she created a company with a fake product that didn't actually work, surrounded herself with support from bankers and politicians, and convinced investors to give her 9 figures worth of venture capital startup to do it....


and she's the crazy one?

Absolutely. She's either boring, or a total freak that's going to throw your dick in her butt while you're in full stride.

I recall watching a story on her where they mentioned she changed her voice. Yep, sociopath.

Did Elizabeth Holmes Fake Her Deep Voice? (less than 2 minute video.)

She’s the type that would send 800 text messages and slice your tires and threaten to kill herself if you break up with her

Doesn’t matter, she talks like she’s in 80s slow motion.

Actually, I think there is a little bit of both. She had this idea that she would do something that would change the world and save lives and once she figured out how she wanted to do it, she was so focused on making it happen that she didn't want to believe her idea wasn't possible.

But her business ethics were questionable at best.

Living the dream.

Literally.

Too bad people bought in on it early on and let it snowball.

Sociopath that was given far too much latitude because of social justice and the need for the media (financial) to latch onto any woman who they think will be more successful than men.

Her ripping off Jobs and the black turtle neck was a big enough flag.

Fixed that for ya.

Except it probably wouldn't be near the bed, it would be in a bay window so everybody could watch.
