It depends. If they are an obvious grifter like MTG, hell yes I’m better than her. She has shown no contrition, no growth, no regret for the horrible policies she’s pushed forth. This is not a person who wants to genuinely make the country a better place, she’s a piece of shit who senses a better deal elsewhere.
This is like seeing a person willing to cheat with you and thinking, “I should start a genuine relationship with this person; they would surely never cheat on me.”
Okay let’s remove the “are we better than her” part, do you think that her stance here is entirely null and void because of the person she is? Would you change your mind if Bernie said it?
I’m not saying you have to start a relationship with her or start pioneering her cause, but if you’re going to discount a point you might agree with because of the person, what’s the point of making policies in the first place? We might as well hit full send and send politics to where I see it going, just put the candidates on a tinder like app with no more than a tweet of what they’re about, have them put on a red or blue tie and be done with it. No need for nuance, just vote based on looks, hell, we don’t even need the blurbs at the bottom.
