Not that she was really much of a Democrat to begin with, but when she runs as DeSantis' VP choice maybe she'll have better words and thought.  

That whole "what about the white people" bit will get her a bunch of support too.

She said two different versions of a word in separate paragraphs, and that means that her thought is incoherent?

Just believing in the game. Try to get support, get your name out there, rise up, gain more influence, more important people, more money to spend on the career. Nothing one says on that path matters or has weight. Party change, why not, just hand her the latest soundbits out of the spectrum and roll with it. Warmongering and dragging the country in a nuclear confrontation is creative since it's more what a Russian bot would bring up, wonder why she left out blaming NATO for the Ukraine war, but that might follow. Russian narratives, why not. The rest is boring, for the elites instead of for the people (elites need things like universal healthcare apparently), open borders, demonizing police (in contrast to the Republican Capitol storm deniers that call FBI and law enforcement bought and corrupt and anti-Trump? OK), hostile to people of faith... a bunch of BS that just plays well.

The only thing I wonder is why anyone cares about this person. It's probably because of her good looks. Don't know what else it could be really.

Her name's already out there. She was a candidate for President. 

She's NOT catering to the masses or the crazy direction that the left is going, and you think she has no principle and is just trying to advance her career?

You'll have to explain that one because that's backwards logic.

I guess in fairness everyone of note has to be a loudmouth these days. 

If she were trying to take in the cult mentality and culture BS, she'd be switching from Republican to Democrat!

Republicans are the conservative party that believes in protecting the borders and a strong America that prevents a nuclear war, and you're saying she's an opportunist?
