‘The Last Republican’ Filmmaker Steve Pink Talks How He Went From Comedy To Capitol Hill, And Won The Trust Of Political Polar Opposite Adam Kinzinger

If Kamala Harris wins the presidency, one aspect of her campaign that will be highlighted will be her support from Never Trumpers, the group of Republicans who want to ensure that the former president never makes it back to the White House.

In the election of 2024, these figures have been some of the most vocal in making the case that this isn’t a normal election cycle, that democracy is at stake.

Proof enough is that many of them will be casting their ballots for a Democrat for the first time. Adam Kinzinger is one of the them, having spoken at the Democratic National Convention and appeared on the campaign trail for Harris.

Steve Pink‘s The Last Republican is backstory of how Kinzinger, a staunch conservative, got to that place. The documentary offers some key, behind-the-scenes moments as the Illinois congressman, along with Liz Cheney, were made outcasts in the GOP as they joined the January 6th Committee, investigated Donald Trump‘s efforts to overturn the 2020 election and revealed bombshell details in hearings during 2022.
