Trump records robocall for special election in Georgia

Source: CBS News

President Trump recorded a robocall paid for by the Republican National Committee that went out Monday in the 6th congressional district race in Georgia where a special election is being held on Tuesday.

“Hello, this is President Donald Trump. Liberal Democrats from outside of Georgia are spending millions and millions of dollars trying to take your Republican congressional seat away from you. Don’t let them do it. Tomorrow, there’s a special election for Congress in Georgia. Only you can stop the super liberal Democrats and Nancy Pelosi’s group and in particular, Jon Ossoff,” Mr. Trump said in the robocall that lasted for more than a minute.

The president continued by warning that Ossoff would raise constituents’ taxes, destroy their health care and “flood our country with illegal immigrants.”

“I need you to get out to the polls tomorrow, April 18, and vote Republican,” he added. “That way we can cut spending and get our economy back on track and keep America safe. It’s already happening. There’s only one way to stop the Washington liberals from taking your congressional seat and your money and your safety and that’s by voting Republican for Congress tomorrow.”

If no candidates get over 50% then there will be a runoff between the top two vote-getters.

should record a robocall. There are a lot of good impersonators out there.

The impersonator does not have to say Ossof's or anyone else's name. The impersonator does not have to identify himself as trump. He should just give a serious, straightforward message telling people to vote for Ossoff or the Democrat of their choice.

The impersonator does not have to be affiliated with any group.
