For the last couple of months, there was a debate raging in conservatism about whether to turn out for the Georgia Senate runoffs. I was reticent on this issue until election night, where I made several comments blaming the Republicans for their own defeat. And while I will call out Raphael Warnock for being a blatant heretic of Christianity, this does little to translate for supporting David Perdue, the opponent of the other socialist.
I stayed silent because I could see both arguments and both arguments had merit. The Republicans enabled the same voting system that failed for Trump, unironically. David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler were running a disastrous campaign with contempt for their own base. In essence, I feel no need to campaign for Republicans harder than they campaign for themselves. However, I can always understand the argument of throwing more sandbags in Congress to stop the communist advancement in our culture. This strategy has yet to work, but I understand the unwillingness to give up. It would be wrong of me to attempt to bind people’s consciences on a trivial election.
But if Trump is not President, it matters not who controls the Senate by the slimmest majority. Joe Biden’s regents will have the votes they need to pass their agenda, because the Republicans will not hold the line. On the issue of judges, the Democrats had enough votes even if they lost bigly in Georgia. Lindsey Graham voted for both of President Obama’s Supreme Court appointees. he would have voted for Merrick Garland as well if not for Mitch McConnell exercising a rare display political expediency. The Republicans held the line for Scalia’s seat, but that was an election year, and that fact was their pretext as opposed to the principle of opposing anti-gun judges like Merrick Garland. Only three Senators opposed John Kerry as Secretary of State. The Republicans are not going to fight.
I believe the Democrats have the votes for their Equality Act, because the GOP has surrendered on this issue already. The Republicans wanted to lose in Georgia, so there is no reason to place your faith in this institution.
I used to write a lot more on politics, but I found a greater passion about writing for my faith. My God is interested in winning. He did not create the world in six days to lose a cosmic civil war to Satan. And the Bible tells us Jesus will return to conquer the world.
We are on the winning side, whereas the Republican Party is uninterested in winning and the Democrats are the arm of Satan in America. Put your faith not in incompetently run institutions and instead place your trust in God. No Retreat.
1. Donald Trump

They are the defining icons of the American spirit in this age.
Whoever wrote this needs to go back to the first day of 7th-grade civics class. Chuckie Schumer will be running the Senate instead of Mitch McConnell.
RE: Viking Horn Guy
What virtue of his did he display to earn your trust?
With PDJT most of congress will be in jail - replaced by governor appointees.
The runoff elections may have been a real time evidence collection of the Dominion fraud for all we know.
RE: Chuckie Schumer will be running the Senate instead of Mitch McConnell.
I think what he’s saying is it doesn’t matter who the majority leader is, Republicans will cave and there are several Republicans ( like Romney and Murkowski ) who might as well be Democrats anyway.
The runoff was as crooked as the general election.
The biggest betrayal of all has been from elected republicans. This will become more obvious as time passes. My prediction is that a large part of even the left in this country will not like what happens over the next few years. But the damage is done, there is no putting the toothpaste back in the tube. We have crossed the rubicon.
Georgia is an " IN YOUR FACE", blatant election fraud (!),
and what are ya going to do about it ?
The DNC/Dominion Party will spread to all “57” states to insure the communists extend their power to even local & state elections.
Stacy Abrahms won.
Think about that the next time someone posts a snarky comment about her looks or weight, she did what it the job done. She is on the rise and will most likely get at least a nomination for President.
Keyboard warriors are no match for people who do what it takes to get the job done.
I think the Dems won Georgia senate
GOPe voters are at only a 160 year low point
And in 1860 they only got 38-39%
Bet most Freepers dont know that
And this is where the author gets an absolute F minus in civics class: Nothing happens in the Senate without the Senate Majority leader’s approval. If Mitch doesn’t respect a candidate, he doesn’t schedule a vote. End of topic.
+1.
The UT-Chattanooga football coach made a joke about her looks the other day. He was forced to resign from his job.
The day has come when you can't make jokes about a politician--at least a Democrat politician.

He is the modern-day equivalent of the colonists who dressed up like Indians, rowed out into Boston harbor under the cover of night, boarded the British ships anchored there, and dumped all the tea overboard.
#MAGA.
Purdue and Loeffler would have stabbed Trump in the back as soon as they were elected.
