One of the clips in this video is Stacy Abrams refuting that "argument" that what Kelly Loeffler did in dumping stocks that were about to become worth considerably less money at the beginning of the pandemic wasn't so very bad. Loeffler and her husband are worth a lot more than $18 million.

I say the episode just goes to show how unbridled the greed of wealthy folks is. They can't stand to lose even a percent or two of their net worth if they can save it by cheating the system and engaging in insider trading.

That's how you eject incumbents. It takes anger, outrage, it takes a scandal of hip-wader depth.

Both Loeffler and Perdue are on the hook in self-dealing financial behavior.

I like our chances.

LET'S MAKE THE MOST OF IT!

They spoke a big game about all republicans must go. How all bridges are burned.

So, where are the million dollar ads now? Seems they may want a gop senate....

Michael Steel has gone back to the republican line of bulls... They can never be trusted. The only reason, I feel, they came on8 the scene is because they were worried trump was going to cause, he did, serious damage to their Partys image They want their fascism on the down-low. Not a circus baker like trump... "stand back and stand by"...

14. Lincoln Project Post on Georgia Runoffs and Republicans

EXCERPT: The group is now turning its attention to Georgia where two crucial Senate races are in runoffs that could tip the scale for the Senate majority. While Republican candidates may worry about doing anything to alienate Trump's supporters before those elections, Horn said, "We also have to remember that Georgia is a very high bar for Democrats to win. It's going to be an extremely difficult race. [That] does not mean at all that it's impossible."

Looking beyond Georgia or even the day Trump leaves office, Horn and the Lincoln Project's work will be far from over. Trump has fundamentally altered the Republican Party, she said, giving it a rock-solid foundation, despite the controversial platform that earned it. Under Trump, Horn noted that the GOP has become "a party that is as close to authoritarianism as we have ever seen in the history of our country." She expects a day of reckoning for the party and says eventually the party will have to make a choice.

"At some point, if the Republican Party wants to be a serious, influential, leading voice in American politics, they're going to have to eventually choose between Trumpism and democracy, Trumpism and America, Trumpism and the Constitution."

They will vote for her criminal stuff and all, look at how many voted for Trump.

I am embarrassed of 1/2 my country. I hope Georgia does the right thing but I wouldn't count on republican votes for our side no matter what she did.

... why aren't they angry over Chump who's so much worse? I don't get it!

Yes of course dump her- dump all of them. They're all greedy, corrupt, lying scum. No GOP incumbent deserves to be re-elected. Not one.
