Vance and Georgia Gov. Kemp Project Republican Unity at Evangelical Event After Trump Tensions

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

65% : Vance, for his part, praised Kemp as "incredible, patriotic and very effective," and added praise for Kemp's wife, Marty -- a far cry from Trump's using social media posts and an Atlanta rally in August to accuse the governor of "fighting Unity and the Republican Party" and criticizing Georgia's first lady for saying she planned to write in her husband's name on her presidential ballot.
29% : Trump has argued that conservatives should concentrate their energies on state governments and not make a national ban a central part of the presidential election.
28% : Trump does not explicitly support a national ban and saw to it that the 2024 Republican platform would not include such a proposal for the first time in decades.
24% : He's moved on," Reed said of Trump and his false claims that the 2020 election was rigged.
11% : In fact, Trump still repeats those claims regularly, though the former president over the past month has stopped including Kemp in his list of figures he holds responsible for his defeat.
1% : The Faith & Freedom Coalition, led by longtime evangelical political powerhouse Ralph Reed, brought Vance and Kemp to the same stage with a shared focus: advocating for Trump, criticizing Democratic nominee Kamala Harris and ignoring several years of tension stemming from Trump's attacks on Kemp for his refusal to help overturn Trump's 2020 defeat.
