Georgia Lieutenant Gov. Geoff Duncan (R) thinks a certain former president is to blame for the ever-growing possibility that the GOP loses the Georgia Senate race for Sen. Raphael Warnock’s (D-GA) seat thanks to nominee Herschel Walker’s burgeoning scandal over an abortion he paid for.
I’ll go one more: they put the idiot in charge, and courted a bunch of idiots who support him. Now the four or five remaining non-idiot Republicans are discovering that playing with idiots doesn’t make anyone smarter. Who woulda thunk?
Well Duncan sounds like he gets it. Many of his fellow GOP leaders, do not. The best way for them to learn is to continually lose elections. I am tired of reading about their machiavellian plots to control our elections. If Democratic voters turn out in massively high numbers , Republicans will lose, at that point, it’s simple math.
For Duncan, the problem is not that Walker is disastrously incompetent, but that Walker is so blatantly, in-your-face disastrous, that he might lose the election for the R’s, despite all the money, excuses, and Fox fawning. Betcha Duncan is still voting for him.
Yes and no. Duncan is miffed only because Walker is such a train wreck of a candidate—not because Trump chose him.
The GQP “leaders” are concerned with only one thing—getting back into power running Congress so they can rig the system further to cement their power permanently.
They don’t give a rat’s round rear about any candidate as long as that candidate supports tier ongoing power grab.
