her pearls and expresses concern on important issues but when it comes down to voting she always sides with what McTurtle and the repubs want her to do.

She's not to be trusted. Now-sitting SCOTUS justices lied to her and the nation to get on the bench so they would eventually be in position to strike down Roe v Wade (the republican plan for decades). Collins is well aware of that plan and is now positioning herself to be against a bill to codify abortions that will sink the decades-long republican plan, which is why I say she and her concerns are fake.
