Former President Donald Trump launched a new round of scathing attacks at Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp on Saturday. But did the rally before a smaller than usual crowd help David Perdue?

In a special Tuesday edition of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Politically Georgia podcast, Greg Bluestein and Patricia Murphy take a deep dive into what was said in Commerce. Our team digs into why Georgia is the biggest test of Trump’s influence, how Perdue is taking his complaints about the 2020 election one step further, and why Herschel Walker is taking a different approach.

Plus we take the temperature of Trump supporters to see how much impact his endorsements will have.
