Georgia’s runoff was a resounding rebuke of Trumpism. Will Republicans hear it? | Lloyd Green

Come January, Mitch McConnell and his Republican colleagues will face a 51-49 Senate Democratic majority - making Biden's job a little easier

Tuesday delivered a spate of bad news for Donald Trump and the Republican party. First, Bennie Thompson, chairman of the January 6 committee, announced that criminal referrals to the US Department of Justice would be forthcoming. A few hours later, a Manhattan jury convicted the Trump Organization on 17 counts of tax fraud, conspiracy and falsification. According to prosecutors, the former president was complicit.

And now, the incumbent senator Raphael Warnock has prevailed in a hard-fought runoff. Georgia again rejected Herschel Walker and Donald Trump, his patron.
