About

"On November 9th…" refers to a series of jokes on Twitter mocking a tweet by radio host and former American Congressman Joe Walsh in which Walsh implied that if Donald Trump lost the 2016 United States Presidential Election on November 8th, then the following day, he would take part in armed rebellion against the United States government.

Origin

On October 26th, 2016,[1] Walsh tweeted: "On November 8th, I'm voting for Trump. On November 9th, if Trump loses, I'm grabbing my musket. You in?" The tweet, shown below, gained nearly 2,900 retweets and 5,000 likes in less than 24 hours.

Spread

Walsh insisted that his tweet meant he would be participating in "protesting" and "civil disobedience,"[2] but the majority of replies took Walsh's tweet to mean he was ready to lead an armed insurrection against the United States Government. It spawned a series of jokes mocking the futility of Walsh's supposed proposal armed insurrection, such as the one by @DJDadMCMom[3] shown below.

The tweet also spawned a series of jokes copying the format of Walsh's original tweet, in which users tweeted jokes about what they'd be doing on November 8th and November 9th. New York Magazine[4] picked up the spread of the jokes.

Trump supporters are like a modern fandom now: they have their own obnoxious minority doing stupid shit every day to ruin their reputation, effectively making people not take them as a whole seriously anymore.

I guess Butters was right:
