There’s also that despite being batshit crazy, she did push for a bill to both stop weapons from going to Isreal, and to release the Epstein files. She at least occasionally did something we agreed with, even if for the wrong reasons. She will likely just be replaced with some dipshit who won’t rock the fascist boat. She was proving to be an occasionally useful idiot and will just be replaced by an idiot.
Is it possible to somehow be worse than MTG by being a totally consistent dipstick? Yes, albeit by a fairly slim margin. In the current political climate, is that likely to actually happen despite the low odds? Also yes. Do I think that’s a good argument in putting up with that knuckle dragging yahoo being a publicly elected official? Eeh. Not too sure about that one.
If it was possible for her to be replaced by someone progressive you’d have a point. I don’t think it is though. I don’t want a potentially competent fascist replacing her. She probably did more harm to her party by sticking around, even just by going completely mask off to show other people how fucking crazy the conservatives are.
Yes in an ideal world you’re right, but we’re so far gone from that point that I would likely rather have her than whoever will replace her.
Good news? Not really. I wanted to watch an old fashioned brawl between idiots.
Hm, yeah. I suppose there’s that.
