You've Just Lost an Election; What Are You Going to do Now?

As The Colorado Sun reports via its Unaffiliated newsletter, Sen. Cory Gardner (R-Yuma) already has some post-election plans:

Ten days after the election Republican U.S. Sen. Cory Gardner is hosting a fundraiser at Disney World for his Project West PAC, according to his campaign. It’s an annual event.

It’s nice that Gardner can take his family on a Disney World vacation on somebody else’s dime, but this doesn’t seem like it has the makings of a particularly successful event.

In general, we’re not sure we’d want to go to Florida itself anytime soon with the way COVID-19 cases are spiking — let alone rubbing shoulder to shoulder with a bunch of people at a theme park to wait in line for “Splash COVID in Your Mouth Mountain.” And are there a lot of people who want to go to Disney World to write a check to a PAC controlled by a guy who lost a high-profile Senate race a week earlier?

If you just feel like lighting some money on fire, there are plenty of other bumbling organizations that will take your check.
