I make no secret of the fact that years ago I was a Democrat, but that increasingly unhinged political party drove me and so many others to leave it and I became an Independent Voter. The courageous Tulsi Gabbard followed a path that is very familiar to the rest of us who decided to #WALKAWAY from the Democrats.
First she spoke out hoping to effect change in the Democrat Party by drawing attention to its abandonment of the working class and the poor. She also drew attention to the party’s still-increasing intolerance and its abandonment of free speech and other principles. And so on and so forth until the realization set in that the Democrats at present are a hopeless case and thrive on spreading hatred and division.
The former Congresswoman also said “I’m calling on my fellow commonsense, independent-minded Democrats to join me in leaving the Democratic Party. If you can no longer stomach the direction that so-called woke Democratic Party ideologues are taking our country, I invite you to join me.”

“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”. Gabbard also pointed out how the Democrats:

Another great take from Sasha addresses the notoriously corrupt 2020 presidential election, which has joined the 1876 and year 2000 elections on the scrap heap of political outrages which installed the likely loser of the race in the White House:
“They changed voting laws to close the enthusiasm gap they battle with in every election and simply collect votes from voters who weren’t motivated to go to the polls themselves. They took complete control of nearly every major institution just to stop Trump… ” 
Here at Balladeer’s Blog I’ve written plenty over the years about how the increasing derangement, intolerance and fascism of the Democrats drove me to leave that political party and become an Independent Voter. Periodically I shine light on other people who have come to feel the same way. Here are several: 
“The video centered around how Petrov had considered herself a Democrat like most people her age. She was neck-deep in leftism, especially in her university … She couldn’t get through a math class without it being woke. Soon, Petrov found herself unable to continue identifying with the left and as her video states, she left it. This includes her university which had sunk so far into wokeness that it stopped being a place of learning.” (NOTE FROM BALLADEER: Which is why I often refer to how Democrats have
WE NEED THIRD PARTIES! Democrats in office wage war on the rest of us and Republicans in office care only about their own share of political graft. That’s life here in the Biden Crime Family’s corporate fascist kleptocracy!
