MS NOW's Jen Psaki unloads on 'horrifying' MAGA Rep's laundry list of controversies

Georgia Republicans have chosen the Trump-endorsed candidate, Congressman Mike Collins, to face off in the Senate contest against Democratic incumbent Jon Ossoff, rejecting Gov. Brian Kemp's pick of former coach Derek Dooley. But they may come to regret that decision soon, MS NOW's Jen Psaki said on Tuesday's edition of The Briefing.As a member of Congress, Mike Collins has used his social media presence to offend just about everybody he can, said Psaki. Among other things, she noted, He's posted in support of throwing an immigrant out of a helicopter. He posted in support of a group of counter-protesters harassing a Black protester ... one of whom taunted that Black student with monkey noises. He once endorsed a post from an antisemitic troll who was attacking a reporter for being Jewish.He has more horrifying social media behavior landing him in trouble, Psaki continued — but all of this is comfortably enough to make him all but unelectable.Psaki went on to quote a recent lament from a Republican strategist to MS NOW, who said, “If you went to a laboratory and tried to create the worst general election candidate for this state and environment possible, you couldn’t do better than Mike Collins,” between his personal baggage and an absolutist anti-abortion stance. He will lose the Atlanta metro in unprecedented fashion, and we have to hope he doesn't take everyone else down with him, the strategist said.On top of all that, Psaki continued, Collins is also a notorious election denier who refuses to accept the outcome of the 2020 presidential election — which by Trump's own admission is why he picked Collins over Dooley, who had acknowledged former President Joe Biden carried Georgia.That was apparently a dealbreaker for Trump, said Psaki. Of course, Trump did in fact lose the state of Georgia in the 2020 election, which isn't something I should have to keep saying six years later. But nevertheless, here we are. - YouTube www.youtube.com
