Trump Visits Cobb County Amid Protests | Savannah News

President Trump is set to hit Cobb County, Georgia, this week to unveil his “Trump Accounts” initiative — a program promising $1,000 to kids born between 2025 and 2028 — with a stop at Wheeler High School in Marietta. While school officials see it as a chance to spotlight student achievement, the visit has sparked backlash. Local Democrats and community groups protest the use of schools for political theater, especially given Cobb’s recent Democratic voting history. Critics question the appropriateness of leveraging school resources and communications for campaign purposes, while supporters see it as a proud moment. A “No Kings” protest is planned, and Republican candidates Rick Jackson and Mike Collins are expected to join. The event’s polarizing nature underscores the deepening political divide in a county that’s historically leaned Democratic — even as school leaders prepare to welcome the president with open arms.
