Sen. Ossoff today:
"Georgia voters rejected him in 2020, he's been on the war path because he was humiliated by the rebuke that Georgians dealt him. And he was humiliated and furious in particular as a committed lifelong racist that it was black voters in Georgia who are instrumental in his defeat."

OP
Racist Trump acted the same way with black voters in Michigan because he lost there in 2020 after winning in 2016.

He can verbalize in thirty seconds, off the cuff and without hesitation, what so many of us would also say, but needing half an hour and three paragraphs to do it. He combines eloquence and intelligence to such a degree that he must scare the living crap out of any Republican who is searching for a way to put him down.

(9,145 posts)4. 83 percent of Black voters,
in Georgia and elsewhere didn't vote for Trump because 83 percent of us recognized a deceitful, lying, con-man RACIST when we saw one (having had plenty of practice at it, you see).
Unfortunately, in spite of all Trump had said and done, 15 percent had not. No words for em.
(Well, actually, I've a few. But I'll keep em to myself.)
