During a recent Oval Office press conference alongside Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche and Director of the FBI Kash Patel, President Trump turned attention back to the unresolved questions surrounding the 2020 Georgia election. When asked about the emerging field of Republican challengers in the state’s upcoming Senate race, Trump expressed his views on the candidates and the incumbent Democrat, Jon Ossoff.
Trump described the GOP contenders as “a lot of good people in that field… I know all of them.” He noted that Georgia Governor Brian Kemp has thrown his support behind Derek Dooley, a former college football coach, but Trump himself has not yet endorsed anyone. Shifting focus to Ossoff, Trump called him “a horrible Senator” who “allows all the crime…his whole philosophy is a disaster.”
