It's called an anxiety disorder. shame and guilt and embarrassment

They don't want others to think they're dirty/unclean/etc so they do this. It's the same reason some people won't call a handyman to fix a problem, or go to a doctor/dentist, they're afraid of someone knowing they couldn't fix or take care of themselves.

This is older news (the Mackinac conference was months ago). Since then:

  1. Karamo and the state party attorney are attempting to sue the trust that owns the local GOP HQ so she can sell it to pay off some of the party debt.

  2. Comerica Bank says the party defaulted on a big loan

  3. a state GOP in-person meeting had their venue cancel due to threats of Israel-Gaza war protestors showing up. Karamo was radio silent to party members and announced an online meeting at the last minute. This pissed a ton of folks off because Karamo does this to control who can speak during meetings. Anti-Karamo party members organized a separate in person meeting where they discussed removing her.

  4. it's revealed instead of the usual millions of dollars the party would have leading into a presidential election year, the party only has around $35k and over $600k debt.

  5. her running mate joined the calls for her removal and the GOP is gathering signatures for her removal.
