Democratic Georgia Rep. Vernon Jones endorses Trump for reelection
A polarizing Democratic state lawmaker from Georgia reportedly broke party ranks on Tuesday — endorsing President Trump’s reelection bid.
State Rep. Vernon Jones told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution that he’s backing Trump, in part, due to the president’s handling of the economy and criminal justice reforms.
“There are a lot of African Americans who clearly see and appreciate he’s doing something that’s never been done before,” Jones told the paper.
“When you look at the unemployment rates among black Americans before the pandemic, they were at historic lows. That’s just a fact,” he said.
