Indeed, instead they pretended he wasn't running in four years, and when they did run against him, it was to court Republican voters (the majority of her campaign).

This was in spite of the well-known mathematical fact that an Independent issue must be campaigned on to win an election. Instead, they were "hoping" (officially) Rs would change their mind.

Can't argue with the money they made to do this though, a billion dollars is a new record, especially when she just had a few months. It took Trump FOUR YEARS to raise 900 million or so, she did it in about four months. Amazing, unheard amounts of Super-PAC money made this happen, she did what she was paid to do.

This is all public information, they don't even bother to hide it any longer, it's now LEGAL (because as you know, corporations are people and money is free speech).

I have been an Unafilliated Independent since the day I first registered to vote in 1977. The Independent voting base is larger than either the Democratic or MAGA voting base. Literally EVERY single national political race in America is decided by the Independent voter.

Neither side can count on my vote. They have to earn it, every time.
