Because she equates voting in Trump and/or the GOP to control congress as the will of the people. Which is true in a very limited, technical view. That lets her ignore polls that show 70% (or whatever the number is) of the people support something.

In other words it's not "the will of the people" she supports it's the "will of the winner"
