Now it's time on the Lean to the Left podcast for some straight talk about South Carolina and Georgia politics where things are always interesting with such players as Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, Stacy Abrams, Sen. Lindsey Graham and Rep. Tom Rice, the right-winger who voted to impeach Trump.
Our guest is Robert Thompson, host of the Got Damn Liberals podcast, which largely covers Georgia politics but strays across state lines more often than not. Robert is an astute observer of politics in the South, especially his home state of Georgia.
Our discussion hits on everything from President Biden's nomination of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to the U.S. Supreme Court to MTG, Stacy Abrams, Rice and Trump's vendetta against him, critical race theory and much, much more.
Thompson discusses the embarrassment of MTG and the effort by Trump to bully Raffensperger into finding him enough votes to carry the state that he lost, and his outlook for Abrams to win the Georgia governor's race is less than rosy.
Take a listen.
