Tulsi Gabbard — onetime Democrat and independent — is joining the Grand Old Party.
Garbbard, who ran for president as a Democrat, made the announcement at a rally for Republican Presidential nominee Donald Trump Tuesday night.
Gabbard recently became an honorary co-chairperson for Trump’s transition team — a position she is serving with Robert F. Kennedy Jr., another former Democrat and independent, Fox News reported.
Gabbard said she looks up to Trump and his leadership “to transform the Republican Party and bring it back to the party of the people and the party of peace.”
“I’m proud to stand here with you today, President Trump, and announce that I’m joining the Republican Party. I am joining the party of the people,” she said in Greensboro, North Carolina, a swing state in the 2024 election.
“The party of equality. The party that was founded to fight against and end slavery in this country. It is the party of common sense and the party that is led by a president who has the courage and strength to fight for peace,” Gabbard said.
