I liked her in 2019, and was disappointed with the reception she got. I think she was the first of the female primary candidates that year to be hit with the, “I don’t know, there’s just something about her that rubs me the wrong way” wave.
I also think she’s learned from her mistakes back then, and will have really good advisors now.
But the best thing about her in my view, is, as has already been mentioned, that the things she (so far) has been getting attacked on, she and her supporters just embrace. Yes, she has a loud and enthusiastic laugh. That’s awesome, and you only think it’s not because you want women to be quiet and demure. She said that thing about the coconut – lets post coconut tree emoji to show support. I hope that reflects her sense of humor about herself.
At the GOP convention, they of course mentioned her being the “border czar” but other than that, they mostly just intentionally mispronounced her name.
