Georgia GOP’s future, Democratic shakeups and Rep. Rich McCormick’s viral town hall

As President Donald Trump marks his first month back in the Oval Office, Georgia Republicans are solidifying their strategy for the future. On today’s episode of Politically Georgia, hosts Greg Bluestein and Tia Mitchell sit down with Georgia GOP Chairman Josh McKoon to discuss Trump’s return, the state party’s vision and McKoon’s own plans for reelection.

 

Meanwhile, Georgia Democrats are dealing with mounting calls for change after suffering significant losses in November. The debate has reached the top of the party, with some urging Chairwoman Nikema Williams to step down. Georgia Democratic Party Vice Chair Matt Wilson joins the show to weigh in on whether a leadership shakeup is necessary.

 

Plus, Congressman Rich McCormick addresses the backlash from his recent town hall meeting that went viral. The Suwanee Republican explains in his own words what happened, why the event took a heated turn, and how he’s responding to his constituents.
