Pence Joins Parade Of GOPers Bucking Trump To Support Kemp

Republicans who aren’t named Donald Trump see the value in an incumbent.

Just 10 days out from the Republican gubernatorial primaries in Georgia, incumbent Gov. Brian Kemp announced that former Vice President Mike Pence will headline his campaign rally on May 23, the night before the state’s primary elections.

Now I think I know where Pence went when he fled DC after Biden was inaugurated. I hate Mike Pence a lot; I think Mike Pence is an idiot. But damn it, I owe him a big debt of gratitude for not handing this country to the giant orange shit demon.

> Trump, however, is a grievance-driven political machine.

Nice description, Nicole. Li’l Donnie Once Was seems to be losing his luster among marginally sane goopers.

Stacey’s got this.

With tfg it’s like playing rock, paper, scissors with a cave man. He always goes for rock.

It would seem so, but if grievance against Democrats, liberals, etc. outweighs these internal conflicts, it might not make a lot of difference. They’ll set aside their squabbles induced by the primary battles and vote R just for the pleasure of screwing over the libs. I don’t see these guttersnipes staying home just because their fav didn’t win the primary. That’s what Dems might do. If many MAGA voters stay home, It’s more likely because Trump, himself is not on the ballot.

Kemp goes for the most exciting star he can find. Evidently Pat Boone was unavailable.

Perhaps the GOP Wall will not break and there will be little shake-up…or maybe a shift.

OT

If Pence wanted fame, that line about “not getting into that car” is priceless for a film.
