Former Hawaii Democratic Rep. Tulsi Gabbard announced she is joining the Republican party Tuesday night.
Taking the stage before thousands in Greensboro, Gabbard cemented her conversion from Democrat to Republican.
‘It is because of my love for our country and specifically because of the leadership that President Trump has brought to transform the Republican Party that I’m proud to stand here with you today and announce that I’m joining the Republican Party.’
In 2022, she announced she was leaving the Democratic party to become an Independent.
Regaining control of the mic after Gabbard’s announcement, Trump said he was stunned by the announcement, which he had not known was coming.

The former president called her a ‘woman that everybody loves’ who has ‘so much common sense’.
‘Boy you are popular’ he told her in front of the crowd as she brought her on stage.
Gabbard said the Democratic Party is now ‘completely unrecognizable’. She was a member for more than 20 years.
She ran for president as a Democrat in 2020 and ended up endorsing Joe Biden when she dropped out.

The former congresswoman called Kamala Harris ‘anti-freedom’ and ‘pro-censorship’ and slammed her recent foreign policy moves.
‘Without even pretending to care about peace, as President Trump talked about, she has shamelessly embraced the endorsement and support of warmongers like Dick Cheney, and Liz Cheney,’ she added.
