Jeff Denkan, the former governor of George Denkan, has announced that he will leave the Republican Party and join the Democratic Party, a step he says has been coming for a long time as he has headed the Republican Party heads.

“My journey becomes a democratic, I started well before Donald Trump tried to steal the 2020 elections in Georgia,” Denkan wrote in the newspaper.

“There is no history in a calendar or line in the sand that refers to the specified moment at a time when my political heart changed, but it was,” he continued. “My decision was focused on my daily struggle to love my neighbor, as a Republican.”

Denkan pointed to many political issues that played a role in his decision to change parties and criticize the Republicans for their dealings with issues such as health care, doctor, arms safety, migration, and how to help the poor.

He said that his time in his post his knowledge is the best way to “love my neighbor” is through public policy. Before his time as a ruler Lieutenant, he served at Georgia’s house from 2013 to 2017. He chose not to run for his re -election as a lieutenant in 2022.

The former Republican said that the lawmakers of the Republican Party have argued decades ago that the lack of health insurance is to obtain a job, but they indicated that most unbelievable persons in the state of peaches live in working families, but they do not have insurance due to the ability to withstand costs or eligibility.

“Then, the truth is that they have a job, just a wrong job,” Dunkan wrote. “One does not provide health insurance or generate enough money every month to provide their health insurance plan.”

Denkan also said that the Trump -backed spending bill in the law last month will leave the financing of medical aid “in a state of chaos”, because it reduces hundreds of billions of dollars from the government program. He also criticized this management of the additional nutritional assistance program, which is more known as food stamps, and its impact on ensuring that the school is not hungry.

Denkan referred to the polls that show support for arms control measures such as examining the global background and the laws of red.

He also criticized the Trump administration’s collective immigration policies, which said, “It has turned into a lesson on how your neighbor’s love is not loved.” He said that the immigration policy must focus on securing the borders, and the deportation of those in the country illegally who have committed crimes, but a road to nationality must be created for other immigrants in the United States

Denkan’s switch comes after the Republican Party in Georgia was expelled from the party earlier this year due to the alleged dispute. The party’s decision was martyred by its support for Biden in the 2024 presidential elections, and as soon as it was left, his support for former Vice President Kamala Harris, in addition to the alleged efforts to undermine and sabotage some Republican candidatesIncluding the current ruler, Bert Jones, and 2022 Senate Candidate Hershel Walker failed.
