It’s not Donald Trump. It’s not even Greg Abbott or Ron DeSantis, although they would surely be contenders in better days. It’s–wait for it–Brian Kemp, the estimable governor of Georgia, by a landslide.
Why? Because his political identity, for better or worse (well, just worse) is tied in with Trump’s, and he can’t even get that right. The first episode, when he reopened too fast even for the man on golf cart, could be excused as an understandably overzealous attempt to implement his master’s get back to work rhetoric. But Kemp’s new war on masks comes at a time when even Trump has acknowledged that masks can help revive the economy and thereby save his bacon. He has even worn one on camera himself!
Bet Stacey Abrams can’t wait for the rematch.
