Trump Has Launched A Republican Civil War In Georgia

Donald Trump has spent months attacking Republican Georgia governor Brian Kemp, and now his supporters are firing back against the twice-impeached, one-term former President. They aren't happy that his lack of support could end up costing Republicans control of the state next year, but this is what happens when you embrace a narcissistic demagogue to be the leader of your political party. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains what's happening and why Democrats need to let the Republican Party eat itself alive.

Donald Trump has been at war with the Republicans in the state of Georgia. The Republicans are control of the state of Georgia. Uh, really since the beginning of this year and even into late 2020, and recently, as we discussed, he gave a little speech in Georgia where he jokingly endorsed Stacy Abrams, Democrat over Republican incumbent, governor Brian Kemp. Well, after those comments, Republicans in Georgia, those who still support Brian Kemp decided they'd had enough and they're starting to speak out and they're getting angry and they're attacking Donald Trump and his ridiculous cult like followers for essentially helping the Democrats and trying to tank the Republican party. Here's how one of them put it. This is from buzz Brockway, a former I'm sorry, buzz Brockway. Is that your real name buzz at just sounds so, I don't know. You could be a professional wrestler with that name and not even have to take on a fake persona. It's buzz Brockway, sorry. Buzz Brockway, former Republican state representative who lost a primary bid for secretary of state in 2018, says it's a suicidal cult. That's what's happening. It's not hurting the Democrats. Um, then you have another one. Uh, Marci McCarthy who chairs the GOP in Atlanta says when president Trump says something, tongue in cheek about Brian Kemp. I don't think anybody really cares. I think more people are concerned about their every day living.

And then you have another one. Uh, this is from James Hall state Republican party committee member. Right now we are joined at the hip to Donald Trump who doesn't share the same interests. He wants to torpedo Brian Kemp. So you've got buzzed Brockway. And, uh, it was at Jim hall over here saying Trump is screwing us over, but then you have Marcy McCarthy who says, oh, nobody really cares. People are going about their lives. Everything's great. And wonderful and fun. Don't worry about anything. It really is. I guess you would call it a mild civil war among Republicans in the state of Georgia, because you do have the two factions emerging. Those who say we got to get away from Trump. He asked to shut up. He's going to hurt us. And those like Marcy McCarthy who say, oh, pish, don't worry about it. People are living their lives. No, they're really not Marcy. I don't know if you've been paying attention, but when Donald Trump tells Republicans to think or feel something, they typically go along and think and feel that. And the problem is you, Republicans don't really have anybody that's going to come up and primary Brian camp in any kind of meaningful way, which means camp is going to be your Republican nominee for 2022. And he's probably going to get his butt kicked at this point because Donald Trump has convinced his supporters within the state of Georgia. That

Kemp is evil because he wouldn't overturn the state's elections in Georgia. And let's also not forget. We got another big thing brewing in the state of Georgia. And that is the investigation into Donald Trump for possible election interference. There's all kinds of things happening in the state of Georgia right now. Honestly, it's quite fascinating.
