Watch Live: Trump and Kemp address Helene aftermath in Evans, Georgia

Former President Donald Trump and Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp will deliver remarks about the effects of Helene in Evans, Georgia.

This is the first time that Trump and Kemp are appearing together in years.

Evans is a suburb located around 15 miles northwest of Augusta, Georgia, one of the cities hardest hit by Helene. In Columbia County, where Evans is located, around 23,000 people are still without power.



This visit comes after Vice President Kamala Harris visited Augusta on Wednesday and President Joe Biden visited Ray City, Georgia, on Thursday. Trump was also in Georgia earlier this week, on Monday, to survey the damage in Valdosta, Georgia.
