      Oregon state Representative Cyrus Javadi has left the Republican Party to become a Democrat, he announced this week.

      In a statement to Newsweek, Javadi said he „switched because the Republican Party abandoned the principles that drew me to it in the first place: limited government, fiscal responsibility, free speech, free trade, and, above all, the rule of law.“

      The ‘Pubs haven’t stood for this in Javadi’s entire life.  Better late than never on the realization though.

      B—s–t!!!!

      Does he:

      – Support Universal Healthcare?

      – $15ph minimum wage? – the Federal minimum wage has remained unchanged at $7.25ph SINCE 2009!!!

      – Union membership\rights?

      – Support the bodily autonomy of women?

      – Billionaires\millionaires paying their fair share in taxes?

      – Removing the $*176,100 pa* cap on paying social security tax?

      – A pathway to citizenship for undocumented people who entered the country as babies\children?

      My guess is that NO, he doesn’t!!!

      Republican lawmaker signals his recognition of the payoffs for betraying his county and the constitution more and more.

      Won’t be the first, they see the signs and will do anything to stay in power.

    6. Not too crazy considering most of these guys are pretty interchangeable. I’m sure someone will come and tell me how different the parties are but honestly they aren’t.

    7. „Support universal heathcare?“ No, he doesn’t. But neither do Democrats!

      Is he taking money from big donors and doing their bidding?

      Because it doesn’t matter what party you’re in if so.

    9. Different side of the same coin but at least he’s not actively participating in whatever the fuck the GOP is doing anymore

    10. The Republican Party never abandoned its self-proclaimed principles because it never believed in them in the first place.
