I think the key part in the video is the “oops” moment where she realizes she shouldn’t have said it on camera. It’s as if she was kind of implying that she’d say such a thing off-camera among like-minded people, but one should never go on record as saying it (or believing it). Her subsequent qualification seems like someone who was trying to stuff the cat back in the bag.

Past her actual words, what was VERY interesting to me was the flavor of the way she said it … especially after the audience began reacting.

The audience’s reaction, and hers to it, was very much like an “in” joke had been told.

/perhaps I’m overthinking it?
