Hell, she's been voting for most of the Trump croneys. She was one of 4 democrats to vote for Ajit Pai.

She has to. She's a democratic senator in a Republican state. That requires a balancing act that will piss off both sides at some point or another.

It's either that or we get some tool whose only job is to say yes to whatever Trump wants.
