and across the country will pour in to support whoever runs against her in the Democratic primary. Democrats in AZ almost universally despise her, as only a traitor can be despised.

She doesn't care one whit about what Democrats in Arizona, and nationally, think, or want.

I suspect that this is just her first move toward becoming a Republican. If she does enough damage to democracy, the United States, and the the Democratic party to become beloved by Republicans between now and Nov. 2024, she'll switch parties and run as a full blown Republican.
