Report: 46,000 Pa. Democrats Become Republicans Due To Trump

[RockX]

PITTSBURGH (KDKA) – Nearly 46,000 Pennsylvania Democrats have switched to Republicans since the beginning of the year.
According to Penn Live, some experts attribute the mass exodus to Donald Trump.


There’s even a title for the movement. It’s called “Ditch and Switch” and calls for lifelong Democrats to abandon the party, register Republican, and help ensure Trump’s place in the general election.


Professor of Public Affairs at Franklin and Marshall College, Dr. G. Terry Madonna, tells the paper he has a theory behind the switch.


“With the increase in support in exit polls for Trump among working class, blue-collar Democrats, it is my belief that these are people who fall into that genre,” said Madonna.


The numbers are similar in other states as well.


The paper says in Massachusetts, as many as 20,000 Democrats have gone from blue-to-red this year with Trump cited as a primary reason. And in Ohio, as many as 1,000 blue collar workers have promised to switch parties and vote for Trump.

And yes, I have voted for Trump.

If Trump becomes president, you have no one to blame but yourself.

This is because, you stupid, insignificant racist, Trump has zero chance to win the general election.

Democrats are switching sides to push for him to be the RNC's nominee because they know even Republicans won't vote for him.

Whether or not he gets the nomination, they'll eventually switch back. But if he does, it ensures a Clinton win. It's simple partisan dirty pool, and it's working.

You are cheering a Democratic scheme to ensure a win for Hillary Clinton.

Did you get enough Kool-Aid?
