My High School English teacher would have ripped the first sentence to shreds.

Come on, fellow conservatives. Let’s write clearly and well.

Yeah, instead of outdid, the author should have written outdone.

I’m a high school English teacher and I concur. “may have outdid,” lol. It’s a nice, juicy run-on sentence.

Hey, she was probably very nervous in putting out her views on this. Give her a break. Sometimes I get so emotiional and type so fast that I make mistakes too. We All DO!!!So what?

I would think the message right now is much more important than an incorrect word. When such a powerful message from someone like Ms. Powers who is usually opposite from my view I personally accept it and admire her defense of our Freedom of Speech.
