Former New York Gov. George Pataki and Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) say they disagree with real estate mogul Donald Trump’s call for Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl to be executed for leaving his military post in Afghanistan.

“You’re asking to be commander in chief. Up your game,” he added.

Graham said Bergdahl should have a fair trial.

Pataki echoed that call, noting that Bergdahl is innocent until proven guilty.

Trump was set to be onstage later, during the debate for top-tier candidates.
