Mmusi Maimane will resign as DA leader

[Jola]

They've acquired additional ammo now to mount a full on assault. Propaganda machine is already in motion. A lot of garbage is being shared on whatsapp ridiculing Maimane and steering opinion a certain way.

MM is no longer in the DA, so whatever they say is irrelevant.

And it is just not possible for anyone to collect more ammo against the DA than is freely available against the ANC.

Just start with Baleka Mbete v Al Jazeera, only the smallest tip of the iceberg.

Watching ETV and quite a few KZN DA members have gone over to the ANC. This just proves that they were never in it for the good of the country. If they were then they would've gone over to COPE or some other opposition party, but not the frikken corrupt useless ANC.

Who is in the DA for the good of the party? Would you call people who initiated that witch hunt against De lille to be in the DA for the good of the party? How does sacrificing voters to Good over nothing equate to the good of the party?

Unfortunately, they have more ammo to work the race angle against the DA now.

Its now a case of ''See, I told you so'' and the trash media will eagerly partake in it.

The truth is inconvenient - no one likes it and you're no exception - creating nonsensical smokescreen... bringing the ANC and EFF into a DA mess... Why not include the right-wing FF+ while you're at it? because it doesn't suit your narrative? Either you're clueless or you're naive...

Says the guy who, after all the evidence shown that the ANC paid some PR firm to create this concept of "white monopoly capital" in order to polarize our society - but sure, the DA is just a mask for a new apartheid government ... makes you wonder how manipulated you are by what lies you're being fed - it's actually really sad...

All I want is to live in a country in which we're all South Africans - full stop. A country where we don't use words like white monopoly capital to segregate people and scare people into voting. A country where everyone can grow, and not just the comrades at the top.

I wish you could want the same thing pal

Relatively unknown to whom?

You are aware that he was the DA's mayoral candidate for Johannesburg in 2011 and stood as official opposition in the Johannesburg City Council?

He was also made the national spokesperson in 2011 and was elected as the deputy federal chairperson in 2012.

Still a junior to all the veterans in the party, if it wasn't for the Zille she would be where all the juniors are, alongside the Ganas and the Ramulifhos. Looks to me like people are going to great lengths to absolve the Madam from everything.

The old guard moves in... Make the DA Great Again.

When was the DA ever great?

 

[TheJman]

The ANC must collapse Jo'burg City council, force by-elections - take back the City from floundering DA and anarchic bedfellows EFF.

Yeah, because under the ANC things were working so well in Joburg right... why are so blind in your support for an organisation that only wants to inrich the elite at the expense of the poor?

Why have you brought emotion into a topic which needs clear headed, see the wood for the trees thought process

Off course he played the race card. Our lefty politics and journalists advocates on the daily that black people have zero agency. Ironically it was exactly this mentality that cost the DA, which is why opponents of the DA, and their incoming leadership, are aggressively pushing the identity and race agenda.

 

[zolly]

She did?

I thought so, but I may be wrong. A friend of mine told me this was the case, but he may just have been drinking the Twitter kool aid.

Let's just draw a line in the sand and say who works in government for the good of the country, and not for their own personal interest ... saw a title for a book, "dont vote, it encourages the b*rtards

Kaizer Chiefs can lose all the their games, be relegated to the first division and they will still get sponsors pumping good money into the club. Same cannot be said of Black Leopards or Jomo Cosmos.

It is never a good idea for a small party like DA to want to play the same game as the ANC.

 

[Vrotappel]

Playing the race card. Yep he was not a great choice.

Sounds suspiciously like you are talking about Herman Mashaba.

fukk RIGHT off. Parks and his band of pirates were looting the place dry and delivering NOTHING but masturbation projects.

Na, speaking about every politician, around the world - sadly you can make it fit for every single one

Thankfully the DA bucks the trend set by the ANC where we have outdated 70-year old struggle veterans making decisions...

What did I absolve her of?

I already acknowledged that she was aware of the need for representivity but not at the expense of the heart of the party. Which is the gist of my argument.

Yeah, but he has blind support for the ANC, and somehow justifies their actions - it's okay for the ANC to **** the poor... plus, the DA is just waiting to start apartheid again.

He has sadly been so indoctrinated to fear white people, that he can't see the anc stealing from both his pockets - but that was their plan, and based off the proof here, it seems to be working? "shrug"

 

[rietrot]

DA has just handed ANC enough propaganda war chest for the next few years.

Anyone who still takes the ANC seriously deserves whatever they get.
