The fact that we don’t have a clear front runner by now is a failure of the GOP.

Trump probably saw that LSU Tennessee finish and was like naw

Iirc should UT have even been close enough for LSU to luck out by a mistake like that, and in BR??

Dooley is a lawyer, and pretty sharp. Prick probably but still pretty sharp.

I want Herschel, he’s a cool guy, and he’s 100% a Trump loyalist

Kemp has been one of the best governors in Georgia in over 50 years.

Maybe Kemp knows his electorate better than Trump.

Aren’t Ron Rick’s and Violent Hip Swivel Georgia baws?

Week men will vote for another week man.

I’m no fan of our establishment GOP, but our state legislature and governor did some of the same positive shite people ooh and ah over RDS about, before RDS did it. I wouldn’t call them RINOS, more like traditional establishment conservatives that look upon us America First types as ruffians.


Well you need to work on your message because after the events in Georgia over the last several years the rest of the country thinks Republicans in Georgia are a bunch of f-ing idiots

Trump gave us Herschel Walker so no he’s not right as usual. Not to mention weak David Perdue. Trump is the reason we have two Dem senators now.

I don’t think winning a GA senate seat is an impossibility for the GOP. However, the demographics of Georgia with all those white moderates and minority liberals around Atlanta make it difficult to run a candidate the MAGA base would love.

The future of Georgia state level positions is probably more RINO according to the MAGA sensibilities.

I don't have any confidence in whoever Trump selects but Dooley frankly seems like the type Trump would draft/support (not in a good way).

Hopefully they can find the right dude and get on the same page.

The former Tennessee Head Coach Derek Dooley? I haven't heard that name in years.

I thought for sure Kemp was going to run as he’d win easily. I have zero confidence in Trump with his history of picking candidates here.
