In a surprising turn of events, Lindy Li, a former heavyweight fundraiser for the Democratic National Committee (DNC), has announced her appointment to the Trump Vance Inaugural Committee.
This revelation marks a significant shift in Li's political affiliations, as she transitions from fundraising for the opposition to supporting the incoming administration of President-elect Trump.
According to RedState, Li has been an outspoken critic of the Democratic Party since the election, particularly targeting the Harris campaign for its alleged financial mismanagement. She has accused the campaign of squandering nearly $2 billion, leaving it in substantial debt. Li recently declared, "I was just appointed to Trumps inaugural committee!" signaling her complete political transformation.
Li's shift is not an isolated incident. She claims that several other former Democratic donors, disillusioned with the DNC, are also changing their political allegiances. "Im the first major DNC donor to join," Li stated. "Ive recruited others ... who are also extremely upset with the DNC."
Just a few months ago, WIRED recognized Li as a top influencer "shaping the 2024 election" and a staunch "Kamala Harris supporter." However, her outspoken criticism of the Harris campaign's financial mismanagement has led to a barrage of racially motivated attacks on social media. Li revealed that she faces vile insults "on a daily basis simply for asking questions about the Harris campaigns financial mismanagement."
Li's disillusionment with the Democratic Party is palpable. "I am done with them," she declared. "The Party of Woke and DEI is now calling for me, an American, to be deported just because I dared to tell the truth. They accuse me of working for either Russia or China, never mind the fact that the Chinese communist regime killed my great-grandfather."
Li's departure from the Democratic Party has not been without criticism. Some Democrats have questioned her swift change of allegiance following Harris' dramatic downfall in the 2024 presidential election. However, her appointment to Trump's inaugural committee suggests that the incoming administration has faith in her future contributions.
In her critique of the Democratic Party, Li did not mince words, describing it as having the "stench of loser." She expressed her concern that "Democrats are going to be consigned to the wilderness for at least the next four to eight years."
Li's departure from the Democratic Party was not a quiet affair. She likened it to "leaving a cult" and revealed in a Fox Business interview that her decision led to her being ostracized and subjected to "public shaming" online.
In a recent Fox News interview, Li criticized Vice President Harris over rumors of her potential run for governor of California in 2016 or a possible presidential bid in 2028. "America has said, 'We don't want to be coconut-pilled. We do not want Kamala Harris. We don't want failed border policies,' and I feel like I'm liberated, and I can finally tell the truth that the Democrats completely failed on the border," said Li.
Li's optimism about the return of Donald Trump to the Oval Office is evident. She believes that President Biden's successor will usher the American economy into a "new era of prosperity." "You can just feel it," she said, reflecting her confidence in the incoming administration's potential to revitalize the nation's economy.
