No. He’s RINO scum, an assistant Democrat.

Are the most plausible paths to President Trump returning to office in ‘24 including winning Georgia or no?

Never heard of him...exactly. And there’s a reason for that.

During his time in Georgia’s House of Representatives, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported that Scott was the first Republican to join Democrats to try and remove the Confederate battle emblem in Georgia’s flag.

Absolutely NOTHING.

Loeffler got her job right after Kemp, miraculously, was able to take care of all of his campaign debt from 2018. Some might be aware that her husband...she did f**k and marry the boss...heads the group that owns the NYSE and was some type of economic advisor to Bush2.

Then we had Kemp and the rest...not much more needs to be said about those POSs, that hasn’t already been said.

Perdue...not sure what to say about him. He coulda been a contenda, he chose not to.

That is an Air Force base and a whole lot of farms and hayfields. With a few sprinkles of solar farms which will soon run out of usefulness.

If no individual within the conference can secure more than 2/3 of the Republicans, they may have to look outside the conference for a Speaker.

I suggest that they should consider Lee Zeldin

Says Scott is his congressman and had nothing good to say about him.

First, how in the world can you listen to Erickson. He’s a disaster.

Second, I’m happy that you suffered through that. If Erickson is saying this guy sucks, then you know he sucks. Erickson is about as RINO as they get. And since this guys Conservative creds suck, he’s got to be really bad.

I don’t think they are leanings. Way too much RINO.

It’ll be interesting to see what happens to him. Reps a very rural area and 2 large AF bases. But there are probably as many cows in that district as there are humans. But that is very much Trump Country from the signs I see when I’ve driven down there.

But, most folks don’t pay all that much attention to who they’re voting for, especially here in Georgia. All a Republican candidate has to do to win in Georgia is talk about God, GUNS, low taxes, GUNS, 2nd Amendment, the Bible, GUNS and a few other things.

Now that he’s running he might be outing himself and just might get a challenger. And maybe the voters down there will decide he just ain’t Conservative enough for them.

I do not fault a black person for that.

Sorry for thinking this was about Tim Scott. No excuses for Austin Scott.

Trust me, it pains me. During the 12-3:00 time (in upstate
SC), which was RUSH time, is now Charlie Kirk the first hour, then Dennis Prager for the next two, when he’s on. On our other local station, it’s Erik from 12-3:00. I stomach him, but can’t stand that he is anti-Trump and anti-Matt G. But at times, he can be spot-on with a few topics.

From what I’ve read, Scott has been in politics since the age of 26. I have not read where he has held a real job outside politics. Not good.
