Lindy Li Leaves Democratic Party, Calls It Cult

Lindy Li, a prominent fundraiser for the Democratic National Committee (DNC), has announced her departure from the Democratic Party, labeling it a 'cult.' Li, who raised millions for Kamala Harris and often defended her, faced severe backlash after criticizing Harris's campaign spending and expressing support for a Republican defense secretary nominee. Following her remarks on Fox News, where she described the Democrats as having a 'stench of loser,' Li experienced a significant social media backlash, losing 40,000 followers and facing derogatory attacks from within the party. She emphasized her disappointment with the party's reaction to dissent, stating that it reflects a lack of true inclusivity and diversity. Li's criticisms highlight her concerns about financial mismanagement within the party, including extravagant spending during the campaign. Her departure underscores a growing divide within the Democratic Party regarding its leadership and direction.
