I think it does a disservice to real heroes to throw her in with them. To quote a famous bad guy from The Incredibles, “When everybody’s super, nobody’s super.”
I heard most of her speech. The service she did was to separate all the over-the-top emotional outrage, that had no factual basis, from the real analysis of his professional life and judicial decisions. There were things she said I disagreed with, but I commend her for clearly giving her reasons to confirm based on facts and logic and not on ridiculous platitudes (All women must be believed!, etc.)
“Hero” probably isn’t the word we’re looking for. But she did a good thing and we’re grateful for it. In the future she will probably aggravate us as she’s done in the past. In short, we love her tonight but won’t respect her in the morning.
He’s right.
