An attendee of President Trump’s rally in Jacksonville, Florida, said that she had to “jump ship” from the Democrat Party — a change that, she said, occurred after voting for former President Obama once.
Hundreds of enthusiastic Trump supporters lined up hours ahead of his rally in the northeastern portion of the state, ready to show their support for the commander in chief. One supporter, Kristen Reese, identified herself as a former Democrat, who made the change during Obama’s presidency after voting for him once.
I think we’re really at risk of losing our freedoms,” she said. “I think there’s an extreme left agenda that has infiltrated the Democratic Party.”
“It’s not the Democratic party I knew growing up. I used to be a Democrat but I had to jump ship and go to the Republican side,” Reese continued, explaining that she switched sides when Obama was in office.

As a former Democrat(walked away in 1998) I just love how other former Democrats say “The Democrat Party has changed. It’s become more radical’’.
Truth is the Democrat Party HAS NEVER changed. It’s always

Truth is the Democrat Party HAS NEVER changed.

It was stealth back in the 70s and for another 20 years or so. Even as an activist, the need-to-know was operative. You had to see fishy things being said and done over time before it ws obvious what was happening.
There was also cancel culture way back when. It was just more subtle. You were not cancelled throughout society, just within political venues. Although, I know of instances where preferences were shown in the art world to those considered more reliably radical in regards to solo shows and prizes.
The in-your-face fury is new. And now, all aspects of life are subjected to PC and political litmus tests. It wakes more folks up in a hurry, people who weren’t even political before. Once someone is their target, the puzzle pieces click together quickly and the picture becomes clear.
