Republican vs Republican Infighting

It’s been a week of Republican vs Republican infighting with the GOP turning on each other and eating their own.
Politics
While Donald Trump continues to cry crocodile tears over his election loss to anyone who will listen, Attorney General William Barr turned on ‘The Donald’ and went public with news that the 2020 presidential election did NOT involve fraud as Trump continues to claim. (Counting down to how many days before Barr is now fired.)
However, it was the antics of Georgia Q-Anon Republicans that stole the show for the week.
Atlanta-based lawyers Lin Wood and (former Trump attorney) Sidney Powell held a rally in Marietta, GA this week telling their fellow Republican voters NOT to vote in the special runoff election which will determine control of the US Senate.
According to Wood and Powell, the election was rigged against Trump and will continue to be rigged. So, it’s useless to ever vote again.
Check out the madness below that has Democrats jumping for joy at the possibility of low GOP voter turnout in Georgia. It’s a doozy!

DJ..(pause)..let me just say -you have really outdid yourself with your choice of topics this week!
You actually covered every topic I had hoped you would..and I have truly enjoyed reading every post…Lol.
We done my friend! Well done…(standing up applauding)!
I concur!
Now let’s get into the *meat* of this story because it really is a doozie…lol
Up to now I have refrained from referring to typical Trump voters as “Rubes” even though the term is used quite often. But frankly, when you look at what is going on in Georgia within the Republican party – the infighting between the leadership and Trump voters (the Repub base) I truly feel that it is most appropriate to go there.
Indeed, they are “Rubes”
You couldn’t make this stuff up if you tried. The *Sidney Powell & Lin Wood Show* is madness on another level. Wikipedia says this about Lin Wood:
Despite his representation of Trump, according to publicly available records, Lin Wood donated to numerous Democratic candidates for office as recently as 2018. Due to his past support of Democrats, including former President Barack Obama, Wood was accused by Breitbart of “sabotage” against Republicans, specifically against Senators David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler in the January 5, 2021, runoff elections for both of Georgia’s U.S. Senate seats. […]
So cutting right to the chase………
Sydney Powell appears to be a genuine lunatic. She ain’t faking it!
What Lin Wood is actually up to is anyone’s guess(?) But the reaction of many Breitbart readers (mostly Trump voters) to the accusation that Lin Wood is a Dem plant is what finally convinced me that they are…”Rubes.”
Instead of Breitbart readers appreciating the heads up and turning on Lin Wood (as I’m sure Breitbart writers expected them to) BB readers tuned on BB and accused BB AND Fox AND Gateway Pundit AND other right-wing media/ and social media source of trying to play them for fools..!?!
I almost fell out of my chair reading the comments!
A sample of BB comments……
BB Reader:
I couldn’t give a rodent’s rectum if Wood voted Democrat in the past. As long as he’s trying to get to the bottom of the election fraud, he has my support. [..]
BB Reader:
I’ve been saying this since the election that Breitbart is a Rino site now(or maybe has been for sometime). These hit pieces are pathetic BB as even Pres Trump voted democrat in the past….You are dead to me now a-holes. [..]
BB Reader:
These sites are all neocon. So is Gateway Pundit, sorry to say. We need a TRUE nationalist site! [..]
BB Reader:
Why isn’t BB reporting all the whistleblowers stepping up to quash the “Big Steal”? Also why are they not reporting the big press conference yesterday in Atlanta? It was very inspiring to hear Lin Wood, Sidney Powell and Georgia State Rep Vernon Jones declare “we will never concede” and “WE WILL WIN”.[…]
And just one more sample………
BreitBart Reader
BB is not what it used to be, they are similar now to Fox News. I would like to see Lin Wood as the new Attorney General and according to Steve Bannon, Sydney Powell was selected to be the new FBI director which would be great. I would also like to see General Flynn as the new CIA director.
The runoff election makes no sense if the Dems do the same thing as before, flood the zone with mail in ballots and use the Dominion machines. Lin Wood is exactly right about that. Where is the Republican leadership, many of them probably don’t care if Trump loses in a fraudulent election.
Besides if it’s true that military intelligence (Kraken 305th battalion) is involved with this and knows that the election was compromised by foreign interference, Trump’s 2018 executive order gives him the power to stop everything in its tracks, confiscate evidence, start criminal proceedings and begin the process to have a new election conducted in a way that eliminates fraud. […]
I’m hearing Lin Wood is a longtime donor to Democratic interests. Is it possible he’s playing up MAGA ignorance in order to tilt the election for Ossoff and Warnock?
“Is it possible he’s playing up MAGA ignorance in order to tilt the election for Ossoff and Warnock?”
It’s hard to say Saleem, given his history of having donated $$$ to candidates of both parties.
But yes, it’s certainly possible he’s doing just that!
