In her very minor defense, that's what she's saying. MTG isn't exactly doing a face turn here, but she is at least holding on to some semblance of consistency.
I mean I'd like to be charitable here too.
Also all and all a bit rich but if she'll melt off even a sliver of support for Trump or help fracture MAGA, of course I'll oblige.
It kind of makes me sick, but I do somewhat feel like she might be our best hope.
