It is run by DEMOCRATS. Many who were Hillary supporters.
It won't be hijacked by people who claim to be but in reality hate democrats.

I see a lot of talk from others and other groups. A lot of social media warriors.
But the keyboard is no substitute for running for everything or demanding town halls!

I did not support Hillary in the 2016 Primary and was NEVER a Hillary fan. I held my nose and voted for her in the GE but was never enthusiastic about her.
Maybe you should clarify your thread's statement because it sounds a lot like the kinds of attacks made on Bernie Supporters.

Stop the GOP.

(36,222 posts)It is not open to republicans who are afraid of Trump but believe in dismantling the social safety net, or think social justice is just to divisive to be supported politically or just don't give two shits about it.

(31,828 posts)We know who the 'avid' and vocal Republicans are. They aren't allowed at our meetings. From everything to these folks supporting a man who put a 'White History Sign' month in his now closed deli - to the 'Painting of a Blue Line' -
We don't want them. We know what they support. They can vote for us in General Elections if they want. If you voted for Trump or make excuses for him you are not welcome in our group.
The Republicans still have Freedom Works - they need to go to those meetings.
