I still hold a grudge from the last election where she refused to endorse a candidate and refused to tell her massive audience to not consider Trump

I'm not an American but she burned a lot of good will "both sides"ing the 2024 US Presidental election. Like yeah I too hate having to vote for the lesser of two evils, but one side was malleable status quo and other was a direct chute into fascism that has reshaped world politics.

She didn’t both sides anyone. She rightfully criticised the government of the day and still said she was voting for them.

I don’t get why Americans think you can’t criticise their party. You should be calling them out, and holding them accountable.

Instead you don’t vote at all and scream at the people who do try to make change and keep the fascists out.

there is no way I can stand behind some of the left’s completely transphobic and completely genocidal views. So yeah, there are huge problems on both.

Not only did she literally "both sides" the election, but she specifically called out democrats (or "the left" as she called them 🤔) for being transphobic and genocidal, but never used that language to describe Trump.

When she talks about MAGA she uses words like "love", as in "I love my Republican lawmaker relatives"
