Two thousand years ago, St. Paul found himself blinded by a bright light on the road to Damascus. The dramatic experience led him to stop persecuting his opponents and to take up new beliefs.
Today, many former leftists are taking their first steps on their own road to Damascus, and the right is not doing nearly enough to capitalize on this unprecedented mass exit from the left.
It all began just a few short weeks ago when gay New York hairdresser Brandon Straka posted a hard-hitting video explaining why he is no longer a Democrat or a liberal. Since then, his #WalkAway Campaign Facebook group has attracted more than 172,000 members. A multitude of videos from other WalkAways have been posted online.

That’s why the Democrats are trying desperately to import more and more aliens and put them on welfare—and why they are so committed to voter fraud.
There's a rule out there that goes like this: "Don't believe your own propaganda." Once again, Democrats are breaking this rule. So blinded by Trump derangement they think the entire country shares, they fail to see anger tearing their own party apart.
It's going to be interesting to see what happens.
Soon to be known as La Demócrata party.
But what are the requirements of natural morality?
Surprised google hasn't shut them down. By "mistake" until Thanksgiving, of course.
At the end of the day, people don’t like being lied too.
Until recently, many on the Left didn’t realize they were being lied too. Many on the left still don’t care and are perfectly willing to rationalize some greater truth.
The MSM must ignore them or it will add fuel the this #walkaway movement.
Conservatives should welcome their escaping, celebrate their new found liberty and greet them with open arms and a clearly expressed foundation to rebuild their belief system.
Why wouldn’t the main stream media ignore the democrats leaving the “fold”? They don’t want anyone to know democrats are getting sick and tired of the media and democrats for their acts of destruction of Our American Ways and America’s
way. Now we need to get rid of the department of education so EACH STATE can teach their children the Real History of this Great Country. (No I’m not a teacher, I’d have been fired a long time ago).
>>I DONT WANT THEM.<<
You need to realize that a large percentage of Americans just don’t follow politics that closely and, if they do vote, they vote the way they always have, without really appreciating the overall implications of their vote.
But today the left, and by left I mean the Dem leadership, has gone so far off the rails that those who don’t follow politics closely find themselves unexpectedly beset upon by left wing loons reacting to something said innocently. This upsets them. It’s a revealing moment to realize that people you thought you were friends with will judge you severely because your personal view of a matter differs from theirs.
In other words they’re receiving education in the one of the best forms, by example. And they’re not liking what they’re learning about the party they’ve always reflexively voted for in the past.
This is a good thing, and we should welcome them with open arms if they’re willing to come into a party where personal liberties are still respected.
Our Primary is this next week, I expect many ads after that.
The #WalkAway movement has a huge presence on Facebook. Many of the “testimonies” are heart-felt and very good to see. Many of them have become aware of the lies and the enemedia. Others, I close one eye and grit my teeth.
One guy went to a Trump rally to cause trouble, but was welcomed so warmly that he stayed to listen. Then went to a second rally two States away, and the same thing happened.
Talk about “being woke”! He’s a HARDCORE Trump supporter now, but still a thug at heart. I don’t want to see him cause trouble in Trump’s name!
Others sound so phony, I can picture them nudging their friends and smirking about having us on.
Still, it IS happening. Humans are herd animals and want to be in the biggest best herd, and on the winning side. Trump has collected a BIG herd and is winning BIG. It’s not surprising that the sinking ship over there has people changing sides.
