We have already seen too many cases of party switches where the finances were at best, questionable.

Cool story. The private schools that school choice lets public school kids go to are just as bad. No school voucher program actually opens good privates or allows transfers to good school districts, they just allow for profit privates to get a cut of education dollars.

A Peach State lawmaker who angered her Democratic colleagues in the Georgia state House of Representatives over her support for a recent school choice bill is expected to announce that she is officially switching parties.
Mesha Mainor – a Democrat who has represented District 56 in the Georgia state House since January 2021 – will announce shortly before noon Tuesday that she will switch her party registration to Republican.
"When I decided to stand up on behalf of disadvantaged children in support of school choice, my Democrat colleagues didn’t stand by me," Mainor explained of her decision in a statement to Fox News Digital. "They crucified me. When I decided to stand up in support of safe communities and refused to support efforts to defund the police, they didn’t back me. They abandoned me."
"For far too long, the Democrat Party has gotten away with using and abusing the black community," she added. "For decades, the Democrat Party has received the support of more than 90% of the black community. And what do we have to show for it? I represent a solidly blue district in the city of Atlanta. This isn’t a political decision for me. It’s a moral one."

Good riddance.
Your post gives a clue as to why this may be happening.
When you demonize the opponent with false smears and hateful rhetoric and all the while embrace absolutely nutty positions on issues (abortion on demand with no restrictions, allowing biological males to compete against women, restricting speech, defunding the police, etc.), expect reasonable people to run away from you. Now, you might say that ALL Democrats don't embrace the positions listed - but how many Democrats have spoken out against them?

Yes, before the southern strategy and the major shift in the southern, racist block from the Dems to the GOP.
Abe Lincoln would be a democrat today.
Actually, every president but Trump would be a democrat today, alas.
Not so much. The party switchers understand that the Republican Party has achieved managed democracy. You can say people are furious about abortion and shootings and whatever, but it doesn’t matter if they don’t get to vote. Republican judges, money, and just strategic and tactical brilliance have outflanked the Dems at every turn.
When one side literally has the guns, the ammunition and the money, it doesn’t matter how many people they have on their side. They just need enough foot soldiers to use those guns. And Donald Trump has given us those foot soldiers.
The smart play is to become a Republican, and get on record now.
You seem awfully excited about fascism.
