ATLANTA — Gov. Brian Kemp and other Georgia politicians are reacting after a shocking deadly shooting at former President Donald Trump's campaign rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday.

The shooting at the rally is being investigated as an attempted assassination of the former president and presumptive Republican nominee, law enforcement officials say. 

In a statement from Trump himself, the former president described the moment he said he heard a bullet whizzing by before it "ripped through" his ear. Photos from the rally showed the president's ear bloodied. The president was rushed away by secret service and his campaign quickly said that he was “fine.”
