President Trump on Wednesday morning blasted Democrats for "failing" to win Georgia's House special election the night before, framing the upcoming runoff election as a battle between the state and outside interests.

"Dems failed in Kansas and are now failing in Georgia," the president tweeted Wednesday. "Great job Karen Handel! It is now Hollywood vs. Georgia on June 20th."

The race drew intense outside attention, with a number of celebrities donating to Ossoff's campaign.

I have heard rumblings that the big Hollywood/DNC money won’t come out again for Ossoff in the runoff election; the sentiment seems to be “Why throw good money after bad?” I hope that’s true.

Dont get too cocky there Trump, this fruitcake almost won outright with 49%. If he sways just 1% in the runoff, he wins.

Yup! There’s a shite-ton of liberals in the area but I suspect most of them don’t fully align with the big city, west-coast, celebutard kind of liberal image.

Karen Handel should be able to see a success template that isn’t hard to follow, it’s abbreviated MAGA.

President Trump isn’t getting “cocky”, he is framing the Congressional Race for the Voters in Georgia.

I’m waiting for President Trump’s Tweet calling the Democrat a Pajama Wearing Carpetbagger.

Pajama Boy's result will decrease. Hollywood is fired up about him, but they know they will just be throwing good money after bad. The Republicans will line up behind Handel (some holding their noses) in order to defend the 6th against Hollywood. We don't take too kindly to liberals trying to buy our seat.

Perez must be persona non grata in Hollywood.

Tout Hollywood are kicking their collective rears-—they got a good song and dance from Perez and parted w/ mega bucks.

Perez tells them THIS is the race that will humble Trump-——so give and give big.

Ossoff’s flop musta been hard to stomach.......ROTFLOL.

Just another Obama legacy....another Dumbocrat flops.

This clown lost with 11 other Republican candidates and with over $8 million in support from leftist groups/Hollywood.

It doesn't matter how close he was. HE STILL LOST. A loss is a loss, regardless if you lose by a percentage point or get blown out of the water.

There are no moral victories in politics, and this clown will get his @ss handed to him in the run-off.

He reminds of Tom Hanks in Big with the oversize suit.

Since Ossoff is pretending to be right center, I’d suggest an online campaign trolling leftist boards with claims that he’s not very supportive of LGBTQ-whatever causes and *actually* has a problem with transwomen. He’ll either let this be a wedge driving off support on the left or he’ll defend himself and drive off the right. No way to win if it’s played right, damned if he does, damned if he doesn’t.
