Georgia Republican Gov. Brian Kemp will not be at former President Donald Trump’s rally in the state today, according to a person familiar with his plans.
Some context: Kemp said in June that he did not vote for Trump in the primary, but he has maintained that he’ll “support the ticket” in November. Kemp clashed with the former president after he refused to call a special legislative session to help Trump as he sought overturn the 2020 presidential election results in Georgia.
Trump was so furious with Kemp, he pledged to end his political career and backed a primary challenger in the 2022 Republican gubernatorial primary. The move failed spectacularly and Kemp beat David Perdue by over 50 points.
