In some ways, being charged in Georgia is worse than federal charges for both Giuliani and Trump. A president can pardon you of federal charges. They can’t pardon state charges. You need a governor to do that. Brian Kemp doesn’t sound like he would play ball.
Also as someone who lived in Georgia the first 35 years of my life, those good old boys that run things in Ga don’t like being challenged or their grift exposed. Trump tried to fuck that up and undermine it, if Kemp gets the chance to fuck Trump he will, I fucking hate Kemp and voted against him twice but I do know my racist Georgia politicians

GA doesn’t have a normal gubernatorial pardon. There is a review board which is an additional level of approval, too.
I’m pretty sure that when asked to consider a pardon for Rudy Giuliani, the board’s response would basically be “haha no.”
It’s a good thing they are all pro states rights
Damn governors can pardon criminals. Just when I thought us presidents being able to do that was bad enough.
Kemp isn’t exactly a good guy. You don’t think he’d do it to appease his base?
There is no love lost between Kemp and Trump.
