Trump’s Cobb County policy event turns into a Georgia campaign rally

President Donald Trump came to Cobb County to promote a new savings program for children, but his appearance at Wheeler High School quickly took on the feel of a campaign rally. On today’s episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Politically Georgia podcast, Greg Bluestein and Patricia Murphy break down Trump’s attacks on U.S. Sen. Jon Ossoff, his enthusiastic support for Republican Senate nominee Mike Collins and the political significance of holding the event in a county that has shifted sharply toward Democrats. They also examine Republican gubernatorial nominee Rick Jackson’s emotional speech and his proposal to provide an additional $1,000 for Georgia children enrolled in the new federal savings accounts. Plus, Greg and Patricia discuss how Democrats are working to tie Georgia’s Republican ticket to Trump and turn the November election into a referendum on his presidency.
