    Not only are the Democrats having trouble raising money (except from Soros, of course), but people are leaving the party in droves.

    One sign is a grassroots movement called #WalkAway thats said to be setting Twitter ablaze. Groups Dems have always counted on for support... minorities, gays, progressives in general are questioning the left's hateful and violent response to a Trump presidency.

    Heres a glimpse of what's going on. We may be witnessing the end of a party... cause of death... suicide.

    More on the #WalkAway movement, "disgusted Dems, ex-progressives and lapsed liberals."

    Yes, they are no longer a threat. No reason to even vote now. Trumpees can just have a beer and watch Fox instead.

    I want to know when the biggest party actually gets a name. We Independents outnumber both Republicans and Democrats.

    One door closes, another opens. Maybe its time for Democrats to drain their own swamp and take their party back. You know, like Republicans did by electing Trump? #MAGA

    And yet Independents still only vote for one or the other of those two parties. Ross Perot was an independent.

    lol Yeah, those words you used really maek you sound like an Independent ....

    It's pretty crazy how Leftists and SJW's are RUNNING from the actual names of the ideas they represent.

    They say all the buzzwords, "Fox sucks", "Whites are evil!", "Feminism is equality!"

    Then they immediately swear the are an Independent. It is EXTREMELY common in the last year and it s big reason this #WalkAway thing is gaining steam. People are seeing the lies as actual lies.

    I can't wait until we start debating on actual logic and facts instead of feelings.

    We often disagree politically, but I absolutely agree with you here.

    I have a very good friend who is liberal, and we've come to agree that a third political party that blended financial conservatism, support for socially liberal issues and a demand for smaller, more efficient government would have more support than both current parties combined.

    A demand that Fed.gov stay out of our business, bodies, marriages, bedroom and churches while bringing accountability to a bloated, inefficient government and military would allow for a party that, while still in disagreement is some areas, would appeal to most voters in the U.S.

    I'm still holding out hope that the Libertarian Party might eventually come around to this, but it will probably have to be a party made from scratch...

    It's all on the democrats to repair their factions. I'm not sure I remember a political party in my life time, that internal ideology was so far apart. That one long tent, it covers it's member from the horizon on the left to damn near the horizon on the right. Thanksgiving must be a hoot! Christmas, I won't go, they give each other beautifully wrapped gifts tied with bows. They so gently place the packages under the tree. Careful not to jostle the other IED's ticking down toward Christmas.

    My prediction, the 2020 Democratic Convention is going to erupt like a bloody Vesuvius.
