    Georgia Democrat Rep. Switches Parties: Democrats ‘Crucified Me’ and Abuse the Black Community
    https://www.breitbart.com/politics/...democrats-crucified-me-abuse-black-community/

    "My name is Rep. Meisha Mainor and today I made the decision to leave the Democrat Party. I represent a blue district in the city of Atlanta so this wasn’t a political decision for me. It was a a MORAL one. I will NEVER apologize for being a black woman with a mind of my own."

    “When I decided to stand up on behalf of disadvantaged children in support of school choice, my Democrat colleagues didn’t stand by me,” Mainor told Fox News Digital, asserting that her Democrat colleagues “crucified” her for supporting school choice and standing against efforts to defund police. She said she has always stood as the type of politician who will “work across the aisle to deliver results for my community and the people I was elected to represent.” But her leftist colleagues did not support her.

    “They abandoned me,” she said, explaining again that her decision to leave the Democrat Party is not a political decision but a moral one.

    Mainor told Fox News Digital that it is “humbling to be embraced – for the first time in a long time – by individuals who don’t find fault in a black woman having a mind of her own and be willing to buck the party line.” She added that she would not be surprised if she received backlash from Democrats, adding, “The most dangerous thing to the Democrat Party is a black person with a mind of their own.”

    “So, it wouldn’t surprise me,” she said.

    Further, Mainor said she will continue to focus on her key issues — education and school choice — while also working to “help grow the Republican Party, helping us not focus — not just on preaching to the choir, but growing the congregation.”

    This phenominon of black voters and politicians moving from the donkey party to the GOP is not something new. Polls show it's moved from a trickle to something substantial over the last few decades and continues to grow, Each election cycle results in an increase of the percentage of blacks voting for GOP candidates which is becoming a real problem for the Democrats. Who can blame minority voters for giving up on the Democrats? After all what have black comminities actually gotten for their political loyalty to the Democratic Party? Every single large urban area in the country controlled by Democrats for the last several decades has turned into a cesspool-like third world country with hopeless social conditions.

    I welcome all black voters back to the Republican party, as my experience is that most blacks are socially conservative at the same time they have been politically liberal. Now they recognize the Democratic Party has never done anything for them except to cynically treat them as being worth nothing more than a preditable vote.

    Understanding Why More Blacks Voted Republican in 2022
    https://www.dailysignal.com/2022/11/25/young-black-voters-want-freedom/

    "Among the key headlines from the 2022 election were gains by Republicans among minority voters. According to the AP VoteCast survey, Republican House candidates got 14% of the black vote, almost twice the 8% of the black vote that Republicans captured in 2020 and 2018. The difference between the percentage of black votes that Democrats got compared to Republicans was 68 points, compared to a difference of 83 points in the 2020 election and 82 points in 2018. This was even more pronounced among younger black voters, ages 18-44, where the difference between percentage voting Democrat and Republican was 54 points, compared to 76 points in 2020 and 75 in 2018.

    The Republican Party is most aggressively taking root among younger black voters.
    Per Pew Research, 28% of black Republicans are ages 18-29, compared to 17% of black Democrats and 10% of white Republicans. My own sense is that younger blacks are less inclined to think of themselves primarily by race and less inclined to think of their future in terms of racial group identity politics."

    Former Dem turned Republican Mesha Mainor shares emails from Democrats showing their true RACIST colors.

    It's too racist to post. See at the link. https://twitchy.com/samj/2023/07/16...m-democrat-showing-their-true-colors-n2385447

    Mesha's gracious response to this vile Democrat hate? 'Dear Democrat, I’m sorry you feel this way. I pray everyone has a great Sunday! It’s another day the Lord has made.'

    Another Black Woman noted: 'I'm sorry for the awful things being said to you. I registered as GOP in 2020. Welcome aboard.'

    Another noticed that we don't see Republicans switching to Democrat.

    To another vile racist Mesha replied: 'Dear Democrat, I’m sorry you feel this way. Be blessed and don’t give yourself a heart attack from your hate. I have only taken breaths since my switch from the Democrat Party. You can watch my legislative actions in January.'

    Does it surprise anyone that Democrats of all stripes - you know, those super tolerant. free speech loving. woke people of the left - wasted no time demonizing and trying to destroy Rep. Mainor? If so raise your hand.

    Democrats Are the Real Racists, and They're Proving It Yet Again
    https://pjmedia.com/news-and-politi...ists-and-theyre-proving-it-yet-again-n1711182

    Democrats love to push the narrative that they are the party of tolerance and acceptance. They’ll frequently boast about how diverse their coalition is, and accuse Republicans of being racist for — well, for pretty much any absurd reason they can conjure up.

    Yet, time and time again, we see evidence of how the only minorities the left actually cares about are the ones who vote the right way. Conservatives like Clarence Thomas, Tim Scott, and Winsome Sears are routinely attacked with racist rhetoric from the “tolerant” left.

    And it doesn’t take much for Democrats to show their true colors.

    Last week, Georgia State Rep. Mesha Mainor announced she was leaving the Democratic Party. Since then, she’s been the target of a flood of racist hate mail from the left. Mainor shared some of the emails she received on Twitter.

    Here’s one letter (edited for graphic language).

    I would like to help your retarded black a— by telling you. That saying you would support any candidate picked by the GOP during the primary is retarded. Not only is is retarded you live up to the word n—r by just following blindly. Remember you were a Democrat and “felt abandoned” to become a Republican, and now you’re going to follow blindly like you did with your party. You’re the stain on society that needs to be flushed. I wish you the absolute worst in your political history. You Uncle Tom b—h.


    And another:

    You dumb— aunt Jemima mother f—ing traitor! I will be sure to take a good chunk of my retirement savings, which is substantial, and will donate it to whoever it is that will be running against you, you self-hating black negress b—.

    Oh, yo’ll see come 2024 how I will help to make sure you are defeated! Go run in a Republican confederate district that loves self-hating n—rs lie you!

    And another, containing even more slurs and racist tropes:

    You n—r bitch, you need to get back on the plantation before Massa Stacey whips yo a— back into shape — you need to stop eating your fried chicken and watermelon with Vernon Jones and back Ms. Nat Turner!

    As I said in another post the number of gullible black folks has been shrinking ever day since the BLM riots made black lives shorter and more dangerous
