    I don’t understand her political journey in the slightest. I lived in Arizona at the time and voted for her. What the fuck happened?

        Bullshit. She billed herself as a progressive, and had bonafides to match at the time. When she got into the Senate, she pivoted hard without warning to be “Mccain, lite,” even going so far as to emulate his iconic “thumbs down” vote on killing obamacare as he died of cancer. Her thumbs down was to defeat partially ending the senates fillibuster, killing a progressive cause instead. She was more regressive than McCain while aping him.

        It wasn’t a lack of research. She was just a snake hiding in the grass. Now shes out and hissing, and no one is going to keep her in their garden.
