But that may not be the point: In 2020, Williamson called out the “sickness” of the American health-care system months before it collapsed under the weight of the pandemic. Could she identify a similar ailment in the nation? With the party apparatus in lockstep with the president, almost certainly not.

If you’ve forgotten the early days of the 2020 Democratic primary, Williamson was among the two-dozen-plus candidates who tried to get some momentum going into the Iowa caucuses. But she does have a knack for catching a glimpse of political attention: You don’t see last cycle’s also-rans like Williamson, who made her name writing best sellers on the power of love and prayer (and occasionally on weight loss), took an outside route in the primary: As other candidates laid out detailed policy plans that would never be enacted, the self-described “bitch for God” focused on the spiritual ailments and historical forces weighing down the nation.
