Fox News Host Exits His Company Over Support for Trump
Crowdpac cut ties with Steve Hilton, the right-wing host of The Next Revolution on Fox News, after his Trump-like politics created a tension within our platform and community.

A top nonpartisan political crowdfunding site on Tuesday cut ties with its CEO, a Fox News weekend host, and temporarily suspended all fundraising on its platform for Republican candidates.
In a Medium.com post, entitled A stand against Trumpism, a stand for democracy, Crowdpac, a for-profit website that helps candidates raise money online, announced a series of major changes including the departure of founder and CEO Steve Hilton, acknowledging that his vocal advocacy for President Donald Trump created a tension within our platform and community.
This isnt even close to true, but it has created unnecessary drag for many of our users working to raise funds and build support for their campaigns on our platform, Thomas continued. Our business has been built around removing friction from participation for leaders and candidates, and any perceived endorsement of Trumpism, true or not, could hinder our growth and their success.

(1,306 posts)And all the other stories about the sheer animosity and hatred that all things trump endears to the *majority* of people in the country is just further statistical evidence that there is no way that the orange idiot won the election in 2016.
Absolutely not one point in the analysis of the trending data prior to, or since, the election points to a possible (actual) trump win. Not. One.
There is no way those totals weren't goosed by hackers.

(6,916 posts)Thats what we need to restore Americas values and push out the venal lying corrupt GOP and its leaders.
We need support for DJT to be toxic, so that it hurts companies and CEOs and billionaires.
We are winning!
When the fall of this corrupt GOP happens, and it will happen, it will be like a lightning bolt. The bottom will fall out. Get ready.
