False. To retain 100% disability first of all means that you cannot work. [/quote]

That isn't true - you can't work if you have total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU), which is when your combined rating is less than 100% but there is a finding you can't work.  If you have a scheduler 100% rating you are allowed to work if you actually can despite your disabilities.  Most people with a 100% rating can't possibly work, but some do.  There can be a 100% rating for profound hearing loss, for example, and a person could still work in some jobs.[/quote]
These are rare edge cases and if you do work it reduces your benefits.

There is zero evidence that this woman’s husband is one of these edge cases and it’s notable that she refuses to answer the direct question of what her husbands disability determination is. She owes an explanation. [/quote]

No, she does not. [/quote]
When you run for public office, transparency is both demanded and owed. Your finances in particular become subject to public scrutiny. Standards for scrutiny are also higher for recipients of public benefits. For example, access to housing vouchers can be subject to drug screening, testing and criminal background checks. Trying to assert that she should be held to a lesser standard of transparency and scrutiny than other politicians is not a good look.
