The next time I see her I’ll let her know that Sharpiemarker told me thst I shouldn’t bother asking. /s

Seriously though, that point I was making was more rhetorical in the context of this conversation, but generally speaking, when you get in someone’s face about something and you press them on the matter, then they tend to have to put real thought behind their stance and defend it, versus just saying stuff for political intake.

TL;DR: it’s rhetorical dude/dudette, relax.
