Georgia state GOP Assistant Secretary Ja’Quon Stembridge, 19, abruptly stepped down from his post last weekend, after a post on some social media platform alleged that Stembridge attempted to meet up with a 14 year-old boy through some dating app, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
State Republican Party chair Josh McKoon said Monday that the “allegations, while serious and disturbing, are only allegations… While the GAGOP condemns any such alleged conduct, it also stands by the principle that is the bedrock of the American legal system that all people are presumed innocent until proven guilty,” McKoon said. “Mr Stembridge is presumed innocent unless and until adjudicated guilty of wrongdoing in a court of law,” McKoon continued, even though resigning is the first and most reliable sign of guilt. A real MAGA leader would’ve called it fake news.
