GA-SEN 2020 Class III Megathread: She Who Loeffs Last

[QAnonKelly]

The AJC is saying she’s been flying around on her private jet that lists for $7m that she just paid for in cash in December. Her office confirmed she owns it but didn’t say how much she paid for it.

What will good ole' boys Cletus and Jim Bob think of that?

Probably not too well saying even Perdue always flies commercial (and I know this for a fact).

DeKalb County CEO Michael Thurmond will NOT enter the Senate race: https://www.ajc.com/blog/politics/the-jolt-michael-thurmond-will-seek-election-dekalb-ceo-forgoing-senate-bid/Ra2Y0oTaBkSxXFsXsnuLaK/.  Thurmond would have been a significant challenger for the Democratic nomination.

That's good. Some more ppl need to drop bc it's so crowded already.

[QAnonKelly]

Has anyone seen this anti-Collins ad about medicare for all? The only time I watch live tv is at work and I can't pause it to see who's paying for it.

[QAnonKelly]

I just tried to call her DC and Atl offices. The DC line was busy and the the ATL one sent me to voicemail. I guess a lot of people are calling.

This has to be one of the most ratio’d tweets of all time.

[QAnonKelly]

This is not only a terrible answer that does not excuse profiting off of a public health disaster, but also has the added spice of being both terribly out of touch/elitist and also like she makes no decision on her own and does not think for herself.

Amazing that she is willing to dump bottomless money on a pointless Senate campaign but not on a decent crisis communication strategist, especially given the threat this poses to both her and her husband's careers.

Loeffler is a disaster and this saga is an incredibly bad look for Brian Kemp.

If she's telling the truth, shouldn't it be easy to post her communications with her accountant/broker, right?

[QAnonKelly]

Is three weeks in office the shortest anyone's ever gone before self imploding?

[QAnonKelly]

Has anyone actually gotten through to her office? Last I checked the Atlanta’s VM box was full and the DC was directing to the VM box. I left a couple of “lock her up” messages myself.

[QAnonKelly]

Her ATL mail box is still conveniently full.

[QAnonKelly]

She finally cleared out her ATL voicemail box if anyone wants to leave her a "lock her up" message before it gets full again.

Loeffler reports more stock sales amid insider trading allegations

The largest transactions — and the most politically problematic — involve $18.7 million in sales of Intercontinental Exchange stock in three separate deals dated Feb. 26 and March 11. Loeffler is a former executive with ICE, and her husband, Jeff Sprecher, is the CEO of the company, which owns the New York Stock Exchange among other financial marketplaces. During the same time period reflected on reports filed late Tuesday, the couple also sold shares in retail stores such as Lululemon and T.J. Maxx and invested in a company that makes COVID-19 protective garments.

At least Martha Stewart knows how to cook really well.

The crazy thing is that this is absolutely a minuscule percentage of her net worth. To use round numbers, let’s say she’s worth $500m and sold $4m worth of stock. That’s .08% and not even accounting for the fact that her husband is also worth somewhere in the $500m ballpark.  $4m sounds like a lot to us plebes but when you’re worth this much, it’s a rounding error. She’s gonna lose a senate seat for something she did three weeks in and is looking at prison time over a f**king rounding error.

Edit: She sold $19m so it’s .38% but my larger point still stands.

As she deserves to.

I’m sure she’s got a lawyer for this now too. Good lawyers cost money and let’s say she does end up getting a fine or something (not saying she will), that $19m could be gone in lawyer fees and a settlement.

(puts on math pedant hat)

Check your decimal places.    $19m is 3.8% of $500m (and $4m is 0.8%).

Yeah you're right, I wrote it out wrong

lmfao

In an Axios story about the Trump/Kemp beef, someone who works for Collins says according to their polls, he’s up by about 2x on her.

[QAnonKelly]

AJC got their hands on an internal poll that has Loeffler and Warnock tied at 11 with Collins at 29.

[QAnonKelly]

Some ppl really need to drop out on the D side

[QAnonKelly]

If Lieberman is the Dem in the runoff, that would be a nightmare for the DSCC.

I got polled on the phone about an hour and a half ago and he was the only D I told them I disapproved of.

[QAnonKelly]

From Politico, you can't make this up:

Loeffler is kicking off a massive ad campaign that promotes her response to the coronavirus pandemic...The ad also leans into her personal wealth, highlighting the fact she gave $1 million to a local hospital and that she flew Georgians home on her private plane.

Extremely relatable.

Ahh yes, I just love flying people around on my private jet.

[QAnonKelly]

Loeffler Got Lucrative Parting Gift From Public Company en Route to the Senate.

The parent company of the New York Stock Exchange, which her husband runs, changed compensation terms to give Kelly Loeffler, a top executive, awards worth millions of dollars as she left for Congress.

Lmao this lady is ridiculous and the hits just keep coming.

[QAnonKelly]

Look who just turned over a bunch of info to Uncle Sam

[QAnonKelly]

Loeffler dropping out would be the smart thing for the GOP but idk if she, Kemp, or McConnell want to admit they were wrong

[QAnonKelly]

Either he or his team does a really good job at running his social media.
