#167 Lindy Li - Obama’s Third Term, Kamala Paying BeyoncĂ©, Cardi B, and Oprah

Well, I grew up in suburban Pennsylvania, and that was Democratic, so my local congressman actually was a veteran named Joe Sestak. Have you heard of him? He was a three-star admiral. And so it was almost by default. I interned for him starting at age 13, and then it was Obama. He was elected when I was 17 years old, so I was fully indoctrinated. I went to Princeton.

It's like a very, very liberal bastion. Being a conservative there was hard. A blemish. He just couldn't. I can think of like two conservatives, two Republicans. It was just not a thing you could do. It was the age of Obama. People were enthralled by him. So it wasn't an option to be a Democrat. I actually didn't realize until recently that I could be a Republican.

And let me remind you, I live in Philadelphia where there's this eight to one voter registration difference. It's not okay to be a Republican. You're ostracized. I've lost all my friends, Sean. They were fake. I mean, I actually had someone berating me, someone whom I thought was a friend. He was texting me. He basically said, how could you? You can never reply to questions like that.
