>> absolutely, we have one in georgia, jeff duncan, the lieutenant governor for the state. i worked against him more often than not, he is standing for harris because he values protecting this country from a authoritarian and the evisceration of our value system as a nation. so there is a absolute benefit to talking to people who may not agree on every policy but what you want them to do is prioritize the values the most fundamental. in this election, because of these two candidates, there could not be a starker choice. it is one of the few times we can use of her time that is valuable in this way, for those whom this is neck and neck with the concerns they have. her ability to diminish their worry and decrease the likelihood they will support her, it is worth it. we do have folks that heard a lot of misinformation and aggressive and vile this information and they want to be with harris but they have been fed a lot of information and they need someone to break it up. her willingness to defend and protect the people of this country and talk about the importance of protecting

these are people who are true patriots, jeff duncan from georgia. i would think you would want to be on that side of history when this is remembered. and it could matter. voters out there. you look at bush, trump voters. those are somebody that maybe in '16 they voted for biden, to hear from bush now it will make a difference. far from me to tell a former president what to do. >> conner, i don't remember if i lost that student council election, i just thought my signs were winners and a guy slowed up and he had amazing vote nirvana you can do anything. i did not win in the sign game. when we return we were just talking about him. john kelly, former chief of staff came out swinging calling his old boss a fascist. we will get into how fascism works and how it works to demolish democracy and how it is running ramp pied run rampid in our politics right now run rampid in our politics right now . >>> certainly the former president is in the far-right area. hey certainly an authoritarian. he admires people who are dictators, he has said that, he falls in t

general, alberto gonzales former congressman adam kinzinger, former georgia lieutenant governor jeff duncan, former senator jeff flake, and just within the last day, former trump aide cassidy hutchinson, who spent time inside trump's white house now the republicans for harris movement will get even bigger next week. hitch hutchinson will join liz cheney with two other former trump officials, alyssa farah griffin. sarah matthews to make their case against trump in pennsylvania. and look, many of these republicans will tell you that they have very little in common i'm going with most of harris as policies. but they say it's not about that we might not see eye-to-eye on many policy issues, but i trust her to hold people accountable. >> i trust her to uphold our rule of law. >> we may disagree on some things but we are bound together by the one thing that matters to us as americans. more than any other and that's our duty to our constitution. >> now as for trump there's no love lost. >> he's reshaped the gop in his own image, right? >> any claims, those who are stand in his way are rhinos, not

we have had former congress people, the former lieutenant governor of georgia, jeff duncan.ks to the election is a fundamental choice between people who are putting their country first, people patriotic people, people who understand we have our fundamental freedoms and democracy at stake, versus donald trump who just this week we are being reminded left and right of what he did when he was president to try to cling to power and overturn the results of the election, whether it's the facts that we are learning overnight from the recent filing, including his refusal to say anything and just scroll twitter when the capitol was being attacked on january 6, whether he was informed about vice president pence being rushed to safety and him saying, so what. jd vance tuesday night refusing to acknowledge that donald trump lost the 2020 election. people are being reminded about the danger that donald trump poses to our country and our freedoms every single day. i think it's leading republicans, including congresswoman cheney, who may not agree on all issues or many issues with the vice

nbc news quoted the lieutenant governor jeff duncan saying, because of peer pressure, some republicans reluctant to publicly support kamala harris adding that there may be a whisper caucus that might lead to more republicans voting for harris than are openly saying. you voted for the vice president. of course, you're saying so. do you sense similar sentiments among republicans in pennsylvania? >> the answer is yes and true. i think there are a lot of republicans out there who are going to quietly cast their votes for kamala harris, or not vote for president at all. i think many are reluctant to not go public because of peer pressure. as connor just pointed out, in pennsylvania, people are now, they're aligning their voter registration with their voting patterns. out where connor lives in the western part of the state, we have a lot of democrats out there who are functional republicans. just like we ever in the south eastern part of state. we have a lot of republicans who are functional democrats. what's happening is people are lining their voting registrations with their voting pattern

