May 24, 2022: Trump’s day of reckoning in Georgia
Manage episode 329540647 series 2505327
Another Tuesday, another massive set of primaries that will test Trump’s grip on the GOP.
Today’s most-watched state: Georgia. For the former president, the stakes could not be higher.
In the gubernatorial primary, Gov. Brian Kemp faces former Sen. David Perdue. Trump — who partly blames Kemp for his loss of the state in 2020 — has bet bigly on Perdue. He recruited him to run and sunk $2.5 million of his own campaign cash into Perdue’s effort. And yet, according to the RealClearPolitics polling average, Kemp leads Perdue by an average of 22 points.
“The Republican base is poised to take a turn delivering Trump a stinging rebuke in a state where, during his presidency, the GOP lost two Senate seats, two House seats and the state’s Electoral College votes for the first time since the mid-1990s,” Steve Shepard writes in his curtain-raiser this morning.
