I'm fine with her, although I think she got snookered into the 1/6 group.
I'm fine with both Manchin and Cheney. It makes a change for politicians to do something they actually believe in.
The assumption that she's in it for the money and fame, whereas Donald Trump is doing what is right for the country seems a little, well, what's a polite word for it?
I make no claims about Trump’s pure motives. But I could not be more skeptical of the notion that grandstanding about what a shitbag Trump is, is an act of heroism and courage and principle. That attitude in fact is all but prerequisite for a very broad set of social climbing objectives.

I concede it does seem more like stating the obvious.
