Donald Trump hosts a “Victory Rally” for Sens. Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue ahead of the Georgia runoff election.
The event features Trump’s routine election fraud claims along with propaganda material from Newsmax and One America News repeating disproven election conspiracies and attacking the Republicans’ opponents.
“They cheated and rigged our presidential election, but we’ll still win,” Mr. Trump said, offering no evidence but nonetheless prompting about 10,000 supporters gathered on the tarmac at a regional airport to chant, “Stop the Steal!”
Speaking for an hour and 40 minutes, the president did read a series of scripted lines about the two Republican senators, David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler, and repeatedly urged his supporters in Georgia to vote next month, even mentioning the deadlines for the mail-in ballots he has so often scorned.

The crowd was given signs that read “Save America,” the name of Trump’s new Political Action Committee.
