The person added that the meeting was cold and unproductive. A spokesperson for Jackson\u2019s campaign confirmed the meeting took place and said Jackson would welcome Jones\u2019 support in the election.<\/p><p>Jones\u2019 camp, the people familiar said, has their own demand for any potential endorsement of Jackson: a lawsuit settlement valued around $25 million. The pair traded lawsuits during the primary. Jones\u2019 family\u2019s gas company sued Jackson for defamation in June. The suit accused Jackson of <span><u>using the company\u2019s branding to make false claims<\/u><\/span> about Jones. It sought $100 million in damages.<\/p><p>Jackson has <span><u>sued Jones twice<\/u><\/span>. The first was a federal lawsuit to restrict spending from Jones\u2019 leadership committee. The second was a defamation lawsuit after Jones\u2019 campaign accused Jackson\u2019s business of working with Planned Parenthood.<\/p><p>Jones <span><u>loaned his campaign<\/u><\/span> $25 million.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe president did ask Lt. Governor Jones and Rick Jackson to meet, but nothing was offered in exchange,\u201d a spokesperson for Jones said in a statement to NOTUS. The spokesperson did not respond to a follow-up question clarifying whether Trump offered Jones the ambassadorship.<\/p><p>The White House didn\u2019t immediately respond to a request for comment.<\/p><p>Trump endorsed Jackson after he won the runoff and <span><u>praised him<\/u><\/span> at an event in Georgia last month. Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr, who also ran for governor, endorsed Jackson before the runoff. But Jones has refused to endorse until his legal disputes with Jackson are resolved.<\/p><p>Also in the meeting with Jones and Jackson was Jones\u2019 father, Bill Jones. A successful Georgia businessman, the elder Jones financially backed his son\u2019s campaign. At least part of the endorsement resistance comes from him, according to the people familiar, who described a dynamic in which Jones\u2019 father holds significant sway.<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/modernhomejournals.com\/?p=2991\">Trump\u2019s Lawyers: Kennedy Center Could Be Demolished if Renovation Is Halted<\/a><\/p><p>Trump has appointed multiple failed Republican candidates to positions within his administration during his second term, with an emphasis on ambassador roles. Two were candidates in Georgia: David Perdue, <span><u>the ambassador to China<\/u><\/span>, and Herschel Walker, <span><u>ambassador to the Bahamas<\/u><\/span>.<\/p><p>Georgia has consistently caused headaches for Trump. In 2018, Democrats flipped a Republican congressional seat outside of Atlanta and almost won the governor\u2019s mansion. During the 2020 cycle, Republicans lost both Senate seats, and Joe Biden defeated Trump by the slimmest of margins to turn the state blue for the <span><u>first time since Bill Clinton<\/u><\/span> in 1992.<\/p>\n<p>Although it returned to red in 2024, some Georgia Republicans are concerned that affordability issues, the Iran war and Trump\u2019s broader unpopularity could allow Democrats to gain ground this year. Republican Rep. Mike Collins\u2019 campaign for Senate has struggled to <span><u>gain traction<\/u><\/span> against Sen. Jon Ossoff, Democratic candidates are campaigning heavily in deep-red areas and <span><u>multiple<\/u><\/span> <span><u>polls<\/u><\/span> have found Bottoms running just ahead of Jackson.<\/p><p>Two of the people familiar said Jackson needs Jones\u2019 endorsement if he wants to beat Bottoms.<\/p><p>\u201cI don\u2019t believe he can win without Jones\u2019 endorsement,\u201d said one of the people. \u201cI don\u2019t know if he can win with it, to be honest. But he definitely can\u2019t win without it.\u201d<\/p><p>Jackson\u2019s spokesperson said that the Republican Party is \u201crallying around Rick Jackson to support him in our upcoming election against Keisha Lance Bottoms.\u201d<\/p><p>Some are more bullish on Jackson\u2019s chances and downplayed the significance of getting Jones\u2019 public support. Eamon Keegan, a Republican pollster in Georgia, said that it wasn\u2019t uncommon for Democratic candidates in the state to have an edge in summer polling, only to underperform in November.<\/p><p>\u201cPeople have moved on from the primary runoff now,\u201d Keegan told NOTUS, though he added that it wouldn\u2019t hurt for Jones to endorse Jackson. Keegan said he expects \u201cany Burt Jones supporter will be on Team Jackson on or before November 3rd.\u201d<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/modernhomejournals.com\/?p=2989\">Minnesota Says an ICE Agent Who Shot a Man Could Go to Mexico<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Discussions over the lieutenant governor\u2019s endorsement, which included an offered ambassadorship, appear stalled by a spate of unresolved legal squabbles.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2994,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2997","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-2026-election"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Trump Wants Unity in Georgia.
