34. I can't speak for Janet's team, as I don't know them
Fri Oct 24, 2025, 12:59 AM
Oct 2025

But this kind of gutter fighting is just not her style, quite aside from whether it benefits her. She‘s pretty direct and straightforward. Anyone willing to tell Trump, „I‘ll see you in court“ to his face while the network TV cameras were rolling doesn‘t need to resort to propaganda wars of insinuation.

Frankly, Janet‘s time as governor, her willingness to stand up to Trump on camera, and a simple comparison to the Concern of Collins should be enough to send her to Capitol Hill
