Duncan, who served as lieutenant governor before stepping down, criticized the GOP for its continued focus on the 2020 election and its ties to former President Donald Trump. He went so far as to pen an op-ed in a left-wing newspaper advocating for Republicans to vote for Biden, claiming that the party needs to move on from the Trump era.
Many conservatives see Duncan’s endorsement of Biden as a stark departure from conservative principles and a slap in the face to the Republican party. By aligning himself with Biden, Duncan has called into question his own credibility as a self-proclaimed conservative and has raised doubts about his commitment to conservative values.
Despite Duncan’s efforts to position himself as a moderate alternative to the current political landscape, many conservatives view his endorsement of Biden as misguided and harmful to the conservative cause. In a time when the future direction of the country hangs in the balance, conservatives believe it is more important than ever to stand firm in their beliefs and support candidates who align with their values.
Duncan’s defection to the Biden camp has left many conservatives feeling disillusioned and betrayed. His decision to abandon conservative principles in favor of a candidate who stands in opposition to core conservative values has raised serious concerns about his commitment to the Republican party and the conservative movement as a whole.
