Republican presidential nominee pulled no punches against Georgia GOP Gov. Brian Kemp – "most disloyal guy I have ever seen" – and Attorney General Brad Raffensperger on Saturday night at his Atlanta rally.
"If we lose Georgia, we lose the whole thing, and our country goes to hell," Trump told his crowd in a speech that aired live and in its entirety on Newsmax and the free Newsmax2 streaming platform. "Because we can't let [Kamala Harris] be president of the United States, because she's grossly incompetent.
"We can't let that happen."
Along with hitting Kemp for being the "most disloyal" Republican governor in a state that is a pivotal presidential election battleground once again, Trump urged Georgia to bring an honest election for the American people this November.
"Raffensperger better make sure that the vote is honest, and they don't want the vote to be honest," Trump said, retelling his stories about the 2020 presidential election that ultimately became a Democrat-led investigation that led to multiple indictments in Fulton County and Washington, D.C. "In my opinion, they want us to lose.
"That's actually my opinion, and we can't let that happen."
Kemp engaged in a tit-for-tat with Trump on Saturday on social media, responding to a Trump Truth Social post as Trump was speaking at the rally Saturday night.
"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," Kemp wrote.
"You should do the same, Mr. President, and leave my family out of it."
Trump was even more pointed at
During the rally, Trump said, "I'm used to fake crap that goes on with these politicians," pointing to Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis' investigation into the 2020 election challenge. "But many, many people, their lives have been destroyed because of Fani.
"And this governor — I don't know, I assume — he could straighten it out, because his state has become a laughingstock over it.
"And you know what? I love this state."
Kemp "could have ended this travesty" in the 2020 election investigation "with a phone call, because I did nothing wrong and neither did all of those good people that are being persecuted," Trump continued.
Trump also denounced failed Georgia Democrat gubernatorial candidate turned Democrat election operative Stacey Abrams.
"Stacey Abrams can say it; it's fine," Trump said. "But if we say we won the election — and we did — that's not fine. We can't do it."
Hillary Clinton still denies the 2016 election as free, fair, and final.
"Hillary still is complaining about it and nothing happens to her," Trump lamented. "We have two sides of justice, and we can't do it anymore.
"We have to get back to making America great again. We don't have time for this nonsense."
