"Governor" kemp (GA) just overruled the local mask mandates [View all]

My county and several others just implemented mandatory mask requirements, and now kkkemp is stepping in to stop it.

I really don't get it. Why is he doing this? It's completely self defeating if he really wants to get Georgia's economy back on track.

Is he experiencing psychosis due to an active but undiagnosed covid-19 infection?

Or is it that he is actively trying to kill the people who won't vote for him?
