'Did Stalin write this?' Internet torches Trump's call to 'purge' GOP of dissenting voices

Donald Trump on Saturday called for the Republican party to "purge" individuals who oppose him, leading to widespread condemnation online. The former president over the weekend took to his own social media network, Truth Social, to slam Georgia Republicans who have opposed him since his alleged efforts to undermine the state's results in the 2020 election, which Trump lost to President Joe Biden. "Congratulations to Georgia GOP Chair, Josh McKoon, for going after the failed former Lieutenant Governor of Georgia, who realized he could never win again, and quit his run for Office - His name is Geoff Duncan," Trump wrote. "He is a total lightweight, and went to work at a low salary for Fake News CNN. His sole function is to knock Donald J. Trump, but people don’t want to hear him, or that, and it’s one of the many reasons that CNN’s Ratings are so low (although, Jake Tapper and Dana Bash were very fair to me on the Crooked Joe Biden Debate)." ALSO READ: We asked 10 Republican senators: ‘Is Kamala Harris Black?’ Things got weird fast. He continued, suggesting that "Georgia should throw this 'bum' out of the Party." "He is unelectable and not respected by anyone, other than your lightweight Governor, Brian Kemp who, if it wasn’t for me, would have never been Governor," Trump then added. "We have to purge the Party of people that go against our Candidates, and make it harder for a popular Republican President to beat the Radical Left Lunatics. Geoff Duncan is a loser who is disintegrating on his own. Congratulations to Josh McKoon for purging our Party of Misfits and people that don’t want to see us succeed!" In a follow-up post, Trump targeted Brad Raffensperger, Georgia Secretary of State, who infamously received a call in which Trump asked him to "find" 11,000 votes. "Brad Raffensperger has to do his job, and make sure this Election is not stolen. Brian Kemp should focus his efforts on fighting Crime, not fighting Unity and the Republican Party! His Crime Rate in Georgia is terrible, his Crime Rate in Atlanta is the worst, and his Economy is average," Trump wrote. "He should be seeking UNITY, not Retribution, especially against the man that got him the Nomination through Endorsement and, without whom, he could never have beaten Stacey Abrams. He and his wife didn’t think he could win. I said, 'I’m telling you you’re going to win.' Then he won, he was happy, and his wife said, 'Thank you Sir, we’ll never be able to make it up to you!' Now she says she won’t Endorse me, and is going to 'write in Brian Kemp’s name.' Well, I don’t want her Endorsement, and I don’t want his. They’re the ones who got Fani Willis and her boyfriend all 'jazzed up' and ready to go. He could have ended that travesty with a phone call, but he doesn’t want to end it because he’s a bad guy." He continued: "Think of it, I got this guy elected and he did not want to do what the State Senate wanted on Election Integrity. He works with Raffensperger, he works with Geoff Duncan—It’s all a team. I truly believe they would rather see the Republican Party lose than win!" In response to Trump's comment about purging certain GOP officials, independent journalist Aaron Rupar asked, "Did Stalin write this?" Writer Eric Kleefeld said, "Liquidating the Never Trumpers as a class." Conservative Army Iraq War Veteran Peter Henlein said, "Don’t get mad at me or anyone else on the right when we call out Trump’s bulls--- because it’s August 3rd. We are 3 months from Election Day……and Trump is attacking two term Georgia Governor and ultra solid conservative Brian Kemp. Wake up. Trump hates conservatives. He wants them out the GOP."
