Political Rewind: When Helping The Poor Becomes A Political Taboo

Caption

Georgia Lt. Gov. Casey Cagle, GOP candidate for governor, appears on Political Rewind on January 11, 2018, at the Georgia State Capitol.

On this edition of Political Rewind, helping the poor becomes an issue in the GOP runoff between Brian Kemp and Casey Cagle. We’ll discuss what appears to be the final revelation in the Cagle secret tape episode. 

Then, what are the local issues that matter most in this year’s governor’s race? Sandy Springs Mayor Rusty Paul and Columbus Mayor Teresa Tomlinson are here to share their answers to that question. Plus, Senator David Perdue stands strong with President Trump even as a whirlwind of controversy continues to roil the president in the aftermath of his meeting with Vladamir Putin, but former Georgia Senator Sam Nunn says he’s troubled by Trump’s willingness to accommodate Putin.
