GA is also one of the states with 2020 election deniers. The state needs to set up some sort of auditing body to ensure proper and timely certification of election results, the conservative ghouls are really banking on rigging electoral votes this time around.

Combine this with the recent footage showing Trump waving to literally nobody so his team can edit that footage later showing him waving to enormous crowds.
We still need to vote though. The interest in his rally's and even him may be mixed overall and waning, but so much gerrymandering and the predisposition of the politically ignorant to simply vote red because the "blue are the bad guys" is crazy.
Hillary lost in 2016 because too many were complacent and were sure he would lose.
100% voting!
If there is video released of Trump waving to nobody, Kamala needs to use this in an attack add….
“No one else stands with weirdos, do you?”
lmao.
You got people standing outside. Look at all the people outside.
realizes someone might actually check
And then they actually pushed the people very far away from the building where we have beautiful cameras set up for the overflow crowds,
The overflow crowds were incredibly large but you wouldn't know them, they go to another school.
but the video didn't catch the moment they pushed them away, for some reason
I'm confused, I thought he told his peoples they didn't have to vote.
I remember when Bernie Sanders filled the Moda Center in Portland and there were another estimated 9,000 people outside.
There were photographs and video to prove it.
Sooo... photos? Video?
Look at all that engagement and excitement only to be squandered by the democratic party so they could ram their bought and paid for politician down our throats instead. Still so sad.
During his remarks at the venue, Trump complained there were “thousands” outside who wished to come in but were denied entry.
The same people who the media denied being at his inauguration, I'm sure… /s
Weird how none of those people at the inauguration were driving or taking public transit. They must've all walked, since the usage metrics for those two don't align at all with what Trump was saying, and there's no way he was ~~lying~~ spreading alternative facts.
The media just needs to start blindsiding the lying bastard in every interview. He expects us to believe that absolutely no one took a photo of these supposed thousands of people outside not allowed to enter? Not a single member of his staff or campaign, no media, not even a random person?
This is the man who lied about having the largest inauguration audience ever
You'd think at least a few of them would xeet it or truth it or whatever it is these people do.
Like, cmon, it's 2024. If you're going to lie about something that thousands of people experienced, at least have a couple of online alibis lined up to support the lie.
Like, seriously. This is gaslighting 101. You'd think they'd have it figured out by now. Weird.
They're empty you dumb shit because you've chased them to the other side.
I finally feel some hope watching this goddamn guy finally self immolate.
That grease fire gonna burn for a while, unfortunately.
No fire deserves that.
I'm sure fire would take one for the team.
What a goddamn weirdo
I kno, such a weird thing to say from an even weirder person.
A very ~~stable genius~~ unstable weirdo.
People dodging bullets.
Literally.
Few weeks ago, people died at his rally.
Maybe sometime can find some security cam footage of those huge crowds that were waiting outside?
No, as Trump pointed out, the libs had made them go a long way away from the outside of the building so that they couldn't be seen.
and a "Fuck You" from GA as well.
This is why he loves his outdoor rallies so much. There are no empty seats when there are no seats to be left empty.
They're going to vote for Harris. That's what they're going to do.
That's what Drumpf was saying, and was trying to rile up his mob for Jan 6 the second.
Biden needs to get the firing squads ready. You take one out that tries to fight and get in anyway and they'll scatter like roaches.
Exactly. Simple. And for this simple act he will direct his supporters in a way that gets people killed, again.
Orange traitor bitch. I hope he suffers.

Why is this poor robot being downvoted?
Waah, waaah, waaaah!!!
If they aren't showing up for his rallies, they probably won't be showing up for the election, either. Wouldn't THAT be a shame?
/sarcastic slashie!
Already setting himself up for The Big Lie pt. 2 for if/when the time comes.
I'm going to go ahead and disagree and say this is at minimum The Big Lie part 3.
His campaign promises the first time around were very, very different. That first campaign and presidency was part 1. Losing the election and denying it and being a total asshat the last 4 years is part 2. Part 3 will be after he loses this next election. Somehow I think he'll try to go for another bout too, even after losing as a sitting fucking president.
Hopefully the republicans can get a more realistic moderate candidate next time. I'm just dreaming of a day where the politics is less divided and more cooperative, a fantasy I know.
I imagine people not voting for trump.
NYT: "Trump agrees to higher attendance at his rallies, who he agrees will make bigger donations to him."
I'm actually shocked he didn't claim that it was the biggest crowd in Georgia's history like how he lied about his inauguration.
