Contemptuous of the electorate, which is toxic during elections.

When people confronted her, she smirked and leaned into defensive body posture. It seemed to me like she was surprised she would face such questions after gracing Maine with her candidacy after having been recruited hard by Schumer and Gillibrand.

After I saw her town hall, I knew she wasn't going to win.
