Ex-GOP Official Torches 'Criminal Defendant' Trump, Endorses Joe Biden Instead
HuffPost
Former Georgia Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan says Trump has no "moral compass."
Former Georgia Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan, a Republican, is bucking his party and endorsing President Joe Biden over Donald Trump in this year’s election.
“This November, I am voting for a decent person I disagree with on policy over a criminal defendant without a moral compass,” he wrote in an editorial in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
Duncan wrote that the GOP can’t rebuild until it rebukes Trump, who he said “has disqualified himself through his conduct and his character.” He pointed out that the former president is currently on trial over a scheme involving hush money payments to porn star Stormy Daniels.
“Most important, Trump fanned the flames of unfounded conspiracy theories that led to the horrific events of Jan. 6, 2021,” Duncan wrote. “He refuses to admit he lost the last election and has hinted he might do so again after the next one.”
He also had a reminder for voters concerned about issues such as higher taxes and campus unrest over Gaza.
