‘Democrats! Democrats! Democrats!’ Politics invades popular reality show

A bizarre scene broke out on Bravo’s Below Deck when a charter boat passenger had a sudden meltdown. And let’s call a spade a spade, not all ugly political tirades come from TDS or the Left. Most, but not all.

The reality show episode featured a woman named Kelly, who behaved poorly on the boat by disobeying crew orders, jumping into the water without any safety vest and even threatening the captain. Her response to admonishment?

“I can do whatever I want!” she screamed.

“They’re f*cking Democrats! DEMOCRATS! DEMOCRATS!!!”

Never seen a guest this drunk that she berated the staff, threatened the staff, scratched the staff, and then screams “democrats”

“You cannot,” Captain Kerry Titheradge shouted back.

“I can! I can!” the woman responded.

A friend attempted to step in and deescalate the situation, but Kelly’s wrath was not to be deterred. She not only turned things up a notch, but she made the whole thing political for some reason.

“They’re a**holes!” she yelled. “They’re f**king a**holes! … F**king a**holes!”

“No, they’re not,” her exasperated friend said.

“They are! They’re f**king Democrats! Democrats! Democrats!” Kelly continued.

At another point, Kelly appeared to try to intimidate others by claiming that she “has FBI” in her family.

While drama is to be expected on reality shows such as this, Captain Kerry wasn’t about to let the woman carry on for the sake of good television. He went to lock her in her state room while making it clear that he is in charge.

“I’m not gonna take any threats from anybody. Who you know — it doesn’t matter. There’s one authority on this boat, and it’s me,” he declared.

The explosive episode wraps up with police approaching the boat and “To Be Continued” displaying ominously on the screen.

Video of the bizarre moment was shared on social media with a slew of X users gloating in the fact that she clearly was NOT a democrat:

Found her IG page! She’s literally friends w/Kelly Dodd (look thru her pics, you’ll see her & Kelly Dodd & also pics w/her & the primary) – who’s surprised?? Her name is Kelly Furey: https://t.co/Coc2rS3WNs
