Is David a DNC spokesman? Because if he isn’t he should be.

When you are a fellow traveler, you don't need to have the direct connection and the paycheck. Commonality of beliefs is all that is necessary.

Because, as we are all well-aware, no one would ever reject the left’s (soviet socialist inspired) policies and rhetoric unless they were subjected to massive brainwashing and coercion from Russian operatives. Why, there is a Russian in my kitchen right now, forcing me to reject everything leftist!

the media and their dem lapdogs are laying the ground work for another excuse in case they lose in the midterms. They will ratchet up the “Russian Collusion Delusion” and point to their rigged polls showing a “blue wave” as proof that the “Russians hacked our elections again!!”

LOL. These delusional, hate-filled types should keep lying to themselves if it makes them feel good. At least they aren’t bothering to try to win back moderate voters who supported Trump like rational people would do right now.

And he calls Trump “authoritarian”! How silly. As if relaxing regulations and using executive power significantly less than his precessor somehow equals authoritarianism. I doubt this hysterical fellow even knows what authoritarian means.

I don’t believe the walkaway stuff to begin with. It’s Twitter and Facebook that are trying to influence elections to one side. How do I know they aren’t the authors of walk away?

Isn’t everyone who works for CNN a DNC spokesman? How could anyone tell the difference between them?

Uh, why would Twitter and Facebook make up things in order to encourage people to leave the Democratic Party? They are left-wing organtizations after all and censor controversial conservatives.

The #WalkAway testimonials I’ve seen on YouTube sound very legit to me. The Dems need to accept that their radicalization is pushing people away from their party.

So now everything is going to be about the Russians? I really can’t take much more of this nonsense.

Top U.S. Communist Boasts That Party “Utilizes” Democrats

Communist Party USA boss John Bachtell boasted in a recent column that his Marxist-Leninist organization, a tentacle of the Soviet regime in America for decades, “utilizes” the increasingly radical Democratic Party to advance its totalitarian objectives in the United States. Writing in the Communist Party propaganda mouthpiece People’s World, Bachtell suggested that, eventually, a “radical third party” would become a viable option to advance communism in America. However, for now, he argued, fending off what he calls the “ultra-right” — essentially anyone to the right of Obama, whom American communists openly backed in both elections — requires the CPUSA to continue utilizing the Democrat Party as a “vehicle.”

In his column, Bachtell, who was selected last year to serve as the national chair of the Communist Party USA, offers a wide array of arguments for why communists must continue to work through the Democrat Party. For instance, at least in the collectivist communist mind, the Democratic Party is “home” to “African Americans, Latinos, other communities of color, women, most union members, young people,” as well as various “social and democratic movements.” In reality, of course, there are plenty of blacks, Hispanics, women, and young people who boldly reject statism and the extremist Democrats promoting it.

Loudon argued that today, less than 1,000 hardcore Communist Party operatives and their few thousand allies in the Democratic Socialists of America “effectively dictate Democratic Party policy.” If the far larger constitutionalist and Tea Party movement could learn from the opposition’s tactics, “they can have a real shot at restoring the Republic.” In the end, Loudon argued, the battle for America is not between Democrats and the GOP. Instead, it is between constitutionalists and communists. If constitutionalists want a chance to win that battle and preserve liberty, he concluded, understanding and learning from the opposition is crucial.

The process of communists using other parties and movements to enslave populations is hardly new — it works the same from Brazil to South Africa and everywhere in between. Communism and communist regimes, of course, murdered well over 100 million people in the last century alone, making the “movement” by far the most murderous and bloodthirsty in the history of humanity. However, as The New American has documented extensively, there have always been even more sinister forces operating behind the communists and their legions of useful idiots. If liberty is to survive, exposing and countering them remains essential.

"However, #WalkAway has also now been connected to Kremlin-linked Russian bots..."

I find it kinda strange that all of those Russians making those #WalkAway videos have such perfect American accents. Those Russian bots must be really smart. Or maybe CNN is just really dumb. Hmmm... Which is more likely?

The Russian may have told Tom Hanks to warn us of the extraterrestrial dinosaurs parachuting in with red capes as a higher likelihood than Trump’s successful election. Now Tom wants to register dinosaurs with red capes to vote Democrat.
