Former Democrat Who Raised Millions for Party Jumps Ship
Evan Barker, the woman who spent years volunteering for the Democrats and raising them millions of dollars, has now admitted she no longer recognizes the party or what it stands for.
Appearing for the first time on Fox News, she admitted that she was floored by how hypocritical and corrupt the party has become, adding that Democrats are bragging about Kamala Harris being endorsed by Dick Cheney was the breaking point for her.
“I’ve worked in Democratic politics a long time. I’ve raised the millions of dollars and I went to the DNC last month hoping to feel re-inspired, and instead, I just felt like I was in a room with the most out-of-touch and elite people in the world,” Barker told Lawrence Jones on Friday.
“I’m originally from the Midwest. A lot of the people in my family are union workers or have been in unions, and they are people who once voted for Barack Obama, and now they vote for Donald Trump,” she said.
“And for a long time, I did not understand why, and after raising money for Democrats and just being in these circles, I have realized that the donors control the party,” Barker said.
“They control everything. They control what the candidates prioritize, and I know that Republicans also have this issue, too, but Democrats are much bigger hypocrites about it,” she continued.
“I think what it comes down to is just the hypocrisy and the fact that I don’t recognize this party anymore.”
