    Georgia voters handed the Democrats nearly the whole state government yesterday. Keisha Lance Bottoms beat Republican Rick Jackson for governor, making her the first Democrat to win the office since 1998.

    Trump is proving himself to be quite the Democrat Socialist

    Why do the Democrats hate Trump so much when he is the best Democrat Socialist to ever get elected to the Presidency? They should be loving this guy.
