Political Chatter – All the things you’ve ever wondered about politics.

What started in Baltimore has exploded into a movement to clean up America. Be the change you want to see in the world. #StopTalkingStartDoing pic.twitter.com/XVAKKhQ456— #ThePersistence (@ScottPresler) May 2, 2020 On April 15, 2020 Georgia State Representative and lifelong Democrat said he was going to be voting for President Trump... I’m a Georgia State Representative and lifelong Democrat. But in this election, I’ll be casting my vote for @realdonaldtrump. I didn’t leave the Democratic Party. The Party left me. #MAGA #KAG #WalkAway pic.twitter.com/BUs4kRZ7JG— Vernon Jones (@RepVernonJones) April 15, 2020 What happened after that has been an absolutely incredible thing to witness.

We’re in Atlanta picking up trash & collecting food items to donate to the community. This is love in action. #StopTalkingStartDoing pic.twitter.com/kpBtcxLaWB— #ThePersistence (@ScottPresler) May 2, 2020 Right after the state of Georgia opened up, 100+ volunteers gathered to pick up trash. Black, white, young, old, & we were united in our love for America. This is what they don’t want to show on television. pic.twitter.com/dSPMlwOetL— #ThePersistence (@ScottPresler) May 3, 2020 Vernon Jones gained a lot of attention when he endorsed President Donald Trump for reelection. That led to his fellow Democrats attacking him and him deciding to step down. However, after a wave of support from (mostly) conservatives, he reversed his decision to stay on the job. “In the old days when someone’s house burned down, all the people in the neighborhood would come and help that family,” Jones said. “If someone lost a loved one, people would be there for them to help them through those trying times.” “If somebody was trying to find work, they helped them find work. I mean, that’s the American spirit,” Jones said. “That’s what we Americans are about.” “I don’t care about any party affiliation,” Jones said. “It’s not about party affiliation. You know why? Because It’s about what’s in your heart. We may share a particular party or particular organization, but it’s really about what’s in your heart.” In other remarks to the volunteers, Jones said he hadn’t sought out the national spotlight, but now that he had it, he would stick to his guns. “This is not a political rally,” Jones said. “My battle cry was: My country first. America first. American families first.” “It doesn’t matter where you come from. It’s doesn’t matter your race, your creed, your gender, [or] anything,” Jones said. “What matters is that we stay vigilant and vocal about what our values are.” Presler told Breitbart News that he thinks the event was a success and that he plans many more cleanups around the country.
