Senate Republicans aghast at Perdue's false election claims in Georgia governor race
CNN +? ^ | 5/10/2022 | By Manu Raju and Alex Rogers

"The election in 2020 was rigged and stolen," Perdue asserted at a recent debate. Perdue's former Senate GOP colleagues, however, are less than impressed.

"It's absurd," said Sen. Mitt Romney of Utah, when asked about the remarks of Perdue, his former colleague. "I think the effort to try and overturn an election when there is, at this stage, no evidence of widespread fraud is detrimental to democracy and insulting to the American public."

"Hell yes," one of Perdue's closest Senate friends told CNN when asked if he was surprised by his ex-colleague's campaign transformation. "I don't know whether he believes it or not. I really don't," said Sen. Kevin Cramer, a North Dakota Republican. "But I'm sure it's a political strategy." Indeed, in his six years in the Senate before losing his reelection bid last year, Perdue was a mainstream Senate Republican member, a business-minded conservative who usually voted with his party.

But Perdue announced his bid in December challenging Georgia GOP Gov. Brian Kemp, blaming Kemp for his and then-Sen. Kelly Loeffler's losses, which cost Republicans the Senate, by arguing that the governor did not do enough to overturn the results. Trump claims Republicans will stay home in November if his pick doesn't win the GOP gubernatorial primary in Georgia. Voters say otherwise Trump claims Republicans will stay home in November if his pick doesn't win the GOP gubernatorial primary in Georgia. Voters say otherwise Former President Donald Trump, who has relentlessly attacked Kemp for his loss in Georgia, endorsed Perdue, falsely asserting that Kemp "allowed massive election fraud to take place."

the STOLEN election was by SOROS and others,
who are Carpetbagger=backstabber Romney’s partners
in both trafficking and stealing elections.

Americans, outside of Utah and Ukraine,
now know that all are guilty of salient treason.

Fox doesn’t have anything on 2000 Mules, neither does CNN+, nor does SeeBS, etc. Must have been pre-bunked. Sarcasm.

As more and more evidence comes forward they like to double down saying there is no evidence. And the media refuses to give the evidence the light of day. I hope it eventually makes it to the people of America.. The more that comes out the harder it is to hide it..

"I think the effort to try and overturn an election when there is, at this stage, no evidence of widespread fraud is detrimental to democracy and insulting to the American public."

Mitt, you moron, it didn't need to be widespread (even though it was). They only needed a few thousand fraudulent votes in a handful of jurisdictions.

Someone should give Mitt a copy of 2000 Mules and tell him to prove the election wasn’t stolen. This clown needs to put up or shut up.

This isn’t going to turn out well for the RINOs supporting the cover-up and is going to be really bad for the RINOs who participated in the steal.

The truth is undeniable and it’s been publicized. It’s just not been seen by enough of the public yet. It will be, just wait a bit more.

A tacit admission by these RINO’s that they were intimately involved in the FRAUD, they belong in prison with the rest

Seems that the video is already going down the memory hole. Even here on FR few are talking about it.
