President Trump endorsed Mike Collins over the weekend.

Trump called Mike Collins a "true friend, fighter and warrior."

Full statement from Trump:

It is my Great Honor to endorse “MAGA” Mike Collins, a Highly Respected Congressman who has been with me from the very beginning, and is running for the United States Senate in Georgia, a very special place to me, and where we just had a BIG Presidential Election Win with the Most Votes Received by any single Candidate in Georgia’s History, for any Election. Mike is strongly supported by the most Highly Respected MAGA Patriots in Georgia and beyond, and many Republicans in the U.S. House and Senate — He is a WARRIOR and WINNER!

A very successful Businessman prior to becoming a distinguished U.S. Congressman, Mike has brilliantly served his Community, during a career loaded with accolades and wins, always fighting tirelessly for our America First Agenda. As your next Senator, Mike will continue to work hard to Grow the Economy, Cut Taxes and Regulations, Promote MADE IN THE U.S.A., Champion American Energy DOMINANCE, Strengthen our incredible Military/Veterans, Advance Election Integrity, Keep our Border SECURE, Stop Migrant Crime, Murderers, and other Criminals from illegally entering our Country, Ensure LAW AND ORDER, and Protect our always under siege Second Amendment.

You’re right about Jackson, and about how RINO/Democrat crossover voters gave him the W yesterday.

I still wouldn’t say that he *will* not win in November, but he probably won’t. At which point Georgia is stuck with a radical-left racist Governor and a nominal GOP legislature which is not veto-proof.

Which means: gridlock for 4 years (unless Rats take over the legislature at some point) and NO CHANCE at redistricting to adhere to the Supreme Court’s ruling on the VRA and the racist Democrat districts it mandated — which are now illegal. And now it’s too late to act this year, even if they wanted to (which they don’t).

Of course Jackson is far better than Ghettopottamus 2.0 but he is far worse than Burt Jones. He is a Democrat posing as a Republican ala Kemp, Raffensperger and (formerly) Geoff Duncan — in fact he may be WORSE than those guys though he currently talks a good game.

And with the other top-ballot race in Georgia being a foregone conclusion (D), GOP voters may lack motivation in November (duh) while Rat motivation is off the charts (duh again).

Sadly Slick Rick proved that you can buy a nomination. 😣
