GA Gov. Kemp Greeted With Boos at GOP Convention

🏞️Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp heard the howls of outrage Saturday from fellow Republicans who wanted him to have been more active in pushing back against the results of the 🗳️2020 Election.

In the immediate aftermath of the election, then-outgoing President Donald Trump branded Kemp, along with Gov. Doug Ducey of Arizona as “RINO Republicans,” or “Republican in Name Only,” or RINO, for certifying the results that showed President Joe Biden narrowly defeating Trump.

“Two RINO Republicans who fought against me and the Republican Party harder than any Democrat,” Trump wrote in a Twitter post, according to Forbes.  “Never forget, vote them out of office!”

Kemp was continually booed Saturday when he tried to address the state’s Republican convention.

“The jeering was so loud it was difficult to make out much of what Kemp said during his remarks, at least from the back of the Jekyll Island Convention Center,” The Atlanta Journal-Constitution wrote in its reporting on the incident.

“Whenever the governor’s supporters cheered, opponents booed. Whenever Kemp’s opponents booed, supporters would try to drown them out with cheers,” it reported.

Kemp tried to note his legislative victories.

“We passed heartbeat legislation,” Kemp said of a law that would ban abortion if a baby’s heartbeat could be detected.
