TeapubliKKKons Are Terrified That Trump Will Cost Them The Georgia Senate Runoff Elections


Republicans don’t care about Trump’s feelings. They are trying to save their own skins by keeping control of the Senate. If Democrats were to win both Senate runoff elections, the Senate would be a 50-50 with Vice President Harris breaking ties. Democrats would essentially have the majority and the ability to enact the Biden policy agenda.
If Trump’s kids take control of the RNC, the Trumps are still going to be in control of the Republican Party, so the current Republican denial has nothing to do with wanting to support Trump’s doomed election challenge.

McConnell is trying to keep Trump happy so that he doesn’t take the Republican Senate majority down with him.

And they can only go so far before they are pushed over the edge.

There's a few Conservatives that need to move the Country along, look to those to pick up maybe only 1 - 2 votes. also, getting Warnock and Ossoff on board will make a HUGE difference.

What a concept! Bless Manchin for being a Dem and being a tick mark on our side and sometimes voting with us. It’s a miracle we have that from WVa so I’m grateful actually.
