If you haven’t already, you’re going to hear from many more former leftists who have gone to the right. Since Donald Trump first took office in the White House in 2016, the Democrat party has gone insane. The constant drumbeat of “Russia-gate” and the “very fine people” lie were bad enough during Trump’s first term.
But the Biden presidency, and its signature issue, the “pandemic,” showed a party completely unmoored from all reality. Not partial; complete. Not only did the federal government shut down the economy over an illness that didn’t do more than a bad flu usually does, but it forced thousands of small businesses to close forever. The government interfered with the rental housing market and forced landlords to give apartments to people for free.
Meanwhile, the Democrats and the left have tried to compel Americans to believe there’s no such thing as biological sex, all while cheering for gruesome chemical and surgical child abuse that it calls “gender-affirming care.”
And now, after Los Angeles is burning in the worst wildfire in the nation’s history, even more Democrats have said “enough.”
It’s happening in the upper echelons of politics, too. Lindy Li is a former fundraiser for the Democrat party. Until very recently, she was drumming up support for Joe Biden, then for Kamala Harris. Now, she tells the Daily Mail that she was “fully indoctrinated in the Democratic cult.”
In what Li calls the most “painful but rewarding” periods of her life, Li has jumped ship as is looking forward to attending the inauguration of Donald Trump on Jan. 20. Originally born in China but living in the U.S. since she was four years old, Li said she woke up when she saw the gulf between the party’s claims and reality. Harris, she was told, was a shoo-in for the presidency, but in fact, the public hated her. Not only that, but the party wasted billions of dollars, some that Li raised, on a worthless campaign full of lies and empty promises.
She tells her story in an exclusive interview with the Mail. In recent media appearances, Li puts her finger on how the Democrat party does it: “They pretend to be so loving and caring.”
Here’s a sampling of what X/Twitter users had to say in response.
Poor Anne doesn’t seem to understand what she’s seeing.
Naturally, not everyone is willing to trust a defector right away.
Some are unsurprised and pleased to see a leftist party operative see the light.
