Brian Kemp declares October 1 ‘Jimmy Carter Day’

Georgia’s Republican Governor Brian Kemp, with whom Trump has feuded over the state’s conduct in the 2020 election, has declared October 1 as “Jimmy Carter Day.”

In a statement, Kemp, who endorsed Trump in the November election, said Carter “has remained a person of strong convictions and a committed advocate of community service.”

“Of his many accomplishments, he is perhaps best known as a loving husband, a caring humanitarian and an esteemed Sunday school teacher,” Kemp’s statement said.

Carter spent his birthday at his home in Plains, Georgia, where he has been in hospice care since February 2023.
