Not that I thought 2021 couldn't be worse than last year, but losing control of the Senate? Good Lord.
/UPDATE: I agree with PJ Media on this one: Trump calls Georgia runoff illegal and invalid.
Why would Trump deliberately undermine Republican chances to win? What “grand strategy” is at work? It could be as simple as Trump wanting to watch the world burn as he leaves office. More likely, he knows that with the GOP in chaos, he will continue to dominate the right, making any venture he decides to participate in after he leaves office more visible — and more profitable.
Make no mistake, this was a deliberate effort to discourage Georgians from voting and give an already energized and enthusiastic Democratic party more reasons to show up at the polls on election day. More than 3 million votes have already been cast in the state through early voting and mail-in ballots — a majority almost certainly Democratic, given the GOP’s reluctance to embrace those practices.
To put it mildly, Trump isn’t helping.
