If Trump loses the senate for Republicans he's fucking done.
Forget NY attorneys, the GOP will send their own men to ruin him forever.

If you go to their site they are pushing the ga senate race but I also saw them backing yang so yeahThe PAC is real and is "Anti-Trump". They don't specifically mention Democrats but do mention progressives.
He should also be mad that Mitch kept telling him how great pushing all those judges was for him and yet they all ruled against his bullshit. Neither deserves the other's loyalty here.Honestly Trump should be mad at Senate Republicans for not passing a big stimulus. Not saying he would have won(definitely glad he didn't), but it wouldn't have hurt either.
He will definitely be holding the Republican primary hostage. He is basically freezing out all those so called 'young conservative stars" who been waiting. Which is why I find it hard to believe they all will continue to endorse him. They have political aspirations too, and realize your shot doesn't come around too often. The Rubios, Cottons, etc. want their chance to run for President.Is Trump going to hold the GOP hostage all the way through 2024? They're going to be actively rooting for his prosecution at this rate.
GOP about to find out Trumpers only simp for Daddy Trump. Its so goddamn funny.
I mean, if recent years have taught us anything its that we cannot know "real" anymore.Does anyone have any insights into how "real" this situation actually is, or is it really just the media hyping it up and wishful thinking?
It really is that simple but, NOOOOOOOOOO, it has to be some grand conspiracy against them.They will complain again when they lose.
"how could this be? Why did nobody vote?"
Just like mail in voting.
"how could this be? Why did nobody vote?"
BECAUSE YOU TOLD EVERYONE NOT TO VOTE.

It's real in the sense that people are legitimately putting out these ads.
It's real in that people like Trump and others are legitimately saying things like "why vote?".
It's real that there is likely a non-zero number of Trump supporters who legitimately believe this stuff because their "great leader" says so.
Will it make a difference "real" though? We'll have to wait for the results.

YesTrump isn't a Republican, he just ran as one. He has no love for them, and they never had any real love for him. They were basically using each other for about four years. This is going to look like a bad break up.
Yea, Michael Moore had that great discussion around this post Trump's victory. I felt it was very accurate. People are so desperate for change that they'll take to the outlier, and in the case of trump they hoped a "businessman" who was beyond the political/financial reach (obviously false) would change everything. But the point being people want something different and to them the DNC and moderate republicans represent the same old system we've had for decades. They aren't entirely wrong, they're just idiots for entrusting it to people who's only motivation is to themselves.The concern here is he'll hurt the Republicans enough that they cave and let him meddle in 2022 through to 2024. Like a battered wife.
Anyways, as an aside.
Trump sadly has locked in the dispossesed working class whites that have seen their jobs disappear and replaced with nothing. I am listening to Obama's new book and I'm struck how those very people were among his early supporters.
In many ways the way Republicans reacted to the 'cult' around Obama is in many ways how the Democrats are reacting to the cult around Trump. There's a thin line here and enthusisam for Obama's change message has transferred to Trump. The democrats need to figure something out here. Those voters aren't all irredeemable, but they don't like business as usual.
I thought you were referencing TR's Bull Moose (Progressive) Party that doomed the Republican's chances in 1912?
If not my bad
Good points. I'm trying to really temper my expectations given how the polls in 2020 (while largely right) were off by several percent in the battleground states.
I think Warnock is happening, the Ossoff/Purdue race will be the deciding one.
Ossoff was only behind Purdue by 2%, so you really wouldn't need to depress GOP turnout by very much to flip that seat.
That billboard was made by a Dem PAC.
I think the idea of it is smart & I doubt the average georgian would be able to tell where it came from, but I don't think this is an indication of actual infighting within the GOP
Procedural question here ...
So, Georgia requires 50%+1 in these runoff elections. I assume they don't allow write-in candidates, then? I remember there was a troll campaign saying "Write in Donald Trump and Don Jr to show you support the president!" But, thiinking about it they can't allow write-ins for the final vote, right? One candidate has to get 50%+1
It is truly amazing how quickly Trump turns his back on you if he thinks you didn't serve him properly. There was no bigger Trump sycophant than Kemp over the last 2 years. They were the tightest of bossom buddies, Kemp literally sent Georgians to die during the pandemic pandering to Trump, and now Kemp can't steal Georgia for Trump and Trump has just utterly swept him under the bus.
GOP about to find out Trumpers only simp for Daddy Trump. Its so goddamn funny.
But the runoffs are in 2021All too good to be true.
I fully expect the dems to lose both races in Georgia because 2020. I'm really hoping that I'm wrong.
By no means do I advocate relaxing and not working our asses off, but I am beginning to wonder on the consolidation at this point. There are clearly Trumpers who are upset and tired of the Republicans who are too pro-democracy for their tastes, but it's really a matter of scale.The GOP always consolidates, never a safe bet here. They'll show up and therefor Dems need to show up even more
This feels like a trap, typical GOP scare tactic on one side and false sense of inevitability for suppression on the other.
