Gov. Brian Kemp formally announced his selection of Kelly Loeffler on Wednesday, pushing aside intense criticism from hard-core Trump advocates who wanted Kemp to appoint Rep. Doug Collins, one of Trump’s staunchest defenders in Congress


Trump pushed him over the top for a win against Stacey Abrams, then Kemp turns around and stabs Trump in the back by appointing a RINO never Trumper.

People saying Doug Collins might primary her in 2020

What was his reasoning in not appointing Collins?

Kemp thinks she might get the women vote in the next election.

Kemp is a backwoods retard that only won because he was against such a weak dem.

He still almost lost despite how shitty gap was.

Word on the street is he's pandering to suburban white women. That can be the only explanation or somebody has some dirt on him. He nominated someone who is pro abortion and gave alot of money to Piere Delecto

He was trying to diversify the "white men" image of the GOP. He even understand it's a gamble because her politics are an unknown. Also her husband being l-o-a-d-e-d was a factor.

Her bio is pretty unimpressive. She's a rich dude's wife and that's about it.

I wasn’t impressed with her press conference. She wasn’t persuasive and came off as meek.

Erik Erikson loves her but he's a never trumper and he was wrong about the election in 2016 and he's usually wrong about most things but he's is an "expert"

I'd look into money trails to figure this out.

I had to look up who that is, but yeah, I'm sure everybody in Atlanta loves her. If you want to be on the gala/cocktail party list she's the sort of person you have to suck up to. I just don't see anything impressive in her resume besides marrying the CEO two years after being hired.

Appointees to finish terms that are new to political campaigning usually always have a very rough time in the coming election.

I hope I’m wrong but this feels like Georgia is heading for its own Rispone moment.

WSB radio in the ATL. He's on in the evening when I commute. I only have to listen to him long enough to get the local traffic report. He's terrible
