Sen. Loeffler: The Anti Midas
I will admit I’ve been pretty harsh on Senator Kelly Loeffler. Although, let’s be honest, she’s suffered from self-inflicted damage.
And her latest stupid controversy is yet another example that qua Senator, Kelly Loeffler is the anti-Midas (everything she touches turns to s).
Loeffler’s comments only make sense when taken into consideration that she fundamentally misjudged what her appointment meant. She had no constituency and never really sought to build one and now she has to out-Collins Doug Collins.
In an attempt to be something she’s not, she’s also facing a revolt from her employees.
What makes this even worse: there’s simply no way she could not have known this would make her a pariah in a vain attempt to save her other job. So if she loses her election what does she come back to? Being a minority owner of a team that doesn’t want to play for her?
There’s plenty of time until November, yes. But she’s shown plenty of aptitude at saying incredibly stupid stuff. Such as making up some stat that Black Lives Matter (a non-centralized organization) wants to defund the police in five years.
Even as a weird incumbent in yet a weirder race, you don’t want to be trailing your challengers as Sen. Loeffler is. I suppose her strategy is to make sure no one gets 50%+1 because she’s not getting any crossover support.
Kelly Loeffler wants people to think that being a Senator means you can still be an outsider. As a betting man, I’m betting she’ll be an actual outsider in 2021.

This is a curious picture. There is something about Sen. Loeffler in this picture that isn’t quite right. Between the bad makeup and hair, and the adams apple, some people are wondering if Sen. Loeffler is a cis-female.
Literally no one is wondering that.
People project their fantasies (or delusions) all the time….
btw, for politicians, that also goes for fantasies about stuff like how good a job you’re doing, etc.
Sports need to worry about sports and stop making political statements.
note: satire follows:
Dear Pres.,
Pls also keep politics out of sports.
Dear humans,
Let’s all stop trying to be humane, and see each other more as objects for our own limited transactional purposes.
Perhaps you are being sarcastic for once. Free speech about equality and justice is NOT a political statement. Sen. Kelly should look at some of her own campaign blather before bashing what is and isn’t a political statement.
I have a deep and genuine concern for the human race when ppl can’t understand distinctions between social issues and political issues (even tho there can be crossover in certain circumstances), or for that matter, distinctions between socialism and government. Etc. Etc.
I would prescribe education except…folks who think they know either don’t want to learn, or think that education is somehow indoctrination…
Brian Kemp surely thought $20M and a pair of ovaries would show a better return.
