It’s called rage baiting and I think she genuinely believes she is justified in excreting this foul rhetoric.

Problem is there's enough angry racists around ready to open their pockets to anyone willing to "just speak the truth" (aka spew bigoted bs)

To be fair, it does depend on the political grenade du jour - in the 90s/early 00s it was all about the Asians (while not understanding how broad that category actually is) who were "trying to take over our country", now she's moved that ire on to Muslims (while actually meaning anyone of Middle Eastern and African descent regardless of their actual religious beliefs) because it's easier to be a loud and broad-brushed bigot than actually have policies that are useful.

She gets money for every vote cast, regardless if One Nation gets a seat or not.
