Jillian Michaels says leaving the left felt like 'Neo in the Matrix' and warns it 'comes for everyone'

Jillian Michaels described evolving her political views as like Neo in "The Matrix."

"Honestly, it felt a bit like Neo in the Matrix at first because I really did think that, you know, when you're on the left, like you're the empathetic one, you're the good guy, you're the one that cares about people," the 52-year-old fitness icon told Dave Rubin on his "The Rubin Report" podcast.

Part of her evolution involved marrying a conservative "who let me know that that wasn’t the case," she added.
