Travis Tritt is being ridiculed on social media over a comment about Georgia Gov. .
In a post to , the social network created by the Trump Media and Technology Group, the country singer said a confidential source in Georgia told him that Kemp was in more than 7 million dollars of debt in 2018, when he was elected as the state’s 83rd governor.
However, Tritt added that the 59-year-old Republican politician “cut a deal with the state of Georgia.” This purported deal involved selecting Dominion Voting Systems—a producer and distributor of electronic voting technology—as the provider of the new statewide voting system. “My sources tell me that Kemp has never been in debt since that deal was done,” the 60-year-old musician wrote. “Connect the dots.”
