30. I don't think she's bright enough to realize any of that...
I think she believes her own hype, and that she and her followers, also ignorant, are on the same low-level wavelength. I don't believe there's anything calculated about it, beyond the initial calculations and perception studies used by the GOTP before they matched her with Grampy McCain.
