President Trump probably didn’t hurt Republicans Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue in their Georgia runoffs on Monday night, but he wasn’t there to “do no harm.” He was there to help heave them through the finish line, and anyone who watched his mega-rally couldn’t honestly say for certain that he did it.
The first 30 minutes of Trump’s speech were absolutely fantastic. He naturally griped about his belief that he was robbed of his bid for reelection two months ago by way of a confluence of massive voter fraud and dubious court rulings, for which there is evidence and arguments for both. But he framed his grievance in the context of Republicans needing to ensure that such an occurrence fails to repeat itself in the Georgia Senate runoffs on Tuesday and in future elections as well.
