Not to mention feckless GOP “leaders” in Georgia.

“Mitch is as happy as a little girl now, all the perks with none of the responsibility, it’s the Republican Way.”

Always has been. I noticed it with Obama, the GOP was just thrilled to be impotent back benchers.

GOPe did absolutely nothing about the blatant voting fraud.

They did what they were told, they kept repeating it didn't exist!

Dont have to worry about it any more. Either the Lincoln Project/Never Trumpers leave the GOP or I do. That is one liberating fact of today.

In Georgia the GOP runs the legislature and they must get
rid of the consent decree that the Gov. Kemp signed with
Ghettopottomus Tank Abrams.

Also they must rid the state of Dominion machines, and outlaw unsolicited mail in ballots.

A purge of the voter rolls. Voter ID requirements

Nobody wants Beijing Bungler Biden.

Whether we like it or not, demographics come into play here.

IIRC, blacks and Hispanics make up 35-40% of Georgia’s voting population. Throw in urban and white suburban liberals along with milquetoast suburban women and there’s the recipe for problems.

It’s happened to Virginia. It’s happening in North Carolina. Texas is still red - but getting a bit iffy. Florida is stable for the time being but also not longer a sure thing for the GOP.

When the GOP electoral monopoly on the Sunbelt breaks, we are done for.

Rattensperger and Kemp would look bad if they admitted that it did exist.

After a Capitol riot aimed at stopping the certification of Joe Biden’s electoral count,

Nope! Wrong! Capitol riot has now been documented to be solely orchestrated by ANTIFA! Did some Trump supporters get caught up in the energy of that day? Yes. But this was started and led by ANTIFA.

“ After a Capitol riot”

It wasn’t a riot.

And who is “Ilya Shapiro”?

Sounds like he’s really into the “red vs blue” scam.

The courts failing to hear evidence sealed Trumps fate.
The courts were only allowed to do that with cover from our leftist media.
When the government is allowed to select which laws they enforce, and which laws they ignore, personal freedom vanishes...and that is exactly where we find ourselves today.

This article is just outright B$#LSh#t!! The presidential election was stolen and practically all institutions made it out to be a conspiracy — including many of the local GA legislators and certainly the governor and SOS.

It was too much for Trump and the Senate candidates to overcome. They got beat by the other side. If that issue had been resolved, the two sick Republican candidates would have made it across the finish line and it is likely Trump would be about to begin his second term today.

I will have to agree that Trump should have stayed away from the Secretary of State POS on the phone call. I also agree that he and the MAGA movement got suckered in big-time on January 6th with the alleged MAGA riot!

I really can’t believe The Federalist would publish such crap.

Maybe it needs to get worse in order to get better.

Actually, “we” will never get anywhere until the GOP is destroyed. Any plan to help the GOP survive is a plan to hurt America.

Illegal votes: any vote not cast according to the laws passed by the state legislature. That is not a difficult or complex definition to understand. It happened in many states, including some in Texas, which helped keep Harris County a blue county with a Soros DA.

The legislatures of every state must address this issue of illegal voting. I don’t expect much of the Dem controlled legislatures. For their own sake, the Republican ones should get busy.

FL is not stable at all. FL got a $15 minimum wage and nearly got open primaries in the last election. I expect FL will turn solid blue before TX does.

You can’t make money as a political pundit /talking head /journalist if you give the simplest , most obvious answer. Anyone watching what happened could tell you that republicans lost because of “mail in ballots” , let’s see if a republican does anything to stop it from happening again.
