I swear I'm sick of hearing her. Not only does she say stupid stuff, but that voice is like nails on a chalkboard while cats try to sing.

She knew she couldn't win the nomination the fair way, or by being thoroughly vetted. So she could do an end run this way instead. (She thinks)

she never had any intention of running for prez. Once she announces that she's not running for the GOP ticket, she loses her marketability, and she can no longer dupe her rube followers into buying her books and other worthless dribble.

As it was,she just made them think there was a chance she may throw her hat in the ring to squeeze as much $$$ out of her gullible breathern as she could. And they bought it hook line and sinker. Idiots.

She's not called "grifter queen" for nothing. With Sarah, the right answer is just about anything that puts bucks in her bank account.
