Donald Trump This Morning: Rick Jackson Won By Being "TRUMP"
Jackson Campaigned as "Trump's Favorite Governor," said He "Couldn't Name A Single White House Policy He Disagrees With"
Today, Donald Trump lavished praise on Rick Jackson's ultra-MAGA campaign for governor, writing on Truth Social that Jackson "campaigned on being 'TRUMP'" and that he "can't wait" for Rick Jackson's campaign to get started.
This comes as Rick Jackson has strongly indicated throughout his campaign that he will fight for Trump over what's best for Georgians.
"Rick Jackson has repeatedly said that he is running to be Trump's favorite governor - those are his words," said DGA spokesperson Kevin Donohoe. "Rick Jackson has said himself that he couldn't name a single Trump policy he disagrees with, while Trump's policies raise costs and take away health care for Georgians. Now, even Donald Trump admits that Rick Jackson is just like Trump, and Georgia will reject his extreme cost-raising agenda in November."
