President Donald Trump is in campaign form and is encouraging voters in Georgia to get out and vote in the Senate runoff election to keep Republicans in control of the United States Senate.
The president appeared at a rally in Valdosta, Georgia on Saturday and encouraged voters to vote for Sens. David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler as he also insisted that the presidential was robbed from him.
“There’s never been a case where a state has had this prominence on senate races. Never together, and this is something that’s very important and you have to get out and you have to vote,” he said. “If you don’t vote, the socialists and the communists win.”

As the president encouraged Georgia Republicans to vote in the runoff election on Jan. 5, he continued to say that he was the victim of a “rigged” election. It sounded, for a moment, that he admitted that Biden won before he corrected himself.
“Let me tell you this election was rigged and we can’t let it happen to two of the greatest most respected people in Washington,” he said as the crowd chanted “Stop the steal” from the crowd. The Democrats “cheated and they rigged our presidential election. But we will still win it,” he said.
