Trump "gad to be of help" in Georgia runoff...DESPITE the fact that...

...as MSNBC noted last night, the hardline teabagger Trump candidates got their asses handed to them, and the "R" votes were NOT votes for Trump.

Still, they said last night that if a Republican won...which they didn't...or if it went to a runoff, he would take credit for it.

And he did.

Hate to burst your bubble, but 51% voted for someone besides Ossoff.

So it's pretty close. Ossof has until June to increase his gotv efforts. During that time, Trump will be screwing up even more. Some of those Trump voters may not vote for handle and simply stay home.
