Former DNC Fundraiser Says She’s Been Appointed to Trump Inaugural Committee: ‘I Am Done’ With Democrats
Red State ^ | January 05, 2025 | Rusty Weiss

Posted on 01/05/2025 8:07:13 AM PST by george76

Lindy Li, a former major Democratic National Committee fundraiser, tells RedState she has been appointed to the Trump Vance Inaugural Committee.

From raising funds for the resistance party to raising money for President-elect Trump's inauguration — the transformation appears to be complete.

Li has been one of the most vocal critics of the Democrat Party following the election, particularly blasting the Harris campaign repeatedly for essentially setting close to $2 billion on fire and ending her campaign in significant debt.

Now, she's excitedly revealed she "was just appointed to Trump’s inaugural committee!"

Li suggests there are others just like her — former donors to the Democrat Party - who are jumping ship as well.

...

"I’m the first major DNC donor to join," Li stated. "I’ve recruited others ... who are also extremely upset with the DNC."

Li, who less than five months earlier was named by WIRED as a top influencer "shaping the 2024 election" as a "Kamala Harris supporter," now claims she is under a constant barrage of racially motivated attacks on social media for speaking out about the Harris campaign's fleecing of donors.

She says she's been subject to vile insults "on a daily basis simply for asking questions about the Harris campaign’s financial mismanagement."

"I am done with them," Li added. "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."

"Democrats have exposed their racism for all to see — but it was always simmering beneath the surface."

Democrats have criticized Li for quickly abandoning the party following Harris' spectacular implosion in the 2024 presidential election. Has it been a simple awakening? If Trump's inaugural committee is convinced enough to have her on board, that suggests they have confidence in her going forward.

Li torched her former party post-Kamala as having the "stench of loser."

"And I’m sorry, I’m speaking as a Democrat myself, this brings me no joy to say it, but I feel like Democrats are going to be consigned to the wilderness for at least the next four to eight years," she added.

...

Li eventually announced she was leaving the Democrat Party, saying it was akin to "leaving a cult."

She recently told Fox Business that her departure from that cult has led to her being ostracized and subject to "public shaming" online.

In another Fox News interview just weeks ago, she torched Vice President Harris over rumors she was looking to run for governor of California in 2016 or possibly even running again for president 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.

The former DNC fundraiser has expressed an extreme level of optimism over the return of Donald Trump to the Oval Office, suggesting President Biden's successor will carry the American economy to a "new era of prosperity."

"You can just feel it," she said.

On the surface this is good news however, I hope the inside Trump supporters from day one stay wary of this new comer.

The left’s hate for her will complete her conversion.

Most Americans (even on our side) have no clue just how evil the leftists are.

She's welcome to switch parties, but there is no way that I would allow a potential ChiCom asset anywhere near this type of event. Trump's people don't seem to be the sharpest bunch.

This is a Swamp announcement.

The Swamp knows the money will be on the GOP side so all of a sudden they will be GOP-supporting.

Trump’s people know it. This is just someone trying to be famous for being famous.

Trump is not always right!
He said there would be so much winning we would get tired of it and beg him to stop.

Not tired of winning

Asians unlike other races can assimilate very quickly.

Assimilation of course is the foundation of spycraft.

Uh huh. She's an opportunist, not authentic and not to be trusted. She didn't become indignant until it was her own (supposedly) money that was blown.

One of my wife’s sisters thinks I am rude.

Why?

Because I am intentionally rude—to her—and none of the other relatives.

I hope she does take it personally—because it is personal.

Lol.

What happened to Russia, Russia, Russia ?

Being on the inaugural committee is not like letting her run the CIA. Her main functions will be the obvious political message, and raising money.

I wondered when I first heard about this woman's attack from her own DNC -which she was most effective for- if Trump would reach out to her.

Many people tend forget that Donald J. Trump was once himself...
A democrat.
