Collins’ House seat is solid Republican even if he doesn’t run, and will not be lost barring a MAJOR upset.

The 9th district of Georgia voted for Trump by 59 points over Hillary

For the record.

Even in a jungle we aren’t losing that seat.

Love this guy like a brother, but he really needs to get the marbles out of his mouth and complete a sentence once in a while.

I don’t like it that Collins is running against an incumbent due to personal pique because he thought the nomination should have been his by default. We have way too much of that elitist it’s-all-about-me attitude in DC. Mitt Romney is a case in point. Being a team player matters in some circumstances. This is one such circumstance.

I do believe the seat will be up again in 2022. We could lose and get a 2nd chance. I say go full pedal to the metal with Collins. I’ll let the primary voter decide and give a few bucks if it’s Collins.

We have two Georgia Senatorial seats up in November.

David Perdue has the southern part of the state locked because of family relations.

“Coathanger” Loeffler is laying low so she does not stick out, but has to run for re-election in two years. She has money, but not brains.

She supports planned parenthood.

Loeffler donated $750,000 during the 2012 presidential election to Romney super PAC Restore Our Future. The financial executive has also donated hundreds of thousands of dollars to former Speaker Ryan’s political campaigns and PACs.

Loeffler is the co-owner and co-chairman of the Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA) Atlanta Dream.

After the Trump administration announced plans in 2018 to cut family planning funding from abortion providers such as Planned Parenthood, WNBA President Lisa Borders said that she and the league “stands with Planned Parenthood.”

Loeffler’s Atlanta Dream has also pushed back on some socially conservative policies in Georgia.

He represents the reddest of the red districts. No chance it goes blue.

BS. If Republicans lost this reddest of red House seats, they would lose 200 other house seats. It won’t happen, not the slightest chance.

Interesting. Thanks. F&F tried to pry a reason for this “Senate run” out of him, Collins avoided answer - was unwilling to give a coherent response.....
