Well Trump still controls the rubes in my county

He endorsed a challenger to State senator Linda Rogers who was 1 of those that voted against redistricting. Rogers’ challenger came out of the gate strong in his opening ad calling “the left” an “existential threat to the country and our way of life”. So needless to say this guy is a crackpot and other than being endorsed by Trump and the he reads his Bible in every ad I know nothing about what he wants to do. I guess that’s the new GOP, motto should be “whatever Trump wants I want”. Well he won tonight 59-41% so I’m expecting even more crazy from my state.

also. All the R candidates suck up to Felon4547. Brad Raffensberger has held back, though. If the ads say it, it's because campaign managers and internal polls are painting that picture.
