Nah.

There are a ton of personal stories on there - new people consistently post on the page and in their group all the dang time.

It's pretty interesting - you should take a look.

Maybe you should ask women what they think, instead of making an assumption for them. Like Trump did.

I don't know about the No Malarkey Bus, but Trump is sending out a pink bus to reach out to 'Suburban Housewives'.

Yeah that'll resonate well. Makes you wonder what Einstein is in charge of his outreach.
I can tell you with 100% certainty I know more about women and what they think than you do.

Haven’t been on Facebook in a while now. Trailer park of the internet.

Then you have zero room to say that those accounts are all fake.

Thanks for playing. Bye.

I’m not dazzled. I’m pointing out that your point is invalid because it is off topic/a deflection from the point of the thread.

I thought Democrats were supposed to be for the little guy, but it seems now they only care about the "big names."
I’m not a Democrat, nor a Biden supporter/voter.

Not liking Trump, and feeling he doesn’t have the character to deserve a vote to be reelected, doesn’t make me anything other than someone who feels that way (I feel the same way about Biden, albeit re an election rather than reelection).

Everything isn’t ‘Us vs. Them’.

The OP is asking a question.

If you don’t like the OP’s question, then don’t answer it. The OP isn’t asking for your unrelated (above ^^) ‘two cents’.

All your (and others) unrelated ‘two cents’ reveals is your individual and collective butt hurt over non Democrats publicly supporting Biden rather than Trump.

Any one can AstroTurf a few hundred thousand anonymous/faked up bot social media accounts with money and the desire to do so. Little bit harder to get public figures on the record as swapping sides.

They call themselves "the silent majority". I believe they have a FaceBook page too.
It’s irrelevant to the thread. The OP asked for examples of prominent people. The only logical reason that you and others have an issue with the OP using the word prominent is being butt hurt about prominent non Democrats who have now defected to Biden.

If I was a prominent dem who flipped to Trump, there is no way on God's green earth that I would publicly announce it.

Why? The left has gone certifiably bananas.

They post your home address and phone number on social media.

They threaten your family.

Show up at your house at 2am with bullhorns.

They try and get you fired or banned or blackballed.

No thanks.
