Highlights from President Trump's super spreader event in Georgia last night.

Opens up with some red meat for the base:

"Let me begin by wishing you all a very Merry Christmas. Remember the word? Remember? We started five years ago, and I said, "You're gonna be saying 'Christmas' again." We say it proudly again. Although they'll, they'll be trying to take that word again out of the vocabulary. We're not gonna let 'em do that."

To the President's credit he gives the Georgia run-off Republican candidates a couple of minutes out of his speech BEFORE he launches in to his real reason for being there, the one-hour and forty minute construction of a most impressive monument to the art of sore losing.

"We're gathered here tonight to ensure -- A very important word, ensure. Because these are two great, great people, that I know so well, and respected by everybody in Washington and beyond. That David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler win the most important congressional runoff probably in American history. I really believe that. I think it's an American -- There's never been a time like this where you have two at one time. At least you have two beauties. And you know what, you also have two beauties running against him, but beauty in a different way. They're two beauties. But there's never been, uh, a case where a state has had this prominence on Senate races, 'cause they're never together. And, uh, this is something that's very important, and you have to get out, you have to vote, you have to make sure you have every vote counted. Everyone has to count. And you gotta make sure they don't throw away any ballots. You gotta make sure that when they collect the ballots and they start bragging about how many ballots they already have, you gotta make sure your Secretary of State knows what the hell he's doing. And you gotta make sure your Governor gets a lot tougher than he's been. He's gotta get a lot tougher. Because at stake in this election is control of the U.S. Senate, and that really means control of this country. The voters of Georgia will determine which party runs every committee, writes every pieces of legislation, controls every single taxpayer dollar. Very simply, you will decide whether your children will grow up in a socialist country or whether they will grow up in a free country. And I will you this, uh, socialist is just the beginning for these people. These people wanna go further than socialism. They wanna go into a communistic form of government."

To the heart of the matter:

"But, listen to this. These are the facts, and each fact is like, irrefutable, and it, it means win. President Trump receives [inaudible] one of the most brilliant political people. President Trump received more votes than any previous incumbent president in history, and we lost, and we lost. So we receive more votes than anybody in history, any incumbent in history, and we lost supposedly."

Go onnnnnn:

"I won them all by a lot. And I have to say, if I lost, I'd be a very gracious loser. If I lost, I would say, "I lost." And I'd go to Florida and I'd take it easy, and I'd go around, and I'd say, "I did a good job." But you can't ever accept when they steal and rig and rob. Can't accept. [Crosstalk] Well, the Democrats did try to steal the presidency."

They're getting a little restless, Donnie. Reel 'em back in:

"Oh, they won, I don't think so. Okay, I don't think so. We knew that a long time ago. They wanna take away your jobs, take away your borders, take away your freedom, take away your religion. And they even wanna take away your beautiful Christmas that we just got back. I have to be very careful, you know when I sort of imitate that, right?"

Show me the money!!!

"I mean, it's really, uh -- It's very, uh -- Well, of course, I just raised $250 million, I should say. I didn't raise it, it just came. I said, "How're we doing on that front?" you know, because we didn't get great publicity. Boy, were they -- They were so happy, these guys. Don't -- You might not be happy in a few weeks, you know, you might not. No, they were so happy. I said, "How's fundraising going?" They said, "Sir, uh, about $250 million." I said, "$250 million what?" Dollars. How the hell did that happen? Because people believe in what we're doing, that's why."

On locally grown produce:

"Who does cucumbers around here? Because I like cucumbers. I'm the only one. I like cucumbers."

Senators Loeffler and Perdue, are called to the stage by Trump. In a 100 minute+ plus rally, each is allowed exactly 30 seconds to praise Trump, before the President continues the discredited litany of false assertions regarding his own election loss, including watching along with the audiences a poorly produced OANN video that was somewhat jarring to see airing on FoxNews, where I viewed this rally. Fox actually is able to produce professional-looking polished propaganda, but they're on the outs with Trump currently. They know what they did.

"The next great victory for our movement begins right here on January 5th, and then we are going to win back the White House. We're gonna win it back. And we're gonna take back the House in 2022. And then in 2024 and hopefully, I won't have to be a candidate, we're gonna win back the White House again. A friend of mine said, "Oh, don't worry about it, sir. You're way up in the polls. You'll win in 2024." I said, "I don't wanna wait till 2024. I wanna go back three weeks."

Good luck with that.
