DeeTillEhDeh Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 There's absolutely no doubt that Trump's post-election histrionics have chucked this one away for the Republicans. Will be interesting to see if the candidates turn on him - they're being punted from office so what is there to lose? Loeffler is a bona fide crank so will probably claim the Democrats have been ballot stuffing, but no idea about the other guy. Both GOP candidates followed the "Democrats stole the election" line - they pinned their colours to Trump's mast and deserve everything that happens to them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detournement Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Hopefully Mitch McConnell evaporates now like the Witched Witch of the West. The new game is watching Chuck and Nancy explain why they can't pass anything progressive despite holding both houses. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
