The mayor of North Las Vegas has ditched the Democratic Party, accusing them of deserting work-class Americans and becoming the party of the 'elitists'.
John Lee, 65, who has been a Democrat since his first state election victory in 1994, said he was switching allegiance to the Republican Party as he can no longer abide the direction his former party is going.
Lee told Fox & Friends on Tuesday morning that the Nevada Democratic leadership was now dominated by 'card-carrying' socialists.
'In the Democratic Party of Nevada, they had an election recently for leadership, and four of the five people were card-carrying members of the socialistic (sic) party,' Lee said.

Way too late... Democrats have been socialist for a long time, now we're in Ozero's third term via Biden... and the Democrats have gone on to using Communism as a path to Islamism. Can this destruction of the great USA be stopped?... Will it be stopped? Who will "bell the cat?"

One can easily say that Mr. Lee licked his finger and stuck it in the wind before making his decision. However, the wind isn't blowing in the direction Mr. Lee has chosen.
The Pelosi's are faring better than the Trumps in today's politics. Sure, it's theft. But who ever said the democrats were honest?

He’s 66. He has been a demonrat for 27 years. What was he for the other 21 years of his voting age life?

Let's hope that more democrats become "woke" to what a perversion of humanity the movement has become.

He is right but he is very, very late in figuring that out.

Good for Lee. So he is reverse-woke. Welcome back. But, Lee, what brought you to the dark side in the first place? #7 notes you weren't a dim earlier in your years. So, yes, I'll ask the same question. What were you then?

Count me as unimpressed. Not the first liberal to switch sides when the natives get restless.

Count me as very skeptical. He's been a Dem all his political life and anyone expects a change?
He just sees the writing on the wall and expects a Pubbie blowout in '22.
There's a reason the intelligence agencies don't hire 'walk-ins'.

Yes, the Obama Democrats have become card carrying communists.
Soon, very soon Biden and his HO will ship US Trump voters to re-education camps in the Mohave desert.
Just before Stalin died on March 5,1953, he ordered his NKVD to build more Gulags in Siberia.
If you want to know more about then coming Biden re-education camps read the GULAG ARCHIAPELOGO.

If you are not a communist at this point you need to leave the democrat party. They are so far to left they make Putin blush.

Remember jim jeffords? He got the rock star treatment when he switched sides. But he went to the dark side so Mr Lee will most likely be completely ignored by the media.

Don't know anything about this guy, but it is possible to change. One example is David Horowitz. One of the writers, I think, it's on RedState who used to be a dem.