i think it was a former lieutenant governor duncan, jeff duncan who said voting for, harris does not it makes you a patriot. it is important for all of these people to come out. it is not that everyone is looking for one individual person. seeing a wave of all these people and avalanche of all these former republicans or current republican saying that it is okay to cash about for kamala harris. eventually he does have an impact when these elections are really on the margins. there is very few people. every bit that you have to be able to bring people on to kamala harris' side will be important. >> ryan, are you encouraged to see them, more republicans, at least in against trump? is a publicly and openly? >> i did not ever think that in my lifetime, i would see kamala harris supported by cheney but also bernie sanders. that is an umbrella party. i think that it is great. i think that we don't need to preach to our own choir right now. the democrats are on board. they understand how important this election cycle is. they understand that this is a mirror over trump it is the squishy sof

yesterday i was at a rally with josh shapiro, raphael warnock and jeff duncan.re was an opportunity where they were trying to rally republicans to vote for kamala harris, to have women say it is ok to go into the ballot box. you go into your ballot box, no one is going to know how you cast your vote. so, if your husband is saying you should vote republican and your friends are saying you need to vote republican, in your mind and conscious you need you -- you need to think to vote democrat, you can do that. you will see a lot of discussion encouraging women to vote their conscience. host: what about the latino vote in the state of pennsylvania? guest: outstanding question. the latino vote is in the south-central part. we have a latino belt that runs up where to 22 allentown into bethlehem. we are seeing right now latinos in particular feeling like they were being ignored by the democrats. the latino vote has always been solidly blue. but the feeling that democrats have turned their back on them and have gone away from working class people and more towards the eli

i want to go because we have jordan we're just former lieutenant governor geoff duncan also joining us and jeff, i just wonder when you when you look at this conversation that we're having now first, just tell me what your response is. seeing trump come to your home state and say something that governor kemp himself says is not true well, i think first of all, it's a sobering reminder of where the republican party is at right now and how deepen the gutter we truly are to think we're going to use this platform to politicize what the mayor just said is one of the worst storms to hit this region ever, at least in any of our lifetimes but look, donald trump is down in georgia today only because he cares about trying to win georgia because he's realized if he loses georgia, he's probably going to end up going the jail. >> and that's why he's stuck in up to brian kemp. that's why he's playing the games. he's playing. >> it's very interesting looking at this picture here, who is in charge of the agenda today, and that was brian kemp brian kemp, stay laser-focused during that press conference on the hu

duncan. he's also a republican who has endorsed vice president harris, jeff great to see you as always. i want to talk about what harris is doing today before we get to donald trump's visit to north carolina, harris, obviously campaigning with former congresswoman liz cheney. do you think that her message is going to resonate? with these disaffected republicans are more moderate voters. if so much of her focus is a warning about what trump could do in a second term versus pitching her own policies directly to republicans and what a, what a bump donald trump is and what a horrible precedent he has been and will be. but it really also built a strong bridge to republicans talking he about how inclusive she would be in her administration. i got to speak with a privately and was reinforced with wanting to have somebody in the cabinet wanting to get those those voices of conservatism around the conversations in the white house. if every american, if every persuadable republican could have that conversation i had, there is no doubt kamala harris harris will win this election jeffrey, you're te

now former republican lieutenant governor of georgia, geoff duncan, he is of course backing kamala harris for president. this november. jeff, always grateful to have you on the program. thank you so much for being here. >> i'm interested to know where you think things stand in georgia as early they voting opens there in terms of, you have launched an effort to try to convince many of your fellow georgians that donald trump would be an unacceptable person to send back to the oval office. >> what are you hearing from your friends, from your neighbors, especially as we see these national polls tightening the way that suggests that trump is in position potentially to win this election, or at least is likely to his harris is yeah, no doubt this is going to be a close election. i think obviously we've all predicted that and i'm certain to see that come out. >> voter intensity in the urban areas is going to be strong. and in the rural areas, i think this is going to come down to the suburbs. and what type of intensity do they show up and vote where i'm sitting here today is about two miles as the crow flies, where donald trump is
