[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Imagine if you contributed campaign money and voted for Donald Trump on "we're gonna build a wall and we're gonna crack down on illegals" and three months after taking office, he laid off the entire Border patrol and tore down the existing border wall.  You'd feel you'd been scammed.

That's exactly what's going on with this set of Democrats suddenly switching parties.[/quote]

You're damn right we'd be pissed.

But, that is not what is happening here.  They are leaving the Democrats because the policies they are supporting are bat$hit crazy.  They cannot put their names behind policies that are crappy for their states or for the country.

Thompson, the first Democrat to switch parties in LA last month said this:
"The push the past several years by Democratic leadership on both the national and state level to support certain issues does not align with those values and principles that are a part of my Christian life."

Right now, the Democratic Party is attracting only far left believers.  Moderate Democrats are finding there is no place for them.  [/quote]

Bullshit. I'm a moderate dem.  And as far as I'm concerned, the "certain issues that don't align with values and principles that are part of Christian life" are for the most part stupid manufactured and overhyped faux outrage du jour, like we're suddenly supposed to be outraged over drag queens.  Spare me your idiotic hype.[/quote]
