Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

A Dem see's the light and calls it like it is.

Ouch. Rats called out. Lets see how this poor woman will be tortured by the white rat leaders. If you aren't on the plantation, you are the enemy.

Imagine sticking with the teachers unions when there are schools in our state that have a 3% reading proficiency . I will always maintain that rats forcing children to stay in failing schools is one of the most inhumane things rats do.

Some things haven't changed in the rat party since long before the Civil War.

Good for her. Lets hope this is the beginning of a trend.

Georgia Democrat defects to GOP after she says Dems 'crucified,' 'abandoned' her

Democrats have 'gotten away with using and abusing the black community,' Mesha Mainor told Fox News Digital

A Peach State lawmaker who angered her Democrat colleagues in the Georgia state House of Representatives over her support for a recent school choice bill has announced she is officially switching parties.

"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 explained of her decision in a statement to Fox News Digital. "They crucified me. When I decided to stand up in support of safe communities and refused to support efforts to defund the police, they didn’t back me. They abandoned me."

"For far too long, the Democrat Party has gotten away with using and abusing the black community," she added. "For decades, the Democrat Party has received the support of more than 90% of the black community. And what do we have to show for it? I represent a solidly blue district in the city of Atlanta. This isn’t a political decision for me. It’s a moral one."

Asked whether she believes she will face pushback from Democrats over her decision, Mainor said, "The most dangerous thing to the Democrat Party is a black person with a mind of their own. So, it wouldn’t surprise me."

"I support school choice, parent rights and opportunities for children to thrive, especially those that are marginalized and tend to fail in school," Mainor said at the time. "The Democrats at the [Georgia State] Capitol took a hard position and demanded every Democrat vote against children and for the teachers union. I voted yes for parents and yes for children, not failing schools."

Mainor justified her position by noting that some schools in her district have 3% reading proficiency rates and that many kids cannot do simple math.

    Why do Tug conservatives (and historical liberals) care more about black kids than the dems on Team Dazzler?

    This is what gives me hope for the future- If Dems keep up their current tactics, they will continue to eat their own.
