Governors are leading our states through unbelievably challenging times. We have an incredible group of governors from 27 states across the country. I’ve been so grateful to learn from them, and I’m honored to have their support. 4/4

President Trump can’t be happy with this selection. Like, at all:
Between Governor @DougDucey of Arizona and Governor @BrianKempGA of Georgia, the Democrat Party could not be happier. They fight harder against us than do the Radical Left Dems. If they were with us, we would have already won both Arizona and Georgia…

And it does seem like Republican governors are sending him a message, no?
Arizona Gov. @dougducey, under relentless attack from Trump for refusing to usurp the will of AZ voters, will be the next chair of the Republican Governors Association https://t.co/ASEzvty1mP
