Trump's path to 270 electoral votes is blocked by Georgia, according to Kemp.
Governor Kemp dismisses Trump's recent criticism at an Atlanta rally as an old issue.
Republican Governor Brian Kemp asserts that the path to the presidency will be through Georgia.
In an exclusive interview with Planet Chronicle Digital, Governor Kemp of the southeastern battleground state stated that there is no way for former President Trump or any Republican to win the election without Georgia.
Kemp stated that Georgia should be won by the Democrats if they have all the necessary mechanics. He is working hard to help provide those mechanics and turn out the Republican vote.
Kemp believes that four more years of either Biden and Harris or Harris and Walz would be worse than what they were.
A few days after Trump praised Kemp on social media for his help and support in Georgia, the governor was interviewed.
The Republican presidential nominee stated, "I am excited to collaborate with you, your team, and my friends in Georgia to contribute to the goal of making America great again."
Georgia's governor received a significant shift in tone from Trump's comments.
Trump criticized Kemp for not successfully challenging the election results in Georgia, despite losing the 2020 presidential election by a narrow margin.
In 2022, Trump softened his criticism after Kemp defeated Trump-supported former Senator David Perdue in the Georgia GOP gubernatorial primary.
In a 10-minute rant at an Atlanta rally, Trump accused Kemp of failing to overturn the 2020 vote count and of allowing a county prosecutor to indict him on election fraud charges.
""Little Brian Kemp is a bad, disloyal, and average governor," Trump accused."
Kemp stated on Planet Chronicle that he was uncertain about the events leading up to the rally, as he had heard various accounts and explanations from different sources.
He stated that the distraction was minor and had already passed.
Kemp stated that Republicans must remain focused on the future and communicate to voters the reasons for supporting them, as well as the actions they will take to improve current conditions. He also mentioned several issues that distinguish Kamala Harris's record from their own.
He emphasized that we should concentrate on the present and not get distracted by an old issue from a few weeks ago.
Kemp stated that he has been consistent in supporting the ticket, whoever the nominee was, in Georgia, and that he is still doing so. He added that he was asked about Trump's reversal last Thursday and advised asking Trump those questions.
After Kemp's appearance on Planet Chronicle, Trump made a statement calling for his return to the White House.
On Tuesday, Kemp stated that he hadn't spoken to Trump since the previous week when asked about their recent connection.
He stated that he has spoken with many individuals and believes everyone comprehends his position and the ticket's objectives in Georgia. He has been backing the candidate and the entire ticket and will continue to do so until November.
In order to win Georgia back, Trump will require Kemp's well-organized and financially backed political apparatus to mobilize Republican voters.
Kemp stated that he is diligently working to increase the Republican vote and secure victory in the state in November.
The governor stated that the outcome of the situation will depend on how things unfold and which states are involved, as well as who goes where and when.
He mentioned that he had other tasks in his duties with the Republican Governors Association, such as traveling around the country to raise money for North Carolina and New Hampshire, as well as assisting with legislative races in his state.
Kemp admitted that he sought legal advice from the state attorney general regarding the removal of three conservative members from the five-person election board who supported and passed a contentious set of new rules that require additional certification requirements for county election boards.
Kemp stated on Planet Chronicle that he had requested an opinion from the attorney general on whether the matter at hand would constitute an official complaint. He is awaiting a response and, therefore, cannot provide a detailed comment.
In Fulton County, Georgia, Trump commended three individuals for advocating for new election rules and referred to them as "tenacious fighters for fairness, transparency, and triumph."
The new rules are being viewed as an attempt to undermine democracy by the Georgia Democrats, who have contested them, asserting that they could hinder the certification of elections and cause significant conflicts.
