Is she really that integral to getting those initiatives through though?

Now that I've had coffee and thought about it... She's not seeking the senate seat anymore. But if thats for show, then this drama makes sense. Have the "falling out" now and call her a Rino, so that they come to her for the senate seat thinking she's "seen the light", she graciously accepts the nomination after much "convincing" by senate Rinos, and now Trump has another chess piece in the senate.
