“It sounded too good. I had to let ’em go forward,” Trump says. “I don’t think we could have stopped them anyways. Do you?”
5:05 PM: Crowd chants “Six More Years! Six More Years!”
Trump says this is one of the greatest movements in history but his supporters have to vote to keep the momentum going even though he is “ahead of schedule.”

4:55 PM: Trump says Democrats want to destroy our nation.
“Without borders, we don’t have a nation,” Trump says. He says America has worked hard to defend other countries’ borders “but we don’t protect our own borders. But we’re protecting it now.”
Trump says Democrats want “chaos” at the border because they think it is benefiting them politically. But he thinks it’s “backfiring.”

Trump says he’s for Kemp because Georgia’s governorship means so much to the country.
4:41 PM: Trump on Oprah, who campaigned for Abrams: “Oprah was a friend of mine until I ran for office,” Trump says. “Once i ran for office, we diverged.” Trump not that harsh on Oprah.

Trump says she’ll raise income taxes, property taxes right through the roof, and supports a socialist takeover of health care,
Trump says Abrams wants sanctuary cities, voted to allow illegal aliens to receive public benefits and hold public office.
“Stacey Abrams wants illegal aliens to vote,” Trump says. “They like them coming in because we’re winning.”
Trump says “we can’t let that happen” because Democrats figure all illegal aliens will vote for them.
Trump says Abrams said illegal aliens should be part of her “blue wave” and says he doesn’t think it’s happening.
Trump also blasts Obama for lying about “if you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor.”
4:35 PM: Trump says you don’t hear much about the “horrendous blue wave” much anymore.

Dooley says he talked to Herschel Walker and he supports Brian and “you’ll be hearing from him in the next couple days…”
He jokes that it was easy to coach Walker — just take the snap and hand it off to him — 10 yards, 10 yards, 20 yards, 30 yards.
Trump says Georgia has a great one-loss team this year but they could use Walker.
4:25 PM: “They don’t do a damn thing,” Trump says of Central American countries like Honduras, El Salvador, and Nicaragua.

He says he is sending a message to the caravans and the human traffickers. “Turn back now,” Trump says. He says they are not going to enter the United States unless they come in the proper way.
Trump says to vote Democrat if you want more crime and caravans. He says vote for Republicans if you want safer communities.
4:23 PM: Trump says the “radical resistance” will try to reverse everything the MAGA movement has gained if they take power. He says they’ll raise taxes, impose socialism, and erase borders.
“How about that caravan?” Trump asks as the crowd chants “Build that wall” after he asks if they want to let them pour across the border. Trump tells the crowd he sent the military to the border.
“We’re not playing games,” Trump says. “If you look at what’s marching up… That’s an invasion…”
Trump says the “violent” caravan overran Mexican police. “These are rough, rough people in many cases,” Trump says. “We have emboldened these people.”
4:20 PM: Trump back on Kavanaugh… “This was number four… how about the other ones?”… Trump says the Democrats were “so bad,” “so disrespectful,” and “horrible.” He is now mocking Feinstein again about claiming not to have leaked Christine Blasey Ford’s letter. “She leaked, Trump says after saying it was the worst body language he has ever seen. “In other words, she leaked.”
Trump says to go to the polls on Tuesday and remember how Democrats treated Kavanaugh.
“Republicans produce jobs,” Trump says. “Democrats create mobs.”
Trump says Antifa takes their helmets off and you “see their little arms.” He’s mocking Antifa. And says these are bad people causing problem “and the press doesn’t want to talk about them.”
Trump talks about bikers, military, ICE, and the Border Patrol for Trump.
4:19 PM: Trump says ten years ago he was living a “nice simple life” (The Simple Life was the title of Paris Hilton’s reality show) and “look what happened…”

“You knew that before,” Trump says.
4:15 PM: Trump says jobless claims in Georgia lowest in 45 years in more Georgians employed than ever.
“She’ll end it quickly. She’ll double up your taxes. A lot of bad things will happen,” Trump says of Abrams. He says to elect her if he wants to see the great economy end quickly.
Trump says Kemp is an “incredible manager” and bring Georgia’s economy to new heights.
4:12 PM: Trump says “America now has the best economy in the history of our country” but warns “it can be destroyed very quickly” by Democrats who will take a “wrecking ball” to everything. He touts last month’s great jobs report and says the numbers were great despite the hurricane that hit the southeastern United States.
4:06 PM: “There is electricity in the air that I have not seen [since 2016],” Trump tells the crowd. He says crowds like this have not existed in the history of the midterm elections.
“We never left center stage,” Trump says of the 2016 GOP presidential debates. He then says he went against “Crooked Hillary” and was very successful as the crowd chants “Lock Her Up.” Really has a Monday Night Raw + SEC football game feel. Trump says his supporters who have “built this country” are “great people.”
Trump says the press treat him unfairly by not showing his crowd size. He says the cameras “turned like pretzels” as soon as there were protesters and “trouble” at his rallies.
4:05 PM: Trump says this is like being at a Georgia football game. Trump says he thinks Kemp is going to do “very well” based on crowd size. Trump says he is thrilled to be back in a state he won “easily” in 2016.
4:02 PM: Trump gets on stage before a raucous Georgia crowd. Electric.
