It has never been about ideas, principles or coherent policy for the Very Stable Genius. If it had been, he'd take a look at the present situation and say to himself, well, I won't be there to shepherd the initiatives I'm passionate about, but I can apply my energies to seeing that the Senate retains a Republican majority.
But since his sole motivation his entire pathetic life has been self-glorification, he intends to burn it all down on his way out of DC:
President Donald Trump declared the Senate runoff elections in Georgia both “illegal and invalid” in a tweet on Friday, which could dissuade his followers from heading to the polls.
The results of the Jan. 5 vote will determine which party controls the Senate. More than 3 million Georgians have already voted during the state’s early voting period.
Trump issued his baseless conclusion in a Twitter thread Friday night when he attacked the election process in the state, which is controlled by Republicans.
In his slam, Trump wrote that the Georgia “consent decree” is “unconstitutional.” He was referring to a bipartisan agreement forged by election officials in March that helped establish standards for judging valid signatures on absentee ballots. Lawsuits challenging the decree on Trump’s behalf have failed.
“The Georgia Consent Decree is Unconstitutional & the State 2020 Presidential Election ... is therefore both illegal and invalid, and that would include the two current Senatorial Elections,” Trump tweeted.
And let us mention the larger point as well: He intends to do as much damage as possible to the American public's faith in bedrock institutions as possible.
All that flag-hugging was for the benefit of the drooling, zombie-eyed cult followers. He doesn't give the first diddly about this nation.
