Trump held a rally in Georgia on Saturday to hype up the campaign of David Perdue, the former senator who is running against Gov. Brian Kemp in Georgia’s GOP primary. Perdue’s campaign has thus far been a dud, which is unsurprising given that his entire campaign is centered on his obedience to Trump. Perdue is an empty suit that has nothing to offer outside of being Trump’s chosen candidate. So far, voters aren’t impressed.
