Boycott boomerang: Genius Dems start to realize Georgia boycott will cost them votes in the Peach State
American Thinker ^ | 04/05/2021 | Thomas Lifson

Democrats thought they had a brilliant plan to force Georgia to permit widespread voting fraud by getting their woke pals in corporate America to bully the state into repealing its brand-new voting integrity law that mandates voter ID and other common-sense measures. Two Atlanta-based corporate giants, Coca-Cola and Delta Airlines, denounced Georgia’s new voting integrity bill, and Major League Baseball announced it was moving the All-Star Game away from Atlanta.

Oops!

Guess who gets hurt in the estimated $100 million impact from the loss of the MLB showcase. That would be the little guys who work at hotels and restaurants, who are vendors at the game, and who work in other service industries. The local Dem pols realized this quickly. Last Friday, Laura Ingraham reported:

[T]he blowback against this is growing, which forced even liberal Georgia Sen. Jon Ossoff to put out a statement last night saying, "I absolutely oppose and reject any notion of boycotting Georgia." But then he said that look, corporations that are disgusted, like we are with this voter suppression bill, should stop any financial support for the Georgia Republican Party.

Stacey Abrams, who claimed that she was cheated out of victory in the governor’s race (this was back when it was permitted to question an election result, an activity that now is regarded as destructive of democracy now that almost half the country thinks Joe Biden’s election to the presidency was based on voter fraud) wants to have it both ways. She put pout a video on March 31 that called ion corporations to use their “full clout” but also warned that her peeps would be hurt by boycotts.

Last time I checked, a person must show a photo ID to get a job at Coca Cola or Delta, or to board a Delta airline.

It may cost them voters but they’ll still somehow manage to pull it out at the last minute. No matter if no one votes for the dem can’t-i-date, they’ll still win. We’ve seen unverified proof of that. Guess someone screwed up on the stacy ‘runway’ abrams race.

Exactly. I chuckled when I read this, “ That would be the little guys who work at hotels and restaurants, who are vendors at the game, and who work in other service industries.”

As if those folks will put 2 and 2 together now, or even remember it in a couple of years.

*** ALL of America will hate these dumb lefties within another 6 months.***

Wishful thinking. Won’t happen. It will all be blamed on the right and of course, Trump, DeSantis, and every other Republican with a spine. People will hate what’s happening, but they won’t blame the left.

“It seems as though Coca-Cola is in bad graces with a sizeable group of people now, thanks to leaked images from their anti-racism diversity training courses.”

“The soft drink company went viral online after a leaker shared images of their diversity seminars, which showcased polarizing quotes such as “be less white” that almost immediately had plenty of users up in arms against the company.”

Flew Delta from from SE US to Sydney, Australia rather recently. Worst flight I have ever taken. Will stay away from Delta for that and now this nonsense.

That 'woman' is a nauseatingly disgusting pig and you should post a warning first before posting her picture.

On the bright side, I am dieting to lose some weight and I no longer want breakfast. So there's that.

I always find it odd that democrats always favor laws that reduce the security and integrity of voting, and that somehow reduced voting integrity always favors democrats everytime without exception. I guess the world is just full of strange unexplainable coincidences

Stacey Abrams never paid her own bills. Now she’s going to help others do the same.

She was a lardass that didn’t pay her debts or taxes. She was never successful at anything. Then oprah found a woman fatter than herself and made her a star.

“Vote” definition as of 2021.
A signification by electronic or paper ballot that a person has selected their choice one or more times for a Democrat in an election or sometime after it. Can be adjusted to benefit higher vote totals for the Democrat at the vote counters’ discretion. No recount or questioning of the legitimacy of the Democrat victory will be allowed in any form.

They oppose boycotting Georgia, but they still support all kinds of fraudulent voting.
