Georgia Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan (R) on Thursday criticized fellow Republicans in his state for finding themselves in hot water upon the passage of the state’s new voting overhaul law, which he said can be attributed to the failure to refute former President Trump’s election fraud falsehoods during the 2020 presidential election cycle.
Duncan concluded Republicans who supported the legislation “may be afraid of high turnout”
When he’s right, he’s right.
Keep digging!
Whoops truth sneaked out…retraction in 1 2 3
In other words, “we need to abandon our entire current platform.”
Bobby Jindal says hi!
Well, I guess this guy isn’t planning on a long career in GA politics…
(That being said, good on him for speaking up!)
So he can fly Delta now?
Special discount for Republicans fleeing Georgia.
So I guess the legislature is cutting off it’s nose to spite its face with this move.
The entire GOP Platform is Donald Trump.
But that hides the real problem caused by the establishment GOP, when you represent less than 1% of voters on economic issues, you are left pandering to the racists, religious bigots, misogynists, xenophobic and the worst crooks in society. Hence the need to reduce those voting to win elections.
As long as Mitch McConnell is the Republican leader in the Senate, there really is little else Republicans can do but try other than democratic means to stay in power.
“Special discount for Republicans fleeing Georgia.”
Maybe not.
"The Georgia State House passed a bill that would eliminate tax breaks for Delta Airlines for jet fuel. The vote was 97-73 and moves onto the state Senate. "
Hmm…so does this mean he thinks the trumpers will no longer be in charge of the Repubs come 2022?
I can only assume this is some kind of political calculation.
Whenever I finally fly again, this might inspire me to fly Delta.
Probably not, but might.
“Unfortunately, Republicans fell into the trap set by the left and allowed them to make the bill into something that it’s not,” Duncan said.
So we made this a voter suppression law when it was only a helpful voting enhancement suggestion? We’re so dastardly!
I’d say so. One of the major businesses in the state and they want to punish it.
Dumb dumb dumb. Someone should offer Delta an incentive to relocate their hub.
Delta announces all future flights in and out of Atlanta will have at least three stop-overs.
Republicans, even the apparently sentient ones, all have a tell. They “fell into the trap” set by the left? Really. We made them do it? Like rapists are trapped by their victims.
Nothing to see here. Nothing at all.
Hmmmm… Somewhere warm, south, and non-Republican…
Cuba?
