Clarence Thomas’ wife shares fake news posts about blacks leaving Democratic party

.... Ginni Thomas, a lawyer and conservative activist, shared a number of posts from “The Citizens Mandate” that appeared to show former members of the Democratic party — but the individuals are models posing for stock images.

“Thank you, #WalkAway movement, for showing us there are American citizens appalled at what they are seeing in the Democrat Party and its activists,” Thomas wrote on July 16 along with the mocked up image of an African American woman.

The item showed the model along with a list of inflammatory reasons she purportedly left the political party. ....

Thomas shared a second post from the Citizens Mandate page on Saturday that showed an African American man who the group also claimed had left the party. ....

This what not the first instance of Thomas sharing questionable material on social media.

She has also shared posts critical of the survivors of the Parkland school shooting and conspiracy theories about George Soros.

Those people who with much brouhaha publicly "walked away" on Twitter only had conservative followers, so I have a little bit of doubt that they were Democrats.

Meanwhile actual, confirmed Republicans walking away from the GOP are making headlines.

which is why they lie, cheat, and do whatever they can to stop people from voting Dem.

Dems should not be discouraged. Black Americans are the most reliably Democratic voting block out there.

Repubs had to tone down their racism against Latinos and Asians because someone reminded them that a few of those folks vote Repub (Cubans). But hardly any Black Americans are buying what the GOP is selling.
