She is only elected because she's in an extreme gerrymandered Rightwing district, she couldn't win any statewide election in Georgia. Her campaigning with him would have sunk him.

I will predict she throws her hat in the ring in 2026 for the US Senate against Jon Ossoff.

This vengeful harpy will do anything to remain relevant. The vitriol from that poisonous mouth of hers makes Anne Coulter appear like a Saint.

Was the strategy that he could pull black voters away from Warnock simply because he achieved his fame and fortune outside of politics? Have they already forgotten that it was the electoral vote that Trump won in 2016, and that he lost the popular vote for a second time in 2020 -- and by TWICE as much?

I thought he creamed Warnock in that district.
She somehow thinks she has full statewide appeal, but in some quarters, her involvement might have stimulated more votes for Warnock, as an anti-MTG effort.
She overestimates her broader appeal. Just Like TFG.

I used to sell cash registers there. I am actually surprised she is so popular there. They were not bad people.

I used to do process work at a chemical manufacturing site northeast of Atlanta.
I agree that the people seemed OK. I would share your surprise at her popularity.
But, I still don't think it extends statewide.
TFG didn't win GA and his cult of personality is orders of magnitude greater that any that apply to her.

in Dalton and Rome. She went to a high school 10 miles from our house and South Forsythe was a yearly basketball and football rival of Norcross. Newt Gingrich is the true villain in all of this. He made poltics into a war
