The outgoing president appeared before the media today, showing clear signs that he was despondent and sorrowful after his one-time running mate was handed a crushing defeat at the hands of the American voters.

At publishing time, White House insiders denied rumors of celebratory “hooting and hollering” emanating from the Oval Office.
