Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp (R) is firing back at former President Donald Trump for lashing out at him over the weekend.
In a post on X, Kemp shared Trump’s attack and wrote, “My focus is on winning this November and saving our country from Kamala Harris and the Democrats – not engaging in petty personal insults, attacking fellow Republicans, or dwelling on the past.”
“You should do the same, Mr. President, and leave my family out of it,” he added.
The post came after Trump wrote on Truth Social, “Brad Raffensperger has to do his job, and make sure this Election is not stolen. Brian Kemp should focus his efforts on fighting Crime, not fighting Unity and the Republican Party!”
“His Crime Rate in Georgia is terrible, his Crime Rate in Atlanta is the worst, and his Economy is average. He should be seeking UNITY, not Retribution, especially against the man that got him the Nomination through Endorsement and, without whom, he could never have beaten Stacey Abrams,” he continued. “He and his wife didn’t think he could win. I said, ‘I’m telling you you’re going to win.’ Then he won, he was happy, and his wife said, ‘Thank you Sir, we’ll never be able to make it up to you!’
Finally, Trump wrote, “Now she says she won’t Endorse me, and is going to “write in Brian Kemp’s name.” Well, I don’t want her Endorsement, and I don’t want his. They’re the ones who got Fani Willis and her boyfriend all ‘jazzed up’ and ready to go.”
“He could have ended that travesty with a phone call, but he doesn’t want to end it because he’s a bad guy….” he added.
The post appeared to claim Kemp inspired Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis to prosecute Trump. However, it was unclear where that claim came from.
