Former Democrats RFK and Tulsi Gabbard have both endorsed Trump and are working with him. It doesn't start and end there.
A former top California Democrat said she is switching to the Republican Party and voting for former President Donald Trump.
Gloria Romero, who led the Democratic majority in California’s state Senate for three years until 2008, announced her decision Wednesday during a press conference at the California State Capitol.
“Today, I am leaving the Democratic Party,” Romero said. “I stayed for as long as I could. I tried reforms, I spoke out, I voted."
“Today, I say goodbye, adios, I’ve had enough,” she said. “I am now another near lifelong Democrat who is joining the growing number of people — including key groups, Latinos — who are leaving the Democratic Party.”
Romero said she has changed her voter registration from Democrat to Republican, saying the Republican Party has become the “champion of working people” under Trump.
“I will vote for Donald Trump this fall,” she said.
Romero cited several issues that drove her to abandon the Democratic Party, including what she called “rigged” primaries.
Democrats “eradicated” 14 million votes to install their “preferred candidate,” Vice President Kamala Harris as presidential nominee, Romero said, comparing the party’s tactics to Latin American dictatorships.
She also cited gender ideology, saying it is “terrifying” that she, as a feminist, “would be condemned for saying that I can define a woman.”
The whole statement is worth reading.
