As a SuperPAC they are probably raking in some $$$ (and they can take in from big donors and let the smaller donors directly fund the candidates) and I know it's cheaper for stuff down there (part of why some of my family and a few former co-workers migrated down there).

18. I hope it's legit. It's alarming when an obvious mock-up is presented as being THE actual billboard...

I hope it's legit. It's alarming when an obvious mock-up is presented as being THE actual billboard… rather than telling us "here's an example of what our forthcoming billboard will look like". --- All I know for sure is that the photo in the tweet of the OP ain't real.

24. Would probably be faster to put up than the old school "paper panels"

Donald Trump has no loyalty to his party, let alone to the country. His only loyalty is to himself. Whoever disappoints him will get thrown under the bus, be they Democrat, Republican or Independent. Now that Trump has lost the election, he's totally AWOL, playing his fiddle while Rome burns. Trump's not a team player, and being a team player is what is required, first and foremost, by our democracy.

11. "Whoever disappoints him" also know as not aiding and abetting

EVERYONE! Every single person who has the stupid idea they can deal with this madman will (a). find themselves as the target of his ire in a misuse of power. OR, (b). be part of the criminal act.

Although it sounds like they are planning for 56 to go up across the state this week and are crowd-funding them.

I just don't get it. Why are the Repubs urging people to stay home and not vote? Why are they trying to get the Dems elected??

I guess about a million Georgians ordered up paper ballets. Is this so they can complain about losing and cause yet another delay with recounting? That's all I can think of right now. I have never understood why they have turned on their two candidates.

When our guys win back the Senate, Joe and Kamala will be able to rock n roll. McConnell will be reduced to a powerless jerk. And, any delay from recounting will fade away. So, I don't get it.

As I mentioned to someone earlier (upthread) it may have seemed less suspicious if the original tweet and the OP had indicated "here's a mock-up of the billboard we want to put up around town" --- but it's being presented as "here's the billboard that's already up in Atlanta" and that's demonstrably false.

I don't know much about searching for old tweets. Maybe he deleted the tweet? Are re-tweets easily searchable based only on the content of the original tweet (esp if Trump made no additional comments).
