Thousands Leaving Democrat Party in #Walkaway Movement - CrimsonPhantom - 08-24-2018 12:34 PM
Quote:For months now a growing movement on social media is highlighting the thousands of people leaving the Democrat Party as leftist leaders continue to embrace more progressive ideologies. Its called the #WalkAway movement and it could spell good news for Republicans come November.

I don't think this is impacting the Democrats, YET, any more than the Republicans. Both parties are losing members to independents as the loudest voices in both parties tend to be extremists.

Even if these people that leave the Demoncraptic Party and don't want to vote for Trump that's fine. If the withhold their choice by not voting it's the same as giving a vote for him and not for the Demons.

Don't kid yourself. There are more than enough Democrats still to take the House.

If the democrats do somehow take the house and the economy starts to falter after superheating for the past year, Trump and the GOP will win by a landslide in 2020.

If they can't hold the house while the economy is "superheating" might be just a little more than ridiculous to think they will win in a landslide if it tanks.

LOL. That's why Democrats have been performing worse than 2016 in all those special elections.....oh wait.

#walkaway appears more of a Russian psyops campaign than anything real.

It's just as real as the Republicans who have walked away. People leave or change parties. Woop-dee-do.

Yep. This is just a Russian led attempt to build some sort of 'groundswell' of astroturf that some dumb people might use. But this is really not going anywhere. The Dems are united.

Well they have won 1 out of 10.
Their boy in Georgia with a record amount of money did worse than Hillary.

Except for the many Democrats who voted for Trump and are disgusted with the anti-capitalist wing of the party gaining ascendency.
Democrats are losing members.
But so are the Republicans.

Special elections are not a good indicator. dems are able to put all their effort and the little bit of money they have into one district, the fake news media has weeks if not months to try and destroy the Republican candidate, all to push the scam that the dems are winning. That isn't a valid, nationwide strategy.
And it's not like dems have even fared that well.
