    Lest we forget she was a consummate centrist.

    We should remember her for her actions through her career as a politician. Where she stood on equality, lgbtq+ rights, the death penalty, government surveillance… How she used her position in the Senate to enrich herself through means not allowed by commoners.

    There are a lot of shit bags in government. And one less doesn’t change that. But let’s not paint her as a champion of anything but herself just because she’s dead.
