Pollak: If You Want to Defend Trump’s Legacy, Fight for Georgia
Breitbart ^ | 3 Dec 2020 | JOEL B. POLLAK

Posted on 12/03/2020 9:14:34 AM PST by conservative98

Attorneys Sidney Powell and Lin Wood told a rally in Atlanta, Georgia, on Wednesday that Republicans should not vote in the January 5 runoff elections for U.S. Senate unless state authorities rectify problems in the state’s voting system.

Wood, who insisted Thursday that he is not actually a Democrat, cast his position as a defense of President Donald Trump. But the reality is otherwise: if Democrats win both Senate seats in the runoff, they will destroy Donald Trump’s legacy.

Currently, the Senate has a 52-48 Republican majority, after Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ) was sworn in earlier this week after defeating Sen. Martha McSally (R-AZ) to complete the remainder of the late Sen. John McCain’s term.

If Democrats Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock defeat incumbent Republicans David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler, the Senate will move to a 50-50 tie, allowing Democrats to take over, with presumptive Vice President Kamala Harris casting the tie-breaking vote.

That will enable Democrats to control all of the Senate’s committees. They will be able to ram radical judicial nominees through confirmation. They will block all Republican efforts at oversight. There will be no Senate investigation of Hunter Biden, and his business entanglements with his father, in the light of new revelations from the infamous laptop. There will, however, be endless and pointless investigations of the outgoing Trump administration, as well as anyone who served in it.

With two new Senators from Georgia, Democrats will have free rein to attack and dismantle every portion of Donald Trump’s legacy. The tax cuts he signed into law in 2017, which made the U.S. economy competitive again, will be reversed. The oil and gas industry, which made the U.S. energy independent under Trump, will be unraveled by the Green New Deal. Tough border enforcement and strong military spending will be distant memories as Democrats divert funding to favored interests.

Moreover, Kamala Harris will be put in a position to cast the decisive vote to advance the left’s agenda. The Senate will end the filibuster, the last protection for the minority party. It can create new states in the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico, bringing four new Senators to the chamber, making it almost impossible for Republicans to return to the majority. Democrats will pass amnesty for (at a bare minimum) 11 million illegal aliens, and pack the Supreme Court, expanding it and confirming liberal justices to fill the new vacancies.

Powell and Wood say that they are standing up for the integrity of elections. But with a Democrat-run Senate, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) will advance her legislation to change the rules of elections so that Republicans can never win again. As Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) noted Wednesday, Pelosi’s first bill in 2019, H.R. 1, mandated national vote-by-mail; permitted “ballot harvesting” nationwide; prohibited photo ID requirements; and prevented signature matching for absentee ballots.

President Donald Trump gave a speech Wednesday in which he vowed to keep fighting in the courts against voter fraud. He should do so, because the 2020 elections were deeply flawed. Even without Powell and Wood’s claims about Dominion voting systems, the introduction of mass vote-by-mail in the middle of an election was fundamentally unfair, and created the potential for fraud. Transparency is crucial. But Trump is also coming to Georgia to campaign for Perdue and Loeffler.

The fight for clean elections is one that must continue after January. To the extent that Georgia officials allowed the rot, they should be held accountable. But they are not on the Jan. 5 ballot; Perdue and Loeffler are. They are leading the charge for reform, demanding that Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger resign.

Republicans who boycott the runoffs are not helping Trump, or Georgia, or America. They are helping Democrats, and socialism. And they could bury Trump’s MAGA legacy.

Prepare for an onslaught of USEFUL IDIOTS and low-IQ’ers in our midst promoting the election of two Leftist DemocRATS to the Senate from Georgia.

So, why are these sterling Georgia Senate candidates not demanding that Governor Kemp and Co. expose the rampant voter fraud ?

Seems like a logical question for the RINO hand-wringers.

It’s insane. Reasonable people cannot differ on this issue. Should Biden be inaugurated well have trouble enough keeping our weak links in place. That we would voluntarily make it worse beggars the imagination

Breitbart has now gone the way of Fox News. They have had very few articles on election fraud and now attack those who are exposing the fraud. I am done with Breitbart. I wonder what Andrew would think?

Cool story bro.

Why are Perdue and Loeffler not demanding that the election not be done with the same fraudulent system? Why are they not demanding this obvious fraudulent presidential vote be addressed?

There must be a reason for their “business as usual” silence.

If they will not fight for us now when they need out votes in 4 weeks, how do you think they’ll act when they don’t face voters again for 6 years?

AND don't listen to the Hollyweird types telling you to write in DJT's name!

They are actually putting up billboards in rural areas thinking the 'goobers' are stupid enough to think this is a good idea!

Think of the GOP as a house eaten through by termites and with mold everywhere, and substandard wiring.
You try a patch here and there, but it’ll never be what you want. It’ll never be liveable.

Sometimes you have to bulldoze the whole rotten mess and build a new house.

Conservatives will never run the GOP.

I think that the corporate heads at Breitbart and Fox have been inhaling too much of the self-expelled carbon-monoxide through their face-masks.

How else does one explain the editorial suicide that each has committed this month ?

Really disappointed in Brietbart, but it’s to be expected that anyone can go dark side at any time. Just like the Sludge Report.

Powell, Lin Wood, Pelosi, Schumer, Stacy Abrams, and various ‘conservative’ Freepers, all working to elect Democratic Senators in GA.

I’m more disappointed in freepers who fall for this. It’s like the people who always say every election that we should let the other side win and people will learn their lesson. They never do, and this may be our last opportunity to vote.

Simple, they are against Trump. They will not get support from me, it would be nice to pretend we control the Senate but does it really matter? They are all the same.

Unfortunately, so are Kemp, Raffesberger, Loeffler and Pedue.

I have no interest in supporting or voting for those who are in favor of the system that is helping Joe Biden to steal the 2020 election. It’s Kabuki Theater and it is increasingly boring. Either fight for electoral reform RIGHT NOW when everything is at stake, or don’t expect people to vote for you.

These condescending billboards alone are reason to vote in the Senate race. I want to see Leftists whine. At this point it’s one of the few pleasures that politcs are bringing me.
