That was quick.

Eight Democrats and independents switched parties today in Mississippi to the Republican Party.

During the ceremony local leaders expressed concern over the direction of the Democrat Party under the authority of Socialist Bernie Sanders.

The Socialists look to sweep control of the Democrat Party this year.

WLOX reported:
The Mississippi Republican Party is welcoming some new members and all of them were elected public offices as Democrats or Independents in this most recent election cycle.
The Mississippi Republican Party Chairman says he doesn’t expect this will be the last time they are welcoming new members to the GOP.
“We have had a relentless focus on switching conservative Democrats over to the Republican party,” explained MSGOP Chairman Lucien Smith. “They recognize increasingly that there is only one party that represents the conservative values of our state and that is the Republican party.”
All eight of the latest party switchers were from Smith and Covington Counties and one District Attorney whose district covers those areas. But the conservation didn’t take long to expand to the national party ties.
“We are in a scenario in this country where you can choose to be a member of the party led by Donald J. Trump or you can choose to be a member of the socialist Democratic party led by Bernie Sanders,” noted Governor Tate Reeves.

This is good news. Sounds like most, if not all these new Republicans were what one might call traditional democrats. A traditional southern democrat is a likeable breed of animal; in Georgia examples of these were Jimmy Carter, Lester Maddox, George Busbee, Sam Nunn before he got infected with Clinton liberalism, etc. Traditional dems are people you would break bread with; some different ideas but none of the liberal/communist infection running rampant in the current Dem party. To these folks Teddy Kennedy was a communist.

So this is good news. These dems will support Pres. Trump and his policies, because they're pretty much cut from the same bolt of conservative cloth.
