Former Georgia Lt. Gov Geoff Duncan says he hopes the Atlanta-based indictment of former President Donald Trump is a “pivot point” for the Republican Party, arguing in an op-ed that Mr. Trump is a political loser and the bill is “coming due” for his GOP loyalists.
Mr. Duncan, writing in The Washington Post, said that under Mr. Trump’s “self-centered stewardship,” the GOP squandered the House in 2018, the White House in 2020 and the Senate in 2021, which included two winnable seats in Georgia.
“Republicans face the real possibility of losing another election to President Biden,” Mr. Duncan said.
