Donald Trump congratulates candidate Sen for his “great and solid construction”

President Donald Trump kicked off his rally in Dalton, Ga., on Friday by discussing the appearance of several male candidates, including the “tall and strong” Rep. Mike Collins (R-GA), who is running for Senate against the incumbent senator. John Ossoff (D-GA).

As expected, Trump wasn’t too enamored of Ossoff’s physique, which he mocked in Trumpian name-calling style.

“In eighteen days, the people of Georgia will defeat your weak, arrogant, radical left-wing senator, who is actually… I call him Pee Wee Herman! » Trump said.

“Someone said he was a handsome man. I don’t think he’s a handsome man,” Trump said with authority. “I actually think Mike Collins is a handsome man, and he’s every man. Every man. I’m not sure about Ossoff.”

“I think Rick Jackson is a handsome, distinguished man,” Trump added of the Republican gubernatorial nominee, before returning to Collins:

We’re going to beat, we’re going to beat – you’re going to have one of the, you’re going to have, in Mike Collins, you’re going to have one of the best senators – either way, he’s one of the most respected people in Washington. There is no one more respected than Mike. The work he did as a congressman. Members of Congress will tell you, they are all there. One of the most respected guys. And he’s Central Casting. Get up! Look at this. If I select a film for a senator, if I select a film for a senator, I like white hair, I like a tall, strong build. A big, strong guy. But that’s what I want. But he is a respected man.

Jackson still holds a narrow 49-47% lead over Stockings Keisha Lance (D) in an InsiderAdvantage poll, despite not showing up at the last gubernatorial debate.

Ossoff leads Collins by 8 to 10 percentage points, according to recent polls.
