Republican Doug Collins picked up another key GOP supporter for his U.S. Senate bid on Thursday as former U.S. Rep. Karen Handel endorsed the congressman’s challenge to incumbent Kelly Loeffler.

Handel, who is aiming for a November rematch against Democrat Lucy McBath, called Collins the “best person to represent our values” in the Senate and emphasized his support for anti-abortion legislation. “He stood with me when others would not in my own fight against Planned Parenthood, and I worked side-by-side with Doug to pass important pro-life legislation,” said Handel. “Most importantly, I trust Doug — to stand up for life, to stand with our president and to stand for our Georgia values."

She is among a handful of Republicans to recently break ranks with Gov. Brian Kemp, who appointed Loeffler to the seat in December over Collins and other applicants in part because he hoped she could appeal to suburban women who have fled the party.

1. 74,665 dead US citizens in 3 months. Republicans should be outlawed. They are the dregs of the US.

And we should stop breathing life into them.

3. They have become a criminal organization.

7. They became a criminal organization with the emergence of the Tea Party

It is now a criminal dictatorship and they are no longer even attempting to conceal it.
Trump has about as much chance of losing the election, if they even hold one, as putin would have of losing an election in Russia.

chance in the general. Hope springs eternal...

5. So, Karen

Is endorsing someone because he cares about saving potential lives.
Where do these two stand on saving the lives of people who have already been born such as seniors in nursing homes and first responders, doctors, nurses, hospital staff?
Where did they stand on people who have to choose between food and risk of death because the state won’t pay unemployment to a gym employee or anyone else in a dangerous job who doesn’t go to work?
