Biden-loving Palm Beach Democrat QUITS in furious rant about 'MAGA' tactics who ... trends now
The chair of the Palm Beach County Democratic Party announced her resignation in a furious rant about 'MAGA' tactics which she said are being used to attack her.
Mindy Koch, 70, wrote in her resignation letter, 'My hope is that in doing so I can expose this subversive, cancerous element... trying so hard to destroy the party from within.'
The surprising announcement came only six weeks after Koch survived efforts by Florida Democratic Party Chair Nikki Fried to oust her for allegedly not complying with party bylaws on contracts.
Koch had a tumultuous 17-month term after winning the election to lead the local party in Palm Beach by a single vote - 160-159 - in December 2022, as reported by the Sun Sentinel.
In her resignation letter, she said personal attacks and harassment from within the party left her with 'no choice but to resign,' adding the decision went into effect immediately.

'The MAGA tactics of refusing to recognize my legitimate election as chair spawned a relentless campaign attacking me... and others. It has made it impossible to fulfill our mission to elect Democrats,' Koch wrote. Pictured: President Trump supporters wearing faith in God and Trump shirts at a rally
The 70-year-old wrote in the letter: 'The ongoing vicious personal attacks and harassment directed toward me and my leadership team from a small minority of members of the Palm Beach County (Democratic Executive Committee) are destructive and unprecedented.'
'The MAGA tactics of refusing to recognize my legitimate election as chair spawned a relentless campaign attacking me... and others. It has made it impossible to fulfill our mission to elect Democrats,' she added.
But the resignation by no means suggests she's quitting local politics, as she told the local publication in a telephone interview.
'I'm OK with the decision. I've never quit anything in my life. So this is a first for me,' she said.
'My team was fabulous and very supportive. And I met some great people and learned some interesting things — and don't think I'll be up at 3:30
