Gabbard joining the GOP makes sense given what her old party has become. Gabbard supports real Americans, while Harris supports a small group of elites. Most importantly, Gabbard supports peace while Harris — as Cheney's endorsement proves — wants to continue starting endless wars. Republicans will take Gabbard's America First mentality over Cheney any day.
Gabbard is joining Team Trump for one reason: — her disdain for America's role in defending democracy. She's defended the actions of dictators for over a decade now — including Russia's Vladimir Putin — and hopes to use a potential second Trump term to promote her beliefs even further.

There's a 52% chance that Trump will be elected US president in 2024, according to the Metaculus prediction community.
