TFG lashes out at Georgia officials over effort to remove Greene from ballot

Former President Trump lashed out at top Georgia officials amid an effort to challenge Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s (R-Ga.) candidacy for reeelction, though neither official was involved in a recent federal judge’s ruling on the matter.

“The Governor of Georgia, Brian Kemp, and Secretary of State, Brad Raffensperger, perhaps in collusion with the Radical Left Democrats, have allowed a horrible thing to happen to a very popular Republican, Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene. She is now going through hell in their attempt to unseat her, just more of an election mess in Georgia,” Trump said in a statement issued through his Save America PAC.

endorsement of Georgia gubernatorial candidate and former Sen. David Perdue (R), who is running against Kemp for the Republican gubernatorial primary.

“Brian Kemp should be voted out of office—vote for David Perdue,” Trump said. “REMEMBER, Brian Kemp will never be able to win the General Election against Stacey ‘The Hoax’ Abrams because a large number of Republicans just will not vote for him.”

1. The 14th Amendment to the Constitution passed Congress

In 1866 and was ratified the year before Donald Trump’s grandfather was born. It’s good to see remnants of the Republicans’ one-time idealism spoke the wheels of TFG’s and the MAGA movement’s political agenda.

It looks like MTG is standing in Section Three’s bulls-eye.

She’s not going through hell. It’s the truth, she just thinks it’s hell to paraphrase our own Harry Truman. TFG knows that if this lawsuit succeeds he and a lot of his fellow traitors will be next

4. Based on his statement, not so sure he knows that.

People around him may know that and may have told him about it, but in his ignorant mind, he thinks that Governors are like a "boss" of a company and can just make decisions. He thought he should be able to just say something and then something would happen. He has a 3 year old's understanding of the world.

Governors cannot overrule the courts.

If Greene did nothing wrong, then she should not be worried at all about her testimony. Isn't that what Trump said, only guilty people plea the 5th.

8. Oh, dear. He's "lashing out" again.

The writers of these articles need to start using some different terms. Lardass is going to copyright the verb "to lash," if they're not careful.

Try:
"Former President Trump had a spittin' hissyfit about..."
"Former President Trump had a bad spell of the vapors after..."
"Former President Trump threw ye-gods-yet-still-another tantrum about..."
"Former President Trump got his XXL knickers in a twist about..."
"Former President Trump passed more gas from his upper cloaca after..."
"Former President Trump acted like he just pinched off a pineapple after..."
"Former President Trump opened his facial sphincter and spewed more verbal diarrhea after..."

C'mon, guys. Have some fun with it. What's he gonna do -- sue you?
