Did Trump cost himself the election in Georgia?

Not that it would have changed the overall result but I think there's a delicious irony in the fact that Trump may have cost himself the election in Georgia.

President Trump likely lost the election in Georgia because his comments on mail-in voting led some Republican voters to avoid casting ballots, Georgia secretary of state Brad Raffensperger told Atlanta-based WSBTV on Tuesday.

Trump repeatedly railed against absentee voting leading up to the election, and Raffensperger believes that if he didn't sow distrust in the system, he could've picked up Georgia's 16 electoral votes, arguing that 24,000 Republicans who voted absentee in Georgia's GOP primaries did not vote in the general election. Raffensperger went so far as to say that Trump incidentally "suppressed" his own base with his complaints.

Yes he did, he disenfranchised a section of Republican voters who were too concerned about Covid to vote in person but also put off by Trump from mailing in their vote.

He spent more time planning what he would do in defeat than winning.
