Former Republican Georgia Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan expressed bewilderment that former President Donald Trump is continuing to dominate polls of Republican primary voters despite the fact that he was impeached twice during his first term and has now been indicted twice on dozens of felony counts since leaving office.
Duncan's remarks came in the context of the fact that Republicans are currently fielding the most racially and ethnically diverse group of presidential candidates in the party's history, and yet voters in the party are still clinging to a man who once said there were "very fine people" who attended a neo-Nazi rally in Charlottesville, Virginia in 2017.
"The only way to explain Donald Trump right now is Stockholm Syndrome," he said. "He kidnaps the Republican Party in 2016, mistreats us, abuses us and then gets... arrested, and now his own victims are coming back to defend him."
Duncan lamented that many Republican candidates appeared to be capable of defeating President Joe Biden in next year's election, but that none of this would come to pass so long as Trump is dominating the GOP.
"Until we break that, we are not going see the true talent that we've got sitting on the bench," he said. "We should be able to run anybody but Donald Trump... for president as a republican and beat Joe Biden handily."
