Published



It took Donald Trump to turn Georgia into a Democratic state.

It took Trump to turn suburban voters away from Republicans. It took Trump to energize the leftist coalition against Republicans in a way the Left has never been energized before. It took Trump to discourage Republican-leaning citizens actively from voting, by pushing the idea (in effect) that voting was useless because everything was rigged against them anyway. It took Trump to show that he is the biggest loser, and to drag down with him the party he hijacked in 2015-2016.
