There is a HUGE difference between a 50-50 Senate with Schumer in charge and a 51-49 Senate with McConnell in charge.

I really wish people would educate themselves on the rules of the Senate. In a 50-50 Senate with Schumer in charge all sorts of leftist stuff will
come up for a vote and Romney, Collins and MooCowSki will get to go off the reservation.

In a 51-49 Senate, McConnell makes sure that the stuff doesn’t even come up for a vote if Romney et. al. are going to go off the reservation.

The Georgia GOP sealed the fate of these two with the vote banana republic vote counts and recounts. These two are doomed because I don’t see the Trump people making any effort or very little for a party that’s screwed them over since 1989.

Collins would have made a better candidate against Warnock. Having said that, it’s important that both Loeffler and Perdue win on January 5th. I think it is also possible that Joe Manchin will switch to the Republican side if Loeffler and Perdue lose. He has already said that he does not support getting rid of the Senate filibuster, defunding the police, and the “squad’s” socialist agenda. With those positions, Manchin has no political future in an increasingly radical Democratic Party.

Trump supporters should stay home in GA and every Trump supporter nationwide should not donate any money to the RNC, RNCC, RNSC

“Trump supporters should stay home in GA ...”

No. Democrat control of the Senate would be a disaster.

If the GOP doesn’t stand up and stop the certification until a full audit is done, then it won’t matter how many deplorables vote in January. GA will use those same machines with the same algorithm to “win” both runoffs anyway.
