'Democrat Voters Against Joe Biden' Group Has Trump Fanatics, a Psychic, but No Actual Dems

A new advocacy group ostensibly comprised of Democrats opposed to the election of Joe Biden appears to have the backing of few, if any, actual Democrats.

Those involved, however, do include a Republican operative whose group illicitly funneled millions into political contests, a longtime Trump fan whose son works for the president’s campaign, and a self-described celebrity psychic who’s taught best practices for exorcisms.

Democrat Voters Against Joe Biden is a project of an existing nonprofit advocacy group called Americans for Responsible Government, meaning it can engage in limited politicking and is not required to disclose its donors. Curiously, though it is not explicitly political, the group’s online donation page includes disclaimer language required only of registered political committees advising donors that they can only donate $2,800 per election. No such donation limits exist for nonprofits.

DVAJB set up a website in July and began running Facebook ads this month attacking Biden. The former vice president’s “mental state is slipping and we can't let him become the most powerful man on Earth,” one of the ads declares.

no fracture in democratic party in 2020 like we had in 2016 and ZERO relation to 2016 election period. We have 2018 to look at and compare. In 2018, with an evitable landslide, the MSM still try to make it sound like it was going to be close and GOP would end up holding the house

People who actually belong to the Democratic Party would say Democratic Voters, not Democrat Voters.

It's been brainwashed into them.

Either that, or the FOX News contractual obligation to say 'Democrat Party' every single time has teeth.

I can just see these idiots trying to engage in espionage or something.

"Hi! I'd like to look at your super-secret files, although I'm not a spy at all so stop looking at me suspiciously!"
