Dan Crenshaw Calls Pro-Trump Lawyer 'Grifter' and 'Democrat' After Georgia Boycott Call
Newsweek ^ | 12/4/2020 | JAMES WALKER

Posted on 12/04/2020 5:25:34 AM PST by Kevin C

Republican congressman Dan Crenshaw called the pro-Trump lawyer L. Lin Wood a "grifter" and a "Democrat" after the attorney told Georgia voters not to turn out for the Senate runoff elections at the start of next year. Posting on social media on Thursday night, Crenshaw accused Wood of wanting "donations for his legal fees" and for Republicans to self-destruct as the party seeks to hold onto its Georgia Senate seats and overall majority in the upper chamber. The GOP lawmaker hit out at Wood after the lawyer told a "stop the steal" rally in Georgia that Republican Senators Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue had not earned their votes, before urging them to boycott the crucial Senate races slated for January 5. Reacting to a clip of Wood speaking at the rally, Rep. Crenshaw said: "Lin Wood is a Democrat that wants Republicans to self-destruct. Just because he wears a MAGA hat does not mean he shares a single value with you. He just wants your donations for his legal fees. He's a grifter." He also told Georgians to vote at the Senate runoff elections on January 5 in order to "protect the accomplishments" of the past four years under President Donald Trump's leadership. Newsweek has contacted L. Lin Wood for comment. This article will be updated with any response.

Nice to see Crenshaw finally getting something right (unlike many here, he does understand what it means to have a country run by Marxists). By the way, which eye is his patch covering today?

Sounds to me like he isn’t “pro” anyone except himself.

He’s right. Too many conservatives, including at this website, are quitters who rationalize giving up and going home by claiming it would violate their principles to fight for every vote. That’s what the people listening to Wood are doing.

Troll thread very active. Whom should be Trump’s lawyer if not Lin Wood? Go to Michele Malkin’s Twitter feed and see the post where Dan spoke at same global leader forum with Soros’ sons.

Someone should tell this fellow that it was Wood who requested the video of the Fulton polling place.

“do you know threatening not to vote can be a good tool to get people on your side who want your vote think about that genius”

It’s also a GREAT WAY to lose elections. He didn’t need to go that far, PLENTY of other GOP types who rightly deserved to be attacked by him...starting with the Governor and SOS.

too many people here do the same thing each year give your vote away for free and get nothing in return so why should I expect you to do anything different you either undercover establishment idiot or just a ladder part.. do you know if they get behind us and support Trump and the fraud and exposing it then we can decide to vote for them but you decide to vote for them without their support that’s kind of stupid.

What part of Trump telling him to STFU do you not understand regarding Lin Wood’s attacking of our Senate candidates?

it is only a good way to lose elections if you don’t vote on election day...But threatening not to vote to get what you want helps you get what you want dummy

Numerous scandals
Fast and Furious
IRS targeting
Hillary Email
Spy gate
Benghazi
2020 election

These people expect you to get in line and vote R.
It is no different than Biden telling blacks they must vote for him.

We will go vote for the two in Georgia, but I guarantee nothing is going to change.

The next time something happens we will either get Lindsay Graham hearing or Inspector General for two years and then nothing...
