    The term nihilist gets thrown around a lot, but I really can't think of any other term to describe her. Everything I've read about her is just one contradiction after another.

      She's not making any demands for the major legislation she's blocking, and apparently whatever money she's receiving from lobbyists right now is peanuts. She's also lost any support from the moderate wing of the party, making it near certain that she'll lose her primary. It's totally nihilistic because she's literally not gaining anything if value here. Like this isn't a cynical calculation, it isn't her trying to extract stuff for her state, she's seemingly doing this for fun. It's insane.

      Edit: she's like a batman movie villain, there's just no motivation for her actions, she just wants to cause chaos :jokerfied:
