are too stupid to know what’s in their own best interests.

“We have to educate all the groups and organizations…we have to share…and then the Democrats have to run someone exciting…someone that will capture the imagination of the young and marginalized,” Wohlgemuth said.

“Tennessee has to have an Alexandria Ocasio Cortez or someone similar who can shake things up. But they have to be found now before January.”

    Problem, liberals never follow through on the leaving.

  6. Dan

    I’m so sick of hearing the word marginalized that I could puke. There are no marginalized in Tennessee or the USA. The “marginalized” are those who’ve been indoctrinated with the anti-American demofascists’ inhuman spirit of victimology.

  7. Gail

    It would be nice to have all liberals and Dems leave Tennessee. It would be a better place.

    There are 4 interstates leading out of the state, so there’s really no excuse. I suggest air travel, however, it’s much faster.

    My wife and I just moved from California to Tennessee. Property values are one third the price in California, property taxes are less than 20% those in California, income taxes are non-existent here versus 9-11% there, gasoline is a dollar less per gallon here, plastic bags and straws have not been outlawed in Tennessee, just to name a few differences from a liberally versus conservatively managed state. Be careful what you wish for progressive thinkers.
