Sinema, a dumbass at the highest level

I have a hard time having any sympathy for her when she, and elected official, won't respond or answer her own constituents, or any other normal person she effects, concerns. She sure as hell doesn't share that lack of response when it comes to attending to her big time donors, especially lately. When going after her like that is the only resort left to make her face any kind of repercussions for her decisions it gets harder to blame the people doing it. Better avenues are available to her if Sinema doesn't like it, and she choose to run.

While I'd rather stuff not come to that either, activist have to be loud, seen, and unavoidable to make anything happen. If all anybody ever did was protest quietly in their house alone in the dark with the lights off for fear of making people uncomfortable nothing would ever get done. It would be worthless. That's not just now but pretty much any type of activism throughout history. A giant part of the point is to make people uncomfortable because one, it's harder to be ignored then, and two because it doesn't allow the public at large to use escapism to brush it's problems aside.

Plus, she's a corrupt bitch so it's even harder for me to care. I'd like to think that what she's down will cost her seat next election, but even if that happens I'm sure there is a sweat ass lobbying gig waiting for her somewhere after all this is done.

Doug Ducey? He won a statewide election in 2018 with 56% of the vote. Both Kelly and Sinema won their elections with 51% and 50% of the votes, respectively. Both needed to to cobble together coalitions to win which is why Sinema is being obstinate. AZ is getting bluer, but it is not quite there yet.

I'm pragmatic, and you are correct, that's why I've mostly refrained from criticizing Sinema and Manchin too harshly because their political realities in Arizona and West Virginia don't afford the luxury of thumbing their noses at their "conservative" constituents. Additionally, Obamacare should have taught Joe Biden and Chuck Schumer that they can't drag out legislative negotiations, but how much legislation has been accomplished since Biden was sworn in? Drag your heels, fellas, let the Republicants run out the clock. :rolleyes:

How much? Not much. About as much as Mitch would have passed.

Mitch hit the legislation jackpot when Trump signed the tax cuts package, that one raping of the electorate will tide him over for a long time, he was content to pack the courts after that.

Trevor Noah last night:

By the way, give it up for Kyrsten Sinema. Whoever thought we’d see the day in American politics when a senator could be openly bisexual, but closeted Republican? That’s progress.
 
So she finally quit poorly pretending she's a Democrat like she's done for years now. Meh. :rolleyes:

Now she doesn't have to have humiliation of being an incumbent yet also having her ass handed to her in a primary. Not that it matters as she will be getting the money from her corporate masters for years now.
