There are liberal plants in the GOP who are only there to cause problems to cause it recuperated by communists.

That woman has been big problems from the get go

Loeffler’s vote not to convict Trump has endeared her to the President.

He rewards his friends and punishes his enemies.

You mean aside to vote to acquit in her first ever vote?

That cuts a LOT of ice with me.

Oh, Oh, I'm so sorry. If I had only known what you thought, I would have reconsidered. /s

She bought her way into the Senate AND (from Wikipedia) Loeffler donated $750,000 to Restore Our Future, a Super PAC supporting former Governor Mitt Romney's 2012 presidential campaign AND, AND, The National Republican Senatorial Committee received $247,500 from Loeffler and her husband (in 2019).

Yeah. She really has conservative core values. My azz!

No you get your facts straight. The FACT is that David Perdue had to step down from that committee assignment on the Senate Agricultural Committee so Loeffler could have it.
The FACT is that a newly appointed jr senator was immediately placed on a senate committee that watch dogs her husband’s company. This a total conflict of interest assignment which she never should have accepted. Are you OK with that? Yes or no?

Unlikely, but possible. Why not see if we can make it happen?

Theoretically possible, practically impossible.

The same thing applies to removing an elected official in Georgia. Similar sort of thing.

No, on the face of it, but I need to know more details. And I misinterpreted your meaning, thinking you meant Senate seat, not committee seat.

You know all the details from my previous post. What more is there to know? This whole last minute appointment of Loeffler has stunk up the joint from day one.

Trump gave Nicki Haley the UN job to get her RINO azz out of the SC governor’s seat so a true conservative Henry McMaster could takeover. My guess he will do a similar thing for Loeffler to get Collins in the GA senate seat. She’s a wildcard, Collins is a known entity.

Trump avid supporters will support a Trump endorsed candidate.

But there is probably the winning margin of swing voters who do not want an “outsider” telling Georgians who they should run to represent GA. I believe we have played that card, ourselves.

So the 2 wannabes need to figure it out without Trump.... and then let Trump support it after the fact.

Or have all 3 agree on something behind closed doors, have the two announce it, and have Trump endorse.

She’s a self-funder, he’s probably looking to get Collins out, not her.

Mulvaney on thin ice? Collins could be COS.

I don’t see what appointment she would possibly want over a US Senate seat.

A plum ambassadorship somewhere nice.

Why would she take a short-term ambassador or cabinet position when she could have a life-time senate seat?

Senate seats are lifetime ? Maybe in Demonrat states.

Orrin Hatch. Ted Stevens. Chuck Grassley. Thad Cochran.

That would imply they stayed until they died in office. Hatch retired, Stevens was defeated due to being set-up with fake corruption charges. Cochran resigned after stealing his last term. Even Strom Thurmond retired.

Grassley might stay until he dies. His grandson, who was just elected Speaker of the IA House, presumably will succeed him if he passes mid-term.

Only McQueeg comes to mind, and he wasn’t much of a Republican.

Collins being considered for DNI.

I told you the President was trying to get him out.
