Ex-Democrat turned GOP lawmaker says former party’s polices ‘sabotaging’ communities, led to her switch
Georgia State Representative Mesha Mainor discusses the reasons for her exit from the Democratic Party. Mainor commenting that it came to the point where, "not only were they not making a difference, they were literally sabotaging the community." Saying, the issues is that Democrat leaders are “not listening to the people, they are listening to a group of people that are creating an agenda that supports their own person agenda, not the agenda of the actual American people.” One example was the party’s support of illegal immigration she could not get behind, “there are people in some communities where they literally are living outside of an apartment building, or sleeping on a sofa. Because there aren't enough beds inside the apartment building. But yet, we want to send a billion dollars to the border, put people up in hotels, we're not even taking care of our own people. You have to take care of home before you can take care of others.”
