Far-left Twitch streamer Hasan Piker livestreamed for over 13 hours celebrating Democratic gains in elections.

Hasan Piker, a far-left Twitch streamer, conducted a 13-hour livestream on Tuesday as results came in from elections where Democrats took control of the House and Senate and won several key gubernatorial races. The broadcast drew over 200,000 viewers at its peak, with Piker offering real-time political commentary throughout.

Piker declared 'Trumpism is dying, and I could not feel any better' and suggested 'just imagine a world where Donald Trump is in prison'. He criticised the Republican Party's 'odious agenda' and 'corruption', saying their impact on the American economy was 'finally coming back to bite them'.

Piker expressed satisfaction with the performance of Democratic Socialists of America candidates and their allies on the night. However, he criticised the Democratic Party for running too many moderate candidates, saying 'we should have been running socialists in every primary' and 'straight communists in some of these blue districts'. Both outlets note that it is sometimes unclear whether Piker is exaggerating for effect or trolling his critics.
