In a roundabout way, here is my point.
If the fraud was as extensive as many claim in Georgia, why wasn’t Stacy Abrams elected as Governor, surely the Democratic precincts in the Atlanta around would do anything possible to get her in office, obviously that didn’t happen.
If Kemp and Raffensberger control all the cheating, why not work with them rather than trash them, nearly every Trump endorsed candidate in Georgia lost, while Kemp and Raffensberger candidates won, which cost the Republicans two Senate Seats.
It gets to my claim, you work with what you have and try to make it better, it’s the war we are trying to win, not the small battle, just think how much different it would be in Washington if Republicans had control of the House and Senate.
If you say, it wouldn’t matter, think about Merrick Garland, he would be on the Supreme Court right now rather than Neil Gorsuch, that is because the crap McConnell takes, he deserves the credit for that move.
In fact, Trump’s most important legacy from the first term was his impact on the Courts, 3 Supreme Court nominees, it all happened under McConnell.
You work with McConnell when you can to advance the agenda, you don’t trash him, in the end he can make your life miserable.

Because the Democrats need cooperation from the Republicans in power, in order to do so. The Democrats may have run the operation in 2020, but they got away with it only because Kemp and Raffensperger were willing to look the other way.
Now, as far as working with what you’ve got, I get it. But you have to get something in return or there’s no point. State policy has little direct impact on the nation at large except for their effect on federal elections. When they allow fraud to steal a Senate seat or a Presidential election, that’s everyone’s problem. Kemp and Raffensperger have made it clear where they stand on corruption and election fraud. They’re either choosing to look the other way or they’re participants. That puts them squarely in the enemy camp.
Their policy on state issues means little to the rest of us. They’ve made it clear where they stand on the bigger challenge facing the country - taking down the deep state and bringing back fair, honest elections and government..
