'Country before my party': Trump-supporting Georgia Democrat won't resign after 'outcry from the people'
by Mike Brest

In a 180-degree turn, Democratic Georgia state Rep. Vernon Jones said Thursday he will not resign because of backlash to his endorsement of President Trump.

Jones, 59, announced his support for the president earlier this week, pointing to Trump's "handling of the economy, his support for historically black colleges, and his criminal justice initiatives."

The endorsement earned swift condemnation from fellow Democrats in Georgia, who vowed retribution. In the face of this criticism, Jones said he intended to resign and not seek reelection for Georgia House District 91 on Wednesday.

He had a change of heart on Thursday.

That's good news, regardless of whether the people who encouraged him to stay are Dems or Rs. He's certainly better for his constituents than the Dems who condemned him.

He'd better not.  His constituents deserve better than having no Representative at all.

Make up your mind, man.

One thing's fo' certain:
The democrat-communists will never want anything to do with you again.

So...
Change parties.
Either to Republican, or at least "independent"...

I think it sucks this fellow allowed himself to be bullied out of an office his constituents he was elected to.  Now they have no Representative at all.  To me, that's on Vernon Jones.  Way to stick by your principles, there Vern.  This is no time to take your bll and go home.

I think it makes perfect sense.  He isn't the first liberal to endorse the liberal in office.

AG William Barr: "I'm recused from that matter because one of the law firms that represented Epstein long ago was a firm that I subsequently joined for a period of time."

Alexander Acosta Labor Secretary resigned under pressure concerning his "sweetheart deal" with Jeffrey Epstein.  He was under consideration for AG after Sessions was removed, but was forced to resign instead.

@Chosen Daughter
Ouch!  I does occur to me that no black rat would have dared support/endorse President Trump before $3T in spending on top of years of bloated spending bills.  To catch 2 a week apart and months before the elections is noteworthy.
