    No she doesn’t, but her base is ignorant enough to see that as a line they aren’t willing to cross, and she’s not against pandering.

    She represents morons who would be entirely disenfranchised if it weren’t for their providing a voice to billionaires, and allowing the left a way to progress as slowly as possible towards their goals.

      It’s Poe’s law. With US politicians, you can never be sure.

    That’s why you should only vote for politicians who finished middle school successfully. If this idiot hadn’t been asleep in biology, she would know that this is the most stupid bullshit ever. The only thing that got her in office is that her voters are probably even dumber than her.

      Maybe because they’re too invested in the problems to want to solve them

    You know she’s from Mississippi because she looks like a Karen from the 80’s. Look at those dated ass bangs.
