Geoff Duncan, the former Georgia Republican lieutenant governor, on Friday reacted to the state party chair’s effort to bar him from running as a Republican over Duncan’s endorsement of Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential race, telling CNN he has “no desire to be a part of that party.”
Georgia GOP Chairman Josh McKoon on Friday “sent Duncan an open letter demanding that he ‘cease referring to [himself] as a Republican,’” The Atlantic-Journal Constitution reports.
In the letter, McKoon took a shot at Duncan’s “life otherwise devoid of accomplishment (e.g. dropping out of college, failing as a minor league baseball player, starting a series of sketchy businesses)” and claimed the former lieutenant governor is “prostituting [himself] to CNN as a Trump critic” to support his family.

Speaking about the letter on CNN, Duncan said he “read it first is like a breakup letter — but what they missed was I broke up with them a few years ago when they decided to not be conservative but be crazy.”
Duncan described a “mini-cult” in Georgia that “formed a relationship with Donald Trump's cult in 2020 — and it was a match made in hell.”
"And now all of a sudden you've got this crazy party that is not really a party, it’s just chaos and confusion,” Duncan continued. “And there's nothing that I'm proud about what they're doing. It's not certainly the Republican Party that I grew up in. and I have no desire to be a part of that party.”
