Tulsi Gabbard Announced That She’s Leaving The Democratic Party, And Literally No One Is Surprised

After years of aligning herself with the likes of Tucker Carlson, and more recently being touted as a potential running mate for Donald Trump, former Hawaii congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard has announced she’s leaving the Democratic Party. Gabbard, who has been a vocal supporter of Vladimir Putin, blasted her former party over a predictable list of grievances including “wokeness” and “anti-white racism.” In short, the type of things you’d expect a Republican to say.

Via ABC News:

“I can no longer remain in today’s Democratic Party that is now under the complete control of an elitist cabal of warmongers driven by cowardly wokeness, who divide us by racializing every issue & stoke anti-white racism, actively work to undermine our God-given freedoms, are hostile to people of faith & spirituality, demonize the police & protect criminals at the expense of law-abiding Americans, believe in open borders, weaponize the national security state to go after political opponents, and above all, dragging us ever closer to nuclear war,” Gabbard said on Twitter.

Despite being a member, Gabbard has been a vocal critic of the Democratic Party over the years, so her resignation is not exactly a surprise. She’s repeatedly aligned herself with Republicans on anti-trans initiatives, anti-abortion bills, and again, pushing Russian propaganda.

As news of Gabbard’s resignation spread across social media, the reactions were overwhelmingly divided into two camps: “What took you so long?” and “Good riddance.” In fact, at the time of this writing, “She’s a Russian” was trending on Twitter.
