#WalkAway: If I had to describe the people who've chosen to #WalkAway from the Democratic Party only one word comes to mind: Americans. Quintessential melting pot. E pluribus unum. Out of many, one. Americans.
They are every ethnicity, every color, every religion, every nationality, every age, every gender, every sexuality. Many were born on foreign shores. They are gay, straight, bi, Black, White, Asian, Christian, atheist, Jewish, Muslim, clean cut, dread-locked, single, married, {insert any and every descriptor here.}
#WalkAway is just Americans but each story has the same spark. There was a moment when the scales fell from each one's eyes and they suddenly realized, "The Democratic Party and the Mainstream Media have been lying to me." That was the moment they discovered fire...and Walked Away.
You might say 1776 has commenced again, as Alex Jones famously yelled at Piers Morgan. Indeed it is a Declaration of Independence against a foreign power. There is no longer anything American about the Democratic Party. Oh, they go through the motions. Once every four years at the DNC they pay lip service to the Constitution and the Pledge of Allegiance (not under God). For some incomprehensible reason they talk long and loud about the original #WalkAway poster boy, Ronald Reagan, who famously said, "I didn't leave the Democratic Party. The party left me." It's still leaving its supporters.
They underestimate the American people. We're a nice, peace-loving, easy-going people so they trespassed on our good nature seeing us as as stupid "huddled masses" but they forgot the part about "yearning to breathe free." They pushed us too far. Everyone has a breaking point.
One of my favorite #WalkAway stories is about a Vietnam veteran, we'll call him Joe, who voted Democrat for sixty-two, count 'em, 62 years. But this year, when multi-millionaire Nancy Pelosi had the gall to ask him for money, Joe wrote back, "ZERO. Not supporting a Democrat Terrorist Group."
Last week, Joe who is nearly deaf from gunfire in Vietnam, was jumped by two males claiming to be with Black Lives Matter but, the police believe, actually with Antifa. They punched, knifed and told Joe, who is a suicide survivor, "Go kill yourself. All of U.S. troops should die."
That's when his son posted his story in the #WalkAway Facebook group, to encourage his father during a difficult time. He ended the story, "I cannot wait for my dad to wake up in the morning and see all the love and support he is receiving...I'm pretty sure he will cry." There are 13,000 likes and 3,700 comments...to date.
It takes tremendous courage to #WalkAway. Those who take that step have lost family members, friends, even employment. But they have something even more precious: the Courage of their Convictions, their integrity and their self-respect. They are the new Continental Army each with their own personal Declaration of Independence. They have the battle wounds, the scars and unforgettable stories of bravery and sacrifice.
They are all "highly resolved...that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."
Open to the public case studies of voters who have left the Democrat Party and their reasons why:

Time is coming to walk away from Facebook
Likely the top contender for Thread of the Day, Lenora, thank you.
PING!
It doesn’t take any guts to walk away from the Democratic Party all you have to do is vote Republican
Now if you want to go into a city like Seattle or Portland with a giant Trump flag and argue with those people that take some serious guts but I’d also say I take some serious stupidity
This is why the vote in the United States is a secret ballot you don’t have to share your point of view you with anybody
And furthermore there’s wonderful places like free republic thank you Jim Robinson where you can express your points of view with like minded patriots and share your point of you without having to leave work and go out into the streets
I’m not sure if the Democrats see what’s coming here on November 3 but they’re going to get absolutely destroyed they’re gonna have their ass handed to them like it hasn’t happened in a very very long time
They have shown themselves on TV over and over to be a slimy evil degenerate vicious party that is willing to stoop to unbelievable depths of depravity and evil
That site was login only...but found this...

Jump me and they get a couple of 9mm Fiocchi hollowpoints each.
The telephone polls had Alf Landon crushing FDR in 1936. FDR's voters didn't have phones.
If Trump gets 5% of the black vote I will be shocked, and his pandering has probably cost him re-election.
Well, I feel better.(Facebook)
Might be interesting to see the positions now of those who posted then.
Thank you! Good testimonials.
ROTFLMAO! I’d better go edit the article! ;)
Aw, thank you. True Confession: I had tears running down my face while I wrote it!
Yeah, I have strongly mixed feelings about Facebook but I met some of my best friends there. I use all platforms and hoping to get on Parler soon.
Facebook locked me out (5-6-ish?) years ago, and demanded I contact several of my family relations who are also on Facebook to get them all to fill out a form and give me a code to get back in. Yeah... that’ll never happen.
Cripes.... it’s a stupid bulletin board. I’ve setup up dozens of dial-up and internet based bulletin boards over the last 30 years. They’re a dime a dozen. Facebook is just another waste of time that interferes and impedes with people coming face-to-face. Same as Gmail... it’s a stupid throw away email address that pretends to be important.
Facebook may have done more to damage the family than any other thing since Satan himself.
I hope there are millions of them...there should be...
do these people know Trump tried to kill two SS agents yesterday?
With a baseball bat no less!!!
Or something like that.
The more stupid things the msm publishes, the more hateful its base will become and the more fed up with dems and msm the rest of the dems will become.
And many will vote for Trump.
