Georgia Democrat State Rep Endorses Trump, Credits His Work For Black Community
Georgia state Rep. Vernon Jones (D) broke with his party on Tuesday by endorsing President Trump’s reelection bid, citing the president’s handling of the economy and support for historically black colleges.
“There are a lot of African-Americans who clearly see and appreciate he’s doing something that’s never been done before. When you look at the unemployment rates among black Americans before the pandemic, they were at historic lows. That’s just a fact.”
GA State Rep. Vernon Jones is the first elected Democrat to endorse Trump in 2020

Trending: Obama Is Organizing “Shadow White House”
A Democratic Georgia state representative officially endorsed President Donald Trump, making him the first state-elected Democrat in Georgia to do so.
Bucking his party, state Rep. Vernon Jones on Tuesday endorsed Trump for the 2020 presidential election, according to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. The Democratic lawmaker not only cited Trump’s efforts to grow the U.S. economy, but also his work to help the African-American community.
“It’s very simple to me. President Trump’s handling of the economy, his support for historically black colleges and his criminal justice initiatives drew me to endorse his campaign,” Jones said Tuesday. More
So a Democrat that understands that his party has offered little more than words for the Black community vs. Trump and his actions that have actually helped them. Does anyone want to tell me what Obama did for the Black Community in all of his 8 years?
