Trump Threatens MAGA Boycott of Georgia Midterms if Kemp Is GOP's Candidate
Newsweek ^ | March 27, 2022 | Natalie Colarossi

Posted on 03/28/2022 10:10:32 PM PDT by Trump20162020

Speaking during a rally in Georgia on Saturday, former President Donald Trump suggested that his supporters would boycott the state's midterm election if incumbent Governor Brian Kemp wins the Republican Party's primary race.

At the event, the former president supported several GOP primary candidates, including gubernatorial Republican candidate David Perdue, who is challenging Kemp. Trump has repeatedly criticized the governor after he refused to cave to pressure to investigate the results of the 2020 presidential election in Georgia.

"David Perdue, who is a wonderful man, and incredible family, and who really got screwed by Kemp, is the only candidate in this race who can beat Stacey 'the hoax' Abrams this November. And you know the reason for that is because Trump voters— MAGA—Trump voters will not go out and vote for Kemp," Trump said at the rally. "If Brian Kemp is renominated, he will go down in flames at the ballot box."

Re: 5 - There were several FReepers that talked about sitting out the GA Senate runoff election in early 2021. and some encouraging GA Freepers to do so. That, combined with our good friend Lin Wood suggesting not to vote for the Republican candidates, ended up as good predictors of the outcome. Does it matter? Ask again in about 2-3 weeks when Biden gets his first Supreme Court nominee confirmed.

This. x1000. All of the moron trailer park residents who say Abrams would be better will be the same ones crying and stamping their feet when Abrams pushes through a NY Style "Safe Act" and wrecks the State via her executive orders, as well as putting in a machine that will make Georgia permanently Blue.

The trailer park class can't see the big picture because grifters with a blog tell them how to "think."

You guys are supporters of Rinos, GOPe.

In most cases, I support candidates who have won their Republican or Conservative Primary.

Like I said - if you think the party needs to be "purified" - go for it! I hope it works out!

What that tells me is you’d rather have Abrams than Kemp...”

You response - Yes.

Does that make you a supporter of Democrats?

I mean if you're calling people supporters of RINOs and GOP-E, what should we call people who would rather have a Democrat in office than a Republican?

“In most cases, I support candidates who have won their Republican or Conservative Primary.”

I used to think that.

They had many many chances.

Too many really. Our patience has been great.

But they didn’t not change, they got worse.

Insanity is letting libtards win because your specific candidate isn’t the nominee.

There’s other ways around the madness... you can vote for better local state reps and they can help drive the narrative if they win but giving up on anyone who’s not exactly what you want is a losing strategy from the start.

Trump was a great President but he’s not the all powerful Oz some FRs think he is. The swamp was never drained.. had he done that he’d be President today.

I have no problem with this. I am not ever going to vote for any RINOs again. RINOs are just as bad as Democrats and they cannot be trusted to advance an America first agenda. There isn’t a difference between RINOs and Democrats. If Dr. Oz wins the primary in PA, I just won’t vote for anyone. Might as well have a Democrat. At least I can wake up in the morning and look in the mirror and say I didn’t vote for a Muslim Hollywood carpet bagger leftist from Turkey. In the long run, people will begin to realize that Democrats and RINOs eff everything they touch.

“Insanity is letting libtards win “

______________

That’s right, that’s why we’re voting against all of the RINOs. Cleaning up the crap Libtards that colluded with the DNC, BLM, CCP, RNC, CIA, DOJ to steal our elections.

Do you want Abrams?

No?

Then do not support Kemp.

Not hard to understand.

Supporting Kemp is destructive.

Not hard to understand.

Your choice.

“Some of you in GA want to just take your ball and stomp your way home, but know this.. you do NOT want Stacey Abrams as your next governor.“

Kemp is out-of-office, much to your disappointment apparently. Nobody is stomping anywhere except to the polls to vote that communist sympathizer and his cohorts out of office. PUNISHED.

He didn’t say it or threaten to do it. I heard the whole speech. This is Newsweek, twisting everything they hear, translating it from plain English into Fake-News-ese. He predicted, wisely, that if Kemp is the nominee, Trump supporters will be so put off that they stay home in the general GA election, skewering even the beloved Hershel Walker’s chances.

So you want to play chicken?

It’s fair warning. Don’t nominate Kemp.

Why are you so for Kemp?

Remember Romney? “The only Republican who could win”? He lost. McCain? He lost.

And I could name a long list of others.

That’s who you picked each time in the primaries, I bet.

Hows that worked out?

Are you listening to THE MEDIA who are telling you Kemp is the best candidate, with the highest change of beating THEIR GUY..? Think about that very carefully.

That’s a typical leftist response. I didn’t say that I supported Kemp. I prefer Kemp to Abrams.
Don’t be stupid.
You’re not very good at the game of chicken.

You lost the game of chicken in your last post when you got all oissied off angry.

If you don’t support Kemp, why are you objecting and not agreeing he shouldn’t be the nominee?

Not my disappointment. Just know what your getting, not only at the gubernatorial level but the Senatorial one.
