ATLANTA (AP) Supporters of Republican Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp are fighting back against Donald Trump and their own party leaders, angered by a rally last month in which the former president again attacked the state's chief executive.
Kemp's proponents warn that a total embrace of Trump, his false claims about election fraud and his vendetta against the governor for not trying to overturn Trump's loss in Georgia last year could ruin Republican chances in 2022 in the narrowly divided state.
Right now we are joined at the hip to Donald Trump, who doesnt share the same interests," said James Hall, a state Republican Party committee member from Savannah. "He wants to torpedo Brian Kemp.
Georgia is one of several states seeing Trump-driven infighting. The former president also continues to roil the partys internal politics in Arizona, where he has targeted Republican Gov. Doug Ducey, and Wyoming, where he is driving an effort to oust Liz Cheney, the states lone U.S. House member. Trump is endorsing primary candidates across the nation, continuing a drive to remake the Republican Party in his image.
