I wonder if she is serious,or if she just switched parties because she knew she couldn't beat her opponent by running as a fellow Dim?

In other words,a "Conversion of convenience instead of conscience".
Anyone who isn't paranoid in 2021 just isn't thinking clearly!

If she is to be believed this is the correct stance on the reason to switch.
