    Pobody’s nerfect. She’s more of a smokescreen for others in her party so they can keep on doing shady shit while she makes headlines with a pants-on-head-stupid quote of the day (plus a hint of dogwhistle to harvest outrage clicks).

      But she was elected directly by actual people, wasn’t she? It’s not like she was put in an office by her party alone, people voted for her - as far as I remember even after the Jewish space laser incident.

      And that’s fucking scary. I don’t think the smoke screen theory is wrong, but it seems more like a collateral benefit. People in the US are stupid, brainwashed or insane enough to elect a person like her into a position of power.
