  • Kelly Loefler has actually never won an election

    A few more Kelly Loeffler facts 4 da lulz:

    • She is the richest Senator and campaigns in her personal private jet
    • Her insider dealing will likely catch up with her now
    • She boasted about being the most right wing Senator (including a fucking bizarre advert starring Genghiz Khan, where she out-right winged him)
    • She posed with a KKK member last month
    • OK, former KKK member - he just runs a far-right race hate group now
    • She posed with a bunch of armed 3%ers last month
    • She hangs around with Marjorie Greene, that QAnon freak from Florida
    • Last week she ran an advert which darkened the skin of her opponent
    • She is the first Georgia Rep to lose to a Black guy
  • She is the richest Senator and campaigns in her personal private jet

    There's so many rich people like this. What's the matter with them? I always think they must have absolutely no imagination; why aren't they off living in utter luxury, or climbing mountains, or saving orangutans or something?

    Instead they get their fulfillment from making peoples lives that much harder.

  • Also - siphoning off public funds to family/friends and massive insider trading.

    Isn't it often (quite apart from wanting yet more wealth/influence) that political power is attractive because it's something they don't have yet? Also, if you assume that, while few wealthy people are as damaged as Trump, she does have a secret craving to be/feel popular and not just wealthy, that people actually like her, I'd say that's more than enough motivation.

    Yeah - but to what end? She could have been doing whatever anyone could ever want to, instead she tied herself to a stressful civil service office for some stretch of time.

    Well you might find it stressful, but you're just an ordinary oik, right? These people see themselves as 'high achievers' and better than others, e.g. they don't even know the meaning of 'stress'. That, and it's quite possible that they don't actually feel the pressure of public service and/or do a terrible job in such a position.

  • If billionaires don't fight for the rights of the wealthy, who will?
