Brian Kemp Puts Tom Price On Transition Team For 'Healthcare'
Rigging elections has consequences: Georgia Governor-elect Brian Kemp hires the guy who tried (and failed) to kill the ACA and got caught misusing taxpayer funds on private jets. Tom Price is on Brian Kemp's transition team to advise on healthcare.
By Frances Langum


Grifters gotta grift. Tom Price donated the maximum from his leftover campaign funds to the Kemp for Governor campaign, and now he gets a spot on the transition team to "help" with healthcare policy.

This is the guy who was fired by Trump because word of his love for private jet travel leaked out.

Kemp announced his transition team in a tweet, saying "My Administration will be known as incredibly competent, obviously diverse, and clearly committed to doing the right thing – even when no one is looking. We will transition effectively, govern honestly, and always put hardworking Georgians first."

Then he put Tom Price on the transition committee.

On the positive side, Lucy McBath is the new congressperson from Tom Price's old district.

Except for not expanding Medicaid, Nathan Deal (the previous GOPer governor) was relatively decent. KKKemp comes across as a tobacco-chewing rube and is clearly a racist for spreading hatred just like trump.
