Ex-GOP Official Takes Down Trump's Candidacy With 'Dangerous' Description

Former Georgia Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan (R) broke down why he isn’t cool with a “flawed candidate who tried to usurp democracy” in former President Donald Trump on Thursday.

“He was a fake Republican for the first four years and he’d be a dangerous fake Republican the next four years,” Duncan said.

The CNN political commentator, who said there’s not a single policy that would cause him to “light this country on fire,” responded to GOP strategist Joe Pinion pointing to a checklist of what he believes is “important for America to survive” which included border security and the economy.

“I listened to the death threats come into my family, I watched guards outside my house, outside my office all because I was a Republican and I wouldn’t lie like Donald Trump did about the election being rigged,” said Duncan as he recalled the aftermath of Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 election results.

Duncan — who has endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris after President Joe Biden dropped out of the race — credited Pinion for raising “absolute issues” on the CNN panel regarding the border, inflation and foreign policy.

He said he wishes they could talk on those “important” topics but pointed to Trump trying to “fake his way back into the front door.”

Pinion told Duncan that what happened to his family shouldn’t happen to anyone in the U.S. before the former GOP official interjected.

“And it could be solved in one second if Donald Trump picked up a microphone, instead of calling names, if he sent out a press release and said, ‘Stop, don’t do it on my behalf or under my name,’” Duncan said.

“He’s had four years to do it and he hasn’t done it once.”
