Tesla Inc investor Ross Gerber responded to Geoff Duncan’s recent comments, suggesting that the former Georgia Lt. Governor should consider running for the top office.
What Happened: Gerber, Co-Founder, CEO and Chief Investment Officer of Gerber Kawasaki, took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to voice his opinion on Duncan’s remarks.
He stated, “This guy should run.” This was in response to a tweet from The Washington Post, which highlighted Duncan’s belief that the Republican party should “pivot” away from Donald Trump to secure future victories.
Why It Matters: Geoff Duncan’s comments come at a crucial time for the Republican party. Duncan has been vocal about the “misinformation” and “lies” surrounding the election results. His recent statements outside the Fulton County Courthouse emphasized the need for the party to focus on policies rather than falsehoods.
“As a Republican, this is a pivot point for us. This is a pivot point that we’re either going to wake up to or we’re not,” Duncan remarked.
His call for a “GOP 2.0” that emphasizes meaningful policies over tweets and lies resonates with many who believe in the party’s potential for positive change.
Meanwhile, Recent polls have shown that the 2024 presidential election could end up being a rematch of the 2020 election, which saw Trump and Joe Biden face off. Ron DeSantis is currently polling behind Trump in the 2024 Republican nomination race.
