Duncan\u200d framed this\u200c potential vote \u2063as an act of\u200d patriotism, arguing it could help reclaim the nation&#8217;s future. The\u2063 article\u200c criticizes Duncan and his stance, framing him as a &#8220;Never Trumper&#8221; and accusing him\u2062 of misrepresenting \u200dHarris as a capable\u2063 leader despite her \u2062perceived \u200bpolitical shortcomings.\u200d The piece further\u200b highlights Harris&#8217;s\u200b controversial record, \u2064particularly regarding immigration and\u200d her active political campaigns that the author argues undermine foundational liberties, \u200cincluding issues surrounding free speech. The\u200c overall tone \u2064of the piece is critical\u2063 of both Harris \u2062and Duncan, portraying them as part\u200c of a \u2064misguided \u2062effort\u2063 to shape the political landscape in favor of perceived ineffectual leadership.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pingeorgia.org\/team\/geoff-duncan\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Former Georgia Lt.

He emphasized that casting a vote for Harris in 2024 does not equate to being a Democrat. Duncan, who has been labeled a &#8220;Never Trumper,&#8221; argued that supporting the vice president is an act of patriotism and part of fulfilling one&#8217;s duty as an American to shape the country&#8217;s future.<\/p>\n<p>Duncan&#8217;s comments reflect a broader trend among certain factions within the Republican Party, including groups like the Lincoln Project and No Labels, who are attempting to promote Harris despite her unpopularity and questionable political record. They seem determined to present her as a capable leader rather than someone known for incoherent statements.<\/p>\n<p>As &#8220;Border Czar,&#8221; Harris has faced criticism for her handling of border security amid rising illegal immigration rates. Critics point out tragic incidents linked to this issue, such as violent crimes committed by undocumented immigrants. Additionally, she has previously supported policies that decriminalize illegal immigration and reduce local law enforcement&#8217;s role in federal immigration enforcement.<\/p>\n<p>Duncan and others appear willing to overlook Harris\u2019s controversial stances on issues like gun control and free speech in their opposition to Donald Trump. They argue that Trump&#8217;s behavior disqualifies him from holding office again, even if it means endorsing candidates with far-left agendas.<\/p>\n<p>In summary, Duncan\u2019s remarks highlight a faction within the Republican Party advocating for support of Kamala Harris while downplaying her record and aligning with their disdain for Trump<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":656,"featured_media":2325540,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-16-at-12.33.33-AM.png","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[546],"tags":[9373,32490,3911,4351],"class_list":["post-2325539","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-federalist","tag-cnn","tag-media-bias","tag-republican","tag-voting"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Screenshot-2024-08-16-at-12.33.33-AM.png","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2325539","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/656"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2325539"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2325539\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2325540"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2325539"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2325539"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2325539"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
