Georgia had some Republican Party people come out this weekend and here’s the some of the results….
GOP Gov Kemp did NOT take heat fro the November election….
GOP took some mild heat for not helping Trump steal the election…
House Rep. Marjorie Greene came out unscathed …
The new party people in attendance means the Grand ole Party is alive and well after Trump’s loss and Democratic US Senate gains in the Red ah, ? …Purple state?
The grassroots effort to punish Gov. Brian Kemp largely fizzled at key Republican meetings across the state this weekend even as record crowds of activists continued a relentless focus on former President Donald Trump’s lies about Georgia’s election results.
Fury over Trump’s narrow defeat combined with anger at President Joe Biden’s administration helped bring a surge of new faces to the weekend meetings, held in 13 of Georgia’s 14 congressional districts. Many speakers repeated Trump’s false claims of widespread election fraud in Georgia, which have been repeatedly debunked.
The uptick in participation evoked memories of the round of Republican meetings in 2016, when Trump brought legions of new conservative supporters to sleepy party gatherings often dominated by establishment figures or long-standing volunteers.
In west Georgia’s 3rd Congressional District, former state Sen. Josh McKoon asked for a show of hands and was surprised to find more than half of the 274 delegates had never attended a convention before….

A bunch of new, angry Georgia crackers all in with Trump.
If Trump orders them to get rid of Kemp?
He will be in for a major fight for renomination.
Keith says
He did alright?? Why? Because they didn’t lynch him?
Scott P says
The more these angry rednecks come out the more it turns off the growing urban/suburban base in the Atlanta metro area.
Keith says
Photos have emerged showing Republican Congressman Andrew Clyde, who compared the January 6th insurrection at the Capitol to an average tourist visit, barricading himself in his office during the event.
The stupid is strong with this one.
Zreebs says
Clyde of course knows it was not like a tourist visit. He just feels he needs to play this game so as not to upset some people – whether they are Trump, the insurrectionists (especially those in his district) and the insurectionist sympathizers.
Too bad nobody in GOP leadership can speak out about this nonsense.
jamesb says
They Lie…..
They follow their leader who says it’s alright
jamesb says
ALL this lying WILL eventually come back to bite GOPer’s like it did costing Trump his job…
Scott P says
Like a battered spouse
Democratic Socialist Dave says
How many fingers do you see, Winston?
The Party says five.
How many fingers, Winston?
Zreebs says
Clyde should have invited the Republican tourists into his office and let them shit on his desk like the insurrectionists did elsewhere.
jamesb says
DAMN Z!?
My Name Is Jack says
After several fits and starts…
Sen .Lindsay Graham says he accepts the results of the election and that “2020 is over for me.”
jamesb says
He REALY SAID THAT???
If he doesn’t double back i’m gonna say to myself (u got THAT Right Dog)
jamesb says
Oh Shit!
I will post this Hill piece in a few hours and give the SC senator time to think….
Again?
I HAVE said here that Graham ALWAYS tracks back to working with Democrats….
Such a statement from him IS A BIG FUCKING DEAL…
If he sticks with it….
It’s a direct diss of Trump and his kool-aid drinking supporters..
My Name Is Jack says
Well before you celebrate he also said in the same statement that he was now interested in “voting reform “i e, Republican voting suppression.
Yeah he is really interested in working with Democrats .
jamesb says
I’m waiting for a few hours
REALLY…
jamesb says
And the comments have NOT gone anywhere right now in the media…..
Hmmmmmm?
