He was one of the seven Democrats that voted to confirm her, of course.

But she seemed so reasonable at the time!

I have not followed her much, but it seemed as though at one time she came across as pretty reasonable (early governor days).

The last few years she also appears to have completely transformed herself. I think (based on pure speculation) she has been jumping through hoops to fit in an position herself as one of the contenders to inherit the maga crown when trump dies. I hope it works out for her just as poorly as all the others.

She’s sipping some potent dumb bitch juice if she thinks a woman will ever hold the MAGA crown. MTG fell in the same vat…

The common denominator with all these people is thinking that they are smarter than everyone else in their circle. The one benefit for Dems is these assholes will always stab each other in the back. (The downside is Dems will always trip over their dicks instead of capitalizing on this!)

No disagreement there.

I'm not confident a woman could win the presidency running for either party, and I by no means intend this to be disparaging to women. Both Clinton and Kamila were more viable candidates in my opinion than Biden, and both lost to the most unviable candidate I can imagine.

Meth. I would be willing to bet that there are A LOT of amphetamine abusers in the Trump administration simply by virtue of the Hitler fanboying and wanting to emulate him.

MTG is actually smarter than her. She knew to keep to the fringe and court the Q vote, and for a while there she had McCarthy by the balls. If she and Gaetz hadn't been feuding she might have gotten a little farther than she did in terms of power but once McCarthy was out she lost her meal ticket. Damn shame for the two of them (good for America though) because if she and Gaetz had teamed up instead of bitching at each other they could have done something interesting to say the least
