Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump switched political party affiliations at least five times since the late ‘80s, according to voting records
obtained byThe Smoking Gun.
Mr. Trump, who after years of teasing the idea announced on Tuesday his
GOP bid for the White House, may soon have to answer for why he left the party as recently as 2011.
Mr. Trump registered for the first time in New York as a Republican in July 1987, only to dump the
GOP more than a decade later for the Independence Party in October 1999, according to the New York City Board of Elections.

In August 2001, the billionaire enrolled as a Democrat. Eight years later, he returned to the
Republican Party,
The Smoking Gun reported.
After only two years as a registered Republican,
Mr. Trump left the
party again, and in December 2011 marked a box that indicated, “I do not wish to enroll in a party.”
