The WalkAway movement was started by Brandon Straka, who left the Democrat party and became a Trump-supporting conservative after the 2016 election.
Straka inspired hundreds of thousands of other Americans who felt the Democrats had moved too far left and also walked away from the party. Now Facebook has purged his page.
Straka’s followers created thousands of videos documenting their personal stories, and now it’s all gone.
Andrew Mark Miller reports at the Washington Examiner:
