If you didn’t know who Rina Shah was before you clicked on this post, you will by the time you’re finished reading it. And then you may very well forget all about her again, because despite her efforts to make a name for herself as a Principles First™ Resistance Republican, she’s ultimately just another wannabe Crusader for Democracy™ with delusions of #NeverTrump grandeur, ultimately destined to fade into oblivion like so many of the others.
But anyway, let’s talk about her, shall we? Here’s her bio from Principles First:
She’s a peach, isn’t she? An Evan McMullin campaign alumna and founder of Republican Women for Biden!
Anyway, she’s got a message for anyone out there who doubts the clout that someone like Rina Shah has:
I am a Republican woman who believes in the right to choose, the right to same-sex marriage, and banning assault weapons.
There are millions of women like me ready to elect pro-democracy candidates in November.

There are actually plenty of Republicans and conservatives who have no problem with same-sex marriage (though some take issue with it being a federal governmental matter). But as far as abortion and gun control are concerned … it sounds like Rina might need to re-evaluate some things.
I am a vegan who enjoys pork chops, tri tip BBQ and fried chicken.

That’s Rina Shah, basically.
So, in other words, you're planning on voting for Democrats, right?
— Claire Splan (@ClaireSplan) July 20, 2022
Yes.
You are not a Republican.

She, in fact, is not.
Why do you still consider yourself a Republican if you have to make a statement such as this?

So, why are you a republican?

She doesn’t actually believe she’s a Republican. She just chooses to identify as one because she knows it pays way better to be a liberal pretending to be Republican or conservative than it does to just be honest with the people whose money you’re trying to get.

Come on now, Rina. Just be honest already. It’s actually very liberating.
