"The trip began a day before the election, and Mr. Kerry had confidently predicted a Hillary Clinton victory."

Ah! It was the best of times, it was the best of times. Not a hint that anything could possibly ruin the upbeat mood of what was essentially an Election Day victory lap by Secretary of State John Kerry and his merry band of liberals to the bottom of the world. Fortunately, for the eternal amusement of posterity, New York Times science reporter Justin Gillis was on hand to record the tragicomic scene. First let us begin as he notes the jubilant visitors touring Antarctica avant le déluge orange:

[PJ-Comix]

A trip that began as an election victory lap and ended with them humbly figuring out how to bid welcome to their new Neanderthal overlords.

I'm still hopeful that John Kerry will wish to extend his Antarctic junket indefinitely

[Mr. Douglas]

Hope he finds the Nazi base they used to escape to the moon.

[Sasparilla]

Did Kerry have to be restrained and sedated after the news like Her Heinous was?

[scottinoc]

If only John Kerry had taken a Penguin-English dictionary with him to Antarctica, he would have realized that the cute upright bird he met was telling him to "Make Antarctica Great Again!"

Best. Transition. Ever.

He was flying over the South Pacific toward New Zealand the next day when the results began to come in. His aides rushed around the plane, shocked at some of the states Mrs. Clinton was losing.

If only someone had collected the sweet, sweet nectar of their tears ...

Penguin holds up sign to Kerry:

MAKE ANTARCTICA GREAT AGAIN!
BY LEAVING!......................

[ImNotLying]

John Kerry should move to the land where he shed blood and earned his purple heart..(scratch on his a$$)...VietNam...Maybe he could razz a few people there.

The trip wasn’t a total loss. Kerry registered the penguin to vote in Chicago, LA, and Philadelphia.

[blueunicorn6]

That’s a government airplane.

Was Secretary of State Kerry down there to negotiate a treaty with the penguins?

These Democrat jackasses think they are royalty.

Waste, Fraud and Abuse.

He and his aides plan to welcome the Trump appointees who will soon run the State Department, hoping to build relationships with them and, possibly, persuade them to keep some of Mr. Kerry’s diplomatic deals.

January 20, 2016, 12:01. Former Secretary Kerry, all of his aides and assistants are escorted out of the building by US Marshals. They are allowed to each carry out one small cardboard box with their shit in it.

Their ID badges and security cards are seized, and all access to state.gov computer systems is revoked.

I laughed, I cried, it became a part of me.

Democrats always milk the taxpayer one last time for their goodbye trips.

Remember Hillary’s ‘Round-The-World trip when she left the state dept.?

[hadaclueonce]

Kerry is poster boy for “The Swamp.”

[dead]

The awful memory of this trip is seared, seared into his mind.

[Stormdog]

“The trip wasn’t a total loss. Kerry registered the penguin to vote in Chicago, LA, and Philadelphia.”

Then killed him and registered him democrat.

[HIDEK6]

Democrats always milk the taxpayer one last time for their goodbye trips.

That's like taking all your vacation time right before you quit your job.

[toast]

Sounds like a good, neutral site to put the United Nations.
