Former Secretary of Labor Tom Perez was elected this week as new head of the Democratic National Committee. And President Trump immediately jabbed him as only Trump can.
If that humiliation wasn’t enough, when Perez tried to fire back, he was BLASTED by average Democrats who are ready to leave the party.
Following Perez election, Trump masterfully tweeted:
Congratulations to Thomas Perez, who has just been named Chairman of the DNC. I could not be happier for him, or for the Republican Party!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 25, 2017
Perez was NOT amused, and responded by threatening Trump’s presidency:
Call me Tom. And don't get too happy. @keithellison and I, and Democrats united across the country, will be your worst nightmare. https://t.co/fu7WvLofrD

But Democrats who are sick and tired of their party’s pandering to Hollywood and corporate elites revealed that it’s Perez and the entire DNC that need to watch their backs:

@45Resistance unite behind what? Time Warner and George Clooney? Agreed-we need to resist, but DNC is not listening, again. No message.

Election of Tom Perez is the final straw. I'm out of this party. Time to form something new. It's 2017 not 1985… we can replace the Dems!

@kattracy Right? Let's all buy into the platitudes. Surely, they won't go back to being subservient to lobbyist and corporate donors. 😂😂😂😂

The @dnc continues to yell unity while telling their voters money matters more and to shut up. #DNCChair #DemExit

You might have noticed a lot of those tweets use the hashtag #DemExit, which has subsequently blown up on Twitter and other social media.
Like rats fleeing a sinking ship, Democrats everywhere are dumping their failed party.
