If she was serious about leaving the Demonrat party, she would switch to the Republican party, or at least become an independent but caucus with the Republicans. As long as she continues to caucus with the Demonrats like Bernie and Angus King do, she is for all intents and purposes still a Demonrat in every way that matters (who controls the committees, who makes the senate rules for the next 2 years, who controls the day to day agenda on the senate floor, etc.), and it is crystal clear that she is not actually abandoning the Demonrats.

This is nothing more than an act to make the normies get all excited that the Demonrats are losing a senator. They aren't, they're just losing one of their (D) markings on paper. They stole the Georgia race from Walker, and this is their way of making the idiots in the population think that we flipped a seat in a roundabout way. Unfortunately, it will work because there are a lot of ignorant morons who know nothing about how our republic is supposed to work.
