A conversation about new attacks Donald Trump made on Gov. Brian Kemp (R-GA) came to a sudden halt on Sunday after CNN host Dana Bash reminded a GOP lawmaker that the former president tried to overturn the election results in Georgia in 2020 so he could remain in office.
During an appearance on CNN's "State of the Union," the frequently combative Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-OK) argued the former president had every right to lash out at Kemp at the rally in Atlanta Saturday night because the Georgia governor made it clear he won't vote for Trump in November.
That led the CNN host to remind him that the two Republicans have a history stemming back to the Georgia state certification of votes in the 2020 presidential election.
After Bash briefly mentioned the 2020 dispute, Mullin replied, "You're talking about something four years ago, let's talk about what's happening today in this election today. Governor Kemp came out, not today, but in this election cycle, Kemp came out and said that he wasn't voting for president Trump in the primary — that's a problem."
"Kemp is in office because president Trump endorsed him and Kemp and his wife know that," he continued. "And so the media wants to talk about that. They want to talk about anything but what this Harris/Biden administration —," Mullin complained.
"I would not be asking you about this had president Trump brought it up on the stump and then done it in social media," Bash interrupted as Mullin tried to talk over her.
"I really wanted to ask you about the Middle East, but before we go, I just do want to say that the reason why Governor Kemp didn't endorse Donald Trump in the primary is because Donald Trump tried to overturn what Kemp believes was a free and fair election in his home state," the CNN host lectured which led to the Oklahoma Republican to open his mouth with nothing coming out as she moved onto the next topic.
