Following the 2024 United States presidential election, Li transitioned from being a supporter to being a critic of the Democratic Party. Li described the campaign of former Vice President Kamala Harris as a "$1 billion disaster," saying that Democratic donors were misled by the campaign to believe "that this is an eminently winnable race".[50] In an interview on America's Newsroom, Li intensified her criticism, saying "I lost tens of thousands of followers because I dared to tell the truth. Because in a cult, you can't tell the truth," and ridiculed the notion of Harris running for Governor of California in 2026.

In January 2025, Li told Fox Business "I've been a conservative all my life".[51][52] In an interview on Fox News, Li made clear she would no longer be supporting the Democratic Party stating that "leaving the Democratic Party or even questioning the Democratic Party is like leaving a cult. It's terrifying. I don't want to be a part of this craziness anymore." Li also expressed support for Pete Hegseth, Trump's nominee for Secretary of Defense.[53][54][55] Li announced she was raising money for Trump and Republicans, despite her previously sharp criticism of Trump.[56]
