Many people are leaving the Democratic Party and joining the Republican Party.
Democrat-turned Independent Tulsi Gabbard, the former congresswoman from Hawaii, is endorsing former President Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential race against Vice President Kamala Harris. Gabbard served as the Democratic representative for Hawaii's 2nd congressional district from 2013 to 2021, but announced her exit from the party in 2022 after denouncing it as an "elitist cabal of warmongers." The former Democrat, who ran in the 2019 Democratic presidential primary against Harris, was recently recruited by Trump to help with debate prep ahead of his September 10 face-off against the vice president at the National Constitutional Center in Philadelphia.
In this way, many Democrats are rushing to leave the Democratic Party.
The UK's departure from the European Union is called "Brexit."
