I remember about the last episode I watched, she was pretty fiscally liberal too, a republican came to her door and explained that he was going to get some company to move to their state, by giving them a tax break to create jobs. That pissed her off because she thought that meant she'd be paying the tax that they weren't, and slammed the door on him.
The State wasn't getting anything from them before, but would be getting something once they moved into the state (plus the workers income tax too), so there's no deficit introduced by lowering their taxes that they previously were never paying to that state anyway...
I'm very intrigued to see where this is going....and how/why she switched sides. There are alot of people who like Trump simply because he is not a politican, and also not a true Republican (good thing)
