RUN, GLENN RUN!!!!!Glenn Beck: 'I'm Out Of The Republican Party'
Outspoken conservative radio and TV host Glenn Beck declared he was "out of the Republican Party" on Wednesday during his show "The Glenn Beck Program," according to Politico.
"I've made my decision I'm out. I'm out of the Republican Party," Beck said. "I am not a Republican; I will not give a dime to the Republican Party. I'm out. I highly recommend run from the Republican Party. They are not good."
Beck's decision to depart from the "Grand Old Party" comes because he said it was failing to combat Obamacare and President Obama's executive actions on immigration.
"They ran and they said they were doing all of these great things and they were going to stand against Obamacare and illegal immigration they set us up," Beck said. "They set us up. Enough is enough. They're torpedoing the Constitution and they're doing it knowingly. They're taking on people like Mike Lee and Ted Cruz and they are torpedoing them. Knowingly."

He'll be saying he doesn't agree with the GOP on everything but we've got to stop Hillary or . . . Literally anyone we nominate because they're just crazy over the top liberal Marxist degenerate communists.
