ATLANTA (AP) — When President Donald Trump swoops into Atlanta for a VIP seat at college football's biggest game, he'll enjoy the Southern hospitality of a city he disparaged a year ago as "falling apart" and "crime infested."
The insults tweeted by Trump a week before his inauguration may seem like ancient history to most Americans who follow the president's voluminous stream of online invective. But Atlanta hasn't forgotten.
"It was very personal because we live here and we love it," said Stephanie Langer, a 40-year-old East Atlanta resident whose anger over the president's putdowns was rekindled by news of his pending visit.
