She’s running for president. She may not be as dumb as I thought. 

One may argue that only cements the idea that she's an idiot.  What sane person wants that job?!?!?

I get the feeling she came into Congress thinking everyone (on one side of the aisle) was crooked with a bit of a naivety to her that allowed her to entertain conspiracy theories.  Now that she's there, she's seeing it's more bickering then work and is realizing it's not a D or R thing.  As she's not your normal politician, she's simply reporting back on what she sees.

I still wouldn't want to put her in a position of power, but my guess is a good chunk of folks go into politics like her and are quickly dismayed.  Unlike her, most shut their mouth and follow the party line regardless though.

She’s been going after Trump and moderating for a while now. I think she is either going to run for president or statewide office. Herschel Walker failed to win so she knows she has to be more moderate to win.

Honestly, I don't think she's smart enough to try and pretend to move to the middle.  She also is still a big Trump supporter, she's just seeing some things that I think most of us assume others in the republican party see as well, she's just vocal about it, even if it doesn't align with what Trump wants out of her.

That's going to be a tricky balance for her. Unless she successfully completes a transformative makeover in the next year, she's never going to get the center to center-right in a 2028 election, and the red hats will dismiss her as a RINO.

Area man that voted for guy with 34 felony convictions calls em all crooks.

And when good and ethical law markers like the Elizabeth Warren's and Jon Ossoff's of the world try to propose legislation to reform the campaign finance system, get rid of Citizens United, have public financing of campaigns, or ban Congressional stock trading, we're told that's socialism and it's bad. Doesn't seem bad to me. Seems good.
