I only voted for Rudy. Many of these people engage in grift, but I use the word more sparingly. Rudy is a transparent grifter.

None. "Grifter" is a silly word used by silly people.

Hawley's populist shtick is an obvious grift.

I don't think Giuliani is a grifter, I think he is genuinely mentally ill.

Everyone else is (mostly) legitimate in their beliefs and behavior.

The real question is, which of these politicians could be described as "mask off" and/or not clowns but the whole circus?

I don't think Giuliani is a grifter. I think he's senile and genuinely believes he's fighting the good fight, to all our great amusement.

I remember hearing on a podcast that Rudy and a woman working with him both collected hundreds upon millions of dollars from people thinking they were "fighting the election results" or something. Rudy got a huge windfall from it all.
ok, I think this was it.

Why hasn't Sinema got more votes?

She seems almost the personification of grift to me.

The actual answer is that all of them are to a certain extent, because all of them are bought by corporate donors to an extent.
