And since government works by law a lot better than it does by coercion (see, e.g., Minneapolis; Portland; L.A.), while she’s wildly out of line, I have to ask: what the hell is she talking about?
(I put this in the category of Trump threatening to sign an executive order to take over national elections. Delusional fictions, something this administration seems to be retreating to more and more.)
A surprising number of liberals are taking it at face value.
