Former President Donald Trump said “Happy Easter” in his own way on Sunday, linking his holiday wishes to his allegations of electoral fraud.
“Happy Easter to ALL, including the radical left-wing CRAZIES who rigged our presidential election and want to destroy our country!” Trump said in a statement.
His comments come a day after calling on his supporters to boycott companies such as Major League Baseball, Coca Cola and Delta that have criticized the Georgian republican legislature’s new electoral laws. MLB said it would pull its All-Star game scheduled for this summer in Atlanta.
“Baseball is already losing a lot of fans, and now they are leaving Atlanta with their All-Star Game because they fear the radical left Democrats who don’t want voter ID, which is badly needed, to have anything to do with our election.” Trump said on Saturday.
Boycott baseball and all the awakened companies that interfere in free and fair elections. Do you listen to Coca-Cola, Delta and all! ‘He continued.
Georgia has adopted a series of electoral reform measures to reduce fraud, but the legislation has received widespread criticism from Democrats.
The bill comes just months after President Biden defeated Trump in Georgia’s presidential election by less than 12,000 votes.
It was the first time a Democratic presidential candidate in the Peach State had won since 1992.
In a special election in January, two Democratic Senate candidates – Jon Ossoff and Rev. Raphael Warnock – the incumbent GOPs Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue, putting the Democrats in control of the room.
